Abstract:
Computer files used for the compilation of the memorial listing c. 25,000 Jewish and non-Jewish prisoners interned at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp near Celle, Germany (both those who perished and those who survived) published in 1995 as: Gedenkbuch : Häftlinge des Konzentrationslagers Bergen-Belsen. These data files contain information not included in the published book version.
Language and Other Notes:
- Text in German.
- Cataloger-assigned title.
- Special Note-- It appears that this data set has been incorporated into the Survivors Registry's 'USHMM NameSearch' utility (staff version at http://staff.ushmm.org/namesearch/) as "Bergen-Belsen Camp Records", but linked with with an erroneous provenance description therein claiming that the data are: "Alphabetical list of Jews from the Netherlands who were liberated from the concentration camp Bergen-Belsen and/or resident there after it became a Displaced Persons Camp. List includes last name, first name, date and place of birth, occupation, other addresses, type of passport (if any), names of family members (where applicable), and post-war destination if known. Provenance: Prepared by the Joodsche Coordinatie Commissie (=Comité juif hollandais) in Geneva, Switzerland (16, rue du Marché, Genève, SUISSE), now held by Yad Vashem Archives (place of birth. 3477, Jerusalem 91034, ISRAEL). Photocopy prepared by Sarah Ogilvie, Summer 1998.", instead of the data used to compile 'Gedenkbuch : Häftlinge des Konzentrationslagers Bergen-Belsen,' which they in fact are.
- NOTE WELL: The 1995 edition of the 'Gedenkbuch : Häftlinge des Konzentrationslagers Bergen-Belsen' derived from these computer files has been superseded by the considerably expanded 2nd edition of the same title published in 2 volumes in 2005.
Resource Center Cataloging Notes:
Copies of these data files were obtained by the Survivors Registry ca. May 1996.
