"Aufbau"a German-language weekly published in New York and circulated
worldwide was an essential platform for the generation of refugees

from Hitler and the displaced people and concentration camp survivors

who arrived in the United States after the war. The publication served
to link thousands of readers looking for friends and loved ones in
every part of the world. In its pages Aufbau focused on concerns that
strongly impacted this community in the aftermath of World War II."

GerSIG volunteers have extracted birth, marriage, death and other data

from personal ads in the Aufbau. These data are searchable via

a link at the GerSIG website:

There is also a data file at JewishGen created by Peter Lande:
"More than 33,000 Holocaust survivors, published in the German-language
newspaper Aufbau, New York, 1944-1946." "Aufbau Survivors Lists" at:
