Re: Holocaust.cz temporarily offline #austria-czech

Thanks, Randy. For those who don't want to wait until the 25th, note
that most of the same data >from holocaust.cz's database of victims can also be found at http://archive.pamatnik-terezin.cz/en/history-collection-research/jmenne-vyhledavace-byvalych-veznu-en?lang=en It is mainly, or perhaps totally, under the 3rd collection listed on that page: "Victims of the Terezin Ghetto and Victims of the Transports >from the Czech Lands to the Ghettos in Lodz, Minsk and to the Labour Camp Ujazdow" which redirects to: http://archive.pamatnik-terezin.cz/vyhledavani/Aghetto/index.php There are differences between the search rules on the two sites, notably holocaust.cz returns all matches beginning with the search key (e.g. a search for "Kohn" also returns "Kohnova" and "Kohner"), while at pamatnik-terezin.cz you need to search for "Kohn*" to get the same results. A huge advantage of pamatnik-terezin.cz is that it gives info about survivors as well as victims. A huge disadvantage is that it does not give you the document images that are included with many records on holocaust.cz. Both sites are very useful (when available). The same data is also searchable at yadvashem.org. The advantage/disadvantage there is that it is mixed with data >from many other sources, mainly >from other countries. It is great that we have such a wealth of resources available online! Bob Lenk Fort Collins, CO USA
