Hello, My grandfather was a survivor of the holocaust. His name is Ralph Holly Green. I remember a young child asking him why he had a phone number on his arm he always said its no phone number child. My grandfather never talked about what happened to him or even of his back ground. I would like to find out more about his past and his long lost family if there is any out there! Thanks, God Bless. |

I was born in Bergen-Belsen January 19, 1946. My original birth certificate even lists Begen-Belsen as my birthplace although the new one issued by Germany now states Celle. Now that the Nazi archives are being released I hope to solve a couple of family mysteries. My mother was taken prisoner in Kharkov (USSR) in 1943 and transported to Germany. She met my father at the slave labor camp (an agricultural work camp near Luneburg) where she was eventually sent. He had been sent there from Poland in 1939. Turned over to Soviet forces in 1945 according to the terms of the Yalta agreement on forced repatriation she managed to escape from a holding camp in Stettin and with the help of French POW's returned to the Western sector and found my father. Bergen-Belsen was the main camp for the sub-camp so thery were sent to Bergen-Belsen as DPs and I was born there. We had always been told that her maiden name was Tarasenko but upon her death in 1994 a friend who had lived through the ordeal with her said that might not be true, that she had been married before her capture and given the circumstances didn't know if her husband was dead or alive. Therefore Tarasenko might have been her married name. I have been told that the Nazi archieves hold index cards with very detailed information on each individual taken prisoner by the Nazis. I'm hoping to find information on my mother, Lidia (Lydia) Tarasenko and my father Bronislaw Jaksender in the records. They both always refused to speak of the ordeal. Only once did my mother mention how people were executed at the rail station where they were loaded on cattle cars and so many died in the cars during transportation and the sheer terror during the selection process upon arrival at Bergen-Belsen. |

Hello, My name is Margaret, and I am 14 years old. I think that it is astonishing that we are remembering these people. I cried throughout the whole musem in Washington DC. It would be amaing and very intresting to me if anyone has real memories of the holocaust and would like to share their thoughts and experiences. At our school we are reading "The Diary of Anne Frank" and the holocaust is by-far my favorite subject to learn about. Thanks so much for reading. Please contact me if you have anything or would just like to talk. God bless everyone. Thanks so much.

I'd say I'm happy my grandfather escaped from the Holocaust with my greatgrand mother and greatgrandfather during WW2, but sadly the seven brothers of my grandfather were sent to a concentration camp and never heard of after. My grandfather never wants to talk about this, he's so quiet that it worries me. Im happy to have my first name in honor of my grandfather's mother, which meant a lot to him. Sometimes when I research about the Holocaust tears pour down my cheeks. I'm proud to say I'm jewish and will never be afraid of the Nazis. All the Jews killed during the Holocaust have my prayers everyday....Never Forget... |

Life was so harsh then. The blows and getting beaten never ended until there was hope in some of us that sprung life among the dead. It helped us to survive in those days. |
