Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Memorial Day) starts this evening. For the past two years, I listed the names of the 250+ families members I've found who were murdered in the Holocaust.
It's been rather disconcerting (to say the least) to find vital records identifying another branch of my family--and then trace those relatives forward in time to find that all or most had been murdered during the Holocaust. This is my one small way to make sure they are all remembered--all 259 of those currently on this list.
I'm currently going through a new batch of records which unfortunately I think will generate more names for next year's list. But for now, remember these 259, and the millions of others.
May their memories be for a blessing. יהי זכרם ברוך.

Lara, I wish I could name all of my Schwartz family members who were murdered. Still researching with the hope that I will be able to list them by name and keep their memories alive (may their memories be for a blessing).
ReplyDeleteMay their memories be for a blessing, and may you be blessed for remembering them and naming them.
