The following text has been revised to correct information about
Novogrudok during the Holocaust:

The pre-war Jewish community of Novogrudok numbered about 6000. More
than 10000 Jews, most from Novogrudok and the district, were killed
in Novogrudok and, except for 52, were not buried at the Jewish
cemetery. The place in the cemetery where the 52 victims were buried
on the 26 of July 1941 is unknown. 250 Jews escaped from the Ghetto
through a 250 meter long tunnel. Of those 170 reached the Bielski
partisans and survived, the others were killed on the way.
