Hello All

Some of you may recall that I have been writing a novel, a work of fiction, set in Cz during the war years. It is based on my father’s memoirs. It will be published this year, by Hachette.

Over many months now, a small group of you (cc’ed here) has contributed to that process generously - thank you. However, one piece of the puzzle still eludes me, and so I am now again reaching out to the entire Cz-L Discussion Group.

It is to do with the so-called “evacuations” to Transnistria.

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 September 1942. This is well documented.

What I want to know is: Between these two periods were there other evacuations, smaller perhaps, by means other than the trains?

Were any Jews in Cz sent on the terrible Death Marches I have read about?

If asking these questions upsets anyone - please, my most sincere apology. But it is vital that my work does not misrepresent the historical facts. That, I think, would be more upsetting.

Thanks and best wishes to you all
Rick
