Abstract:
Although containing no name lists or registers as such, this is a useful index of name lists published in the Jewish Agency's newspaper, Lakarov V'larahok. Published between June 1945 and August 1947, the 73 issues contain an estimated 300,000 names of survivors of the Holocaust. The index is divided into the following three sections: "List of Cities," "List of Survivors by National Origin / Present Location" and "Toplical LIstings." [sic, i.e. table of contents] The entries include the number of names in each list.
