Description:
Beginning in 1933, the German Government revoked German citizenship for tens of thousands of German Jews as well as persons seen as political opponents, e.g. communists. This affected not only persons resident in Germany, but also persons who had left Germany and were resident in other countries. It took similar action against persons resident in parts of Czechoslovakia which had been annexed. These public actions, totaling nearly 90,000 names of persons and firms, mixed, whose property had been seized by the Nazi-led German government were published in the Deutscher Reichsanzeiger, the official newspaper of the government. Most of these were listed under the category as having had their citizenship revoked, usually either due to being Jewish, political opponents of the Nazis, and/or having emigrated out of the Reich.
This list was typed in by hand over the course many years by Geophysicist and silent film historian Herbert Birett (1934-2015). The spreadsheet from his original work can be found at https://tinyurl.com/y7w4ue6j. The data was given, via a mutual archivist friend, to Roderick Miller at Tracing the Past in 2011, where it was formatted into its current state.
Unfortunately, the data, compiled on various types of computers in various stages of technological development, made formatting extremely difficult, as many of the category (column) definitions were no longer defined. However, most data in the original spreadsheet was kept in this collection though some do not have defined categories. The company and organization names and related data are not included in this collection as they are out of the scope of the USHMM’s Holocaust Survivors and Victims Database.
