Abstract:
"Sachsenhausen, located in Oranienburg, just north of Berlin, was one of the earliest concentration camps, opened in 1938. Initially it was primarily used to hold Jews and political prisoners but in later years it functioned as a forced labor camp and most of its prisoners were non-Jews from Germany and all over Europe. The camp prepared daily lists, Veränderungsmeldungen, of arrivals (Zugang) and departures (Abgang), which included deaths. The nearly 5,000 persons included in this collection are listed by name, prisoner number and, where available, by date of birth and death. The dates listed in this material reflect the date the report was filed, which in some cases may differ from a date of death by a day or two. These names were taken from material held at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, RG 006.025*26. The material categorizes the prisoners in various ways. Many of these categories, such as Berufsverbrecher, Arbeitsscheuer and &175, were applied in an extremely arbitrary manner and, in light of this and privacy considerations, they have been excluded from the material. Persons seeking such information on individuals for genealogical or other personal reasons may contact Peter Landé at pdlande@cs.com and this information will be sent to them. Other categories such as Polnisch (Polish), Jude (Jewish), Bibelforscher (Seventh Day Adventist) or Schutzhäftling (literally protected prisoner, but basically a generic category for persons held for other reasons) have been retained. The time period chosen for this collection was completely arbitrary and there is considerably more filmed material at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and at the Sachsenhausen Gedenkstätte, Strasse der Nationen 22, 16515 Oranienburg, Germany. Over 100,000 (check) persons were held at some time between 1938 and 1945 in Sachsenhausen and about 38,000 (check) died there. This limited list will, however, I hope, serve to illustrate the nature of the broader system and perhaps help some persons seeking information on friends and relatives. -- Peter W. Landé, February 1, 2002"--[Explanatory document at: S:\DATA\REGLISTS\Sachskgb\Sachsenhausen List.doc]
