Hi Aline
As far as I know Mittelbau-Dora was a subcamp of Buchenwald not of Auschwitz. There is a website about Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora. https://www.buchenwald.de/en/69/ https://www.buchenwald.de/en/29/ At the end of the war many prisoners from Auschwitz were sent to other camps like Mauthausen, some with trains, but many on the so-called "death march". The Arolsen Archives have some records of Mauthausen online, but there is also a website about Mauthausen camp. https://www.mauthausen-memorial.org/en The deceased of the Mauthausen Concentration Camp https://raumdernamen.mauthausen-memorial.org/?L=1 Did you seearch with different spellings of the surname on the Arolsen Archives? Sometimes I found one and the same person with different spellings there. Regards Corinne Iten Switzerland |
