Benjamin and Vladka Meed Registry of Jewish Holocaust Survivors 2000

Book excerpt: "This book is based on the records of the Benjamin and Vladka Meed Registry of Jewish Holocaust Survivors. The Registry is a computer database that lists more than 170,000 names of Holocaust survivors and some members of their families. The American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors first established a national registry in 1981 to document the lives of survivors who came to the United States after World War II ... The Registry includes the names of Holocaust survivors who are now deceased, but does not indicate that they have passed away ... this published version only includes information about the survivors based on their individual files."--Introduction
