Abstract:
Alphabetically arranged list of Jewish people living in the area of Washington, DC (Virginia/Maryland). Some of them appear to be survivors whilst others do not. Each entry contains last name, first name, name of spouse (if applicable), current address and phone number. Handwritten annotated notes define whether the person is a survivor or not, and if so, whether or not they are in the USHMM Registry of Jewish Holocaust Survivors.
Language and Other Notes:
- Text in English.
- Cataloguer assigned title.
- A cataloguing checksheet, dated September 1993 has been completed, stating that "Sarah Ogilvie and Rachel Mersky attended this gathering. Many participants were hesitant to register because they didn't consider themselves to be survivors [...]"
- The list is clearly a record of some sort of gathering, but the precise nature of the gathering is unclear.
- Each entry is marked with "N.S." ("no survivor"), "S" ("survivor"), "R" ("registered") or "N.R." ("not registered").
