[Cz-L] From Bukovina via Mechelen/Belgium to Auschwitz 1942-1944

Czernowitzers...

24,909 Jews have been deported from Belgium via the SS-Sammellager in the Dossin Barracks in Mechelen/Belgium to Auschwitz, among them at least 104 deportees, who originated from Bukovina. The pictures of 97 out of these 104 deportees give the genocide a face. Read more at

or at our ehpes.com Blog. Leon Messing, born on 12 June 1927 in Czernowitz, was 15 years old and the youngest deportee from Bukovina on the date of departure of Transport 10 on 15 December 1942. The oldest deportee from Bukovina was Abraham Moses Reder, born on 17 August 1866 in Czernowitz, i. e. he was 76 years old on the date of deportation on Transport 11 of 26 September 1942. Just like my uncle Maximilian Hauster, born on 26 November 1909 in Czernowitz, deported with  Transport 19 of 14 January 1943 to Auschwitz, neither would return in 1945. We have compiled a listing - in alphabetical order - of those 104 deportees, who had their roots in Bukovina:

Only two women and two men out of these 104 deportees survived after 8 May
1945: Sara Adler and Theresia Breitner from Czernowitz, Wilhelm Beerler
from Nepolokoutz and Juda Meier Fleischer from Siret. 96,2% of the
people originated from Bukovina deported on these in total 29 transports
 were wiped out.
