Go to the online archives of the Ghetto Fighter House at http://tinyurl.com/cdjxpxa . 2. In the advanced search page that opens, type the number of the document in the column "Catalogue No." 3. In the "Data Banks" frame on the right side, make sure to uncheck all but the "Collection Section," then click "Search." 4. Click on the icon. The document will open in pdf format that you should be able to read online and/or download and/or print. Beware that presence on these lists does not necessarily mean that any of these people have survived the war. It does, however, prove that they have survived until, respectively March and June 1944, that they had made it to hiding in Warsaw and that they were, within the limits of circumstances, taken care of by the Zegota for at least a while after the date by which these lists were drawn. In other words, it does provide a new last known date and place of whereabout.
