Search Poland Holocaust Records

Surname

• The Sounds Like option may produce results with surnames that are not sufficiently similar to the surname for which you are searching. You can use square brackets to force one or more letters to appear (example: [Ro]zenblat). But use this option only if you are completely sure of the letter(s) you put in brackets.

• You can enter two surnames separated by a comma (example: Rozenblat, Rozenblik) to see results for both surnames at the same time (the comma means "and"). This is especially useful when you know that your family used two fairly different versions of the same surname.

This database includes more than 1/4 million Holocaust records, covering hundreds of towns across Poland. About 50% of this material is the result of professional research in Poland, 40% is the result of wonderfully diligent volunteer typists, and 10% is from other sources. We thank those who have made it possible for CRARG to conduct professional research in Poland: (1) the Claims Conference, (2) the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, and (3) numerous individual donors.

CRARG's database of Holocaust records is one of the largest on the web. To search other Holocaust records, please visit Yad Vashem and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Like CRARG, these are unlimited free-access systems, available without registration.

CRARG also has a vast database of pre-Holocaust records for Czestochowa, Klobuck, Konskie, Krzepice, Mstow, Pilica, Plawno, Praszka, Przedborz, Przyrow, Radomsko, Radomsko, Szczekociny, Zarki, and many smaller towns nearby, covering the late 1700s to the first half of the 1900s.
