Austrian, Czech, and German Jews in Riga
(Latvia)
Unpublished Manuscript
http://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/riga/riga.html
Contributor's Introduction
After the war, some survivors, wandering around what had been the Riga
ghetto, found parts of a notebook and some sheets and scraps of paper.
These turned out to be work detail and sick call lists for forced
Jewish laborers. Although they were water damaged, weathered and
wrinkled, the lists were generally legible. The pages were brought to
Israel and are held in the archives of the Association of Latvian and
Estonian Jews in Israel, located in Kibbutz Shefayim. They were found
there by an amateur genealogist, Martha Levinson Lev-Zion, who
recognized their historical significance and forwarded them to me for
computerization.

Up to now, while much had been written as to what happened to the
thousands of Jews deported to Riga,virtually no name lists had been
found other than partial transport lists. These lists, all from
1942-43, fall into two categories-- work details and sick call lists,
i.e. lists of persons who were either totally or partially excused
from work details. The 867 names which appear on these lists consist
of Jewish men and women from Austria, Czechoslovakia and Germany, ages
14 to 72. The information on each person varies widely. In some cases
only the name appears. In some, the date of birth is given and in
others, age. In some cases a town is listed by a name. While I
originally thought that this indicated the place of birth or
deportation, after checking with other lists, I found that this was
not the case, and the city name may indicate little other than the
work group to which an individual was assigned. In a few cases a name
was crossed out. In such cases I have put parentheses around the name.
In no case is the ultimate fate of these persons given.

However, researchers interested in the fate of German Jews sent to
Riga may wish to compare these names with the lists of German Jews
sent from Riga to Stutthof, a list which is available on JewishGen.

As noted above, the material is in poor condition. All the information
contained in these lists has been entered, but if any researcher feels
a particular need to have a copy of a page referring to his/her
relative, he/she may write to me at to request a copy.
