Abstract:
"The publication contains a list of persons who died in the years 1940-1945 [in] KL Gross-Rosen (when it was a branch of KL Sachsenhausen), and later when the KL Gross Rosen was a separate camp. The work contains also names of former prisoners who died immediately after the war in the camp hospitals of Sowie Gory. The main sources for the compilation are the German documents kept in the Archiwum Panstwowego Muzeum Gross-Rosen (originals and microforms). The names are arranged in two sequences: chronologically by date of death, and alphabetically by last name. The entries contain: name, date and place of birth, date of death, nationality, citizenship, faith. The list contains 8887 names. The introduction is in Polish, English, Yiddish, German, and Russian."--[Excerpt from: "Biographical Sources for Poland--Victims of War" at http://www.library.uiuc.edu/spx/class/Biography/Polishbio/polvictims.htm].
