coordinate the Warsaw Ghetto Death Card Project, a joint project of JRI-Poland, the Jewish Historical Institute, and the JGS of New York. You can find this list at http://www.jri-poland.org/jhi/cause_of_death.xls or from http://www.jri-poland.org/jhi/jri-jhi-warsaw-ghetto.htm by clicking on the link in the sixth paragraph. There is also a list at http://www2.jewishgen.org/databases/Holocaust/0093_Lodz-hospital-causes-of-death.html. The "Search this Website" facility on the JewishGen homepage enables researchers to also search the independent JRI-Poland website, which is hosted by JewishGen. Using this facility will find both of these lists. Mark Halpern ----- Original Message -----
Do any of us have a list of the names of illnesses (andtheir translations) listed as causes of death in the late 19thcentury records in Poland - specifically the Jagielnice, Czortkov areas? Some ofthe names are difficult to decipher, so I am hoping that by looking at alist, I will be able to match them. I know that there were several epidemics(i.e. typhus, and that word is legible on many records). |
