Abstract:
Alphabetical listing of the names of 480 Jews, presumed to have died of "natural causes" from July 1943 through March 1945 but not included in the Gedenkbuch Berlins der jüdischen Opfer des Nationalsozialismus (1995). This list is taken from Gestapo material in the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (1996 A.0342, reel 3), and includes family and given name, date of birth, date of death, place of birth, place of residence and page number.
Language and Other Notes:
- "Covers the period from July 1943 through March 1945"
- "This article focuses on a tiny segment of the collection, the names of 483 Jews, primarily from Berlin, whose names do not appear in any Gedenkbuch, and who also were not survivors. For those readers who like riddles, let them guess who these persons might be. The answer is they consist of Jews who died of 'natural causes', if anything in the life of a Jew in Berlin in the 1940s might be considered 'natural'. They are not listed in the major memorial books since their editors had decided that only persons who had been murdered or had committed suicide should be included."
