Hi Rick,
I know that my grandparents Joseph and Feyge Levin were on such a Dead March=
together with their two daughters Dora and Clara. They were deported from C=
zernowitz and all died in Bershad. My father who was then a prisoner at the G=
ulag camps in Siberia, got a letter after the war from his cousin Mordkhe Le=
vin, who has been at that Dead march as well and stayed alive. Also a Czerno=
witzer. He wrote that Dora and Clara were singing march songs, trying to che=
er up the people around.

, set in Cz during the war years. It is based on my father=E2=80=99s memoir=
s. It will be published this year, by Hachette.

> Over many months now, a small group of you (cc=E2=80=99ed here) has contri=
buted to that process generously - thank you. However, one piece of the puz=
zle still eludes me, and so I am now again reaching out to the entire Cz-L D=
iscussion Group.

> About the trains I by now know. They ran for three days shortly after the=
formation of the ghetto in October 1941, and then again in June and Septemb=
er 1942. This is well documented.
>=20
> What I want to know is: Between these two periods were there other evacuat=
ions, smaller perhaps, by means other than the trains?
>=20
> Were any Jews in Cz sent on the terrible Death Marches I have read about?
>=20
> If asking these questions upsets anyone - please, my most sincere apology.=
But it is vital that my work does not misrepresent the historical facts. T=
hat, I think, would be more upsetting.
