Anyone out there have a copy of Pinkas ha-kehilot: Encyclopaedia of Jewish Communities: Yugoslavia? I am researching a person who (according to Judy Petersen's name index) is apparently mentioned on page 126 of this book, Emanuel Sparger.
My research has suggested that Emanuel Sparger was most likely a cantor who lived at various times in Linz, Austria, Budapest, and Oradea, Romania (aka Nagyvárad). His son Oskar (who perished, along with his wife, in the Jasanovec concentration camp) was an engineer in the Zagreb area, so it would make sense if his father Emanuel also ended up in Zagreb. My local Holocaust library has a copy of the book, but it's closed during the pandemic, so I'd be interested in seeing this one page if anyone has a copy! Adam Turner |
