Klinger Moses

Klinger Moses received transit visa no. 1414 at the Japanese consulate in Kaunas on 7 August 1940. The list enters this person twice: the same name is written again at No. 1568, which is how George Bluman's lists record it.

Where this comes from

• The Kobe relatives list — refugees at Kobe in 1941 recorded with their relatives abroad. Seventy-six pages in numbered sheets (LIST No. 7, No. 16 and others), each line giving a name, age, birthplace, occupation and citizenship, and then…
  Entry 139 of the Kobe community's list of refugees and their relatives abroad: aged 27, born at Kalisz, a clerk, Polish; relatives abroad: an uncle, Jacobs, Pleine Street 116, Capetown, South Africa; a cousin, J. Klinger MD, 1450 Mount Ephraim Avenue, Camden, New Jersey.
• The Shanghai Ledger — register of Polish citizens kept by the Consulate of Poland in Shanghai, 1934-1943 (original at the Archives of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ref. 43/2003; digitised by the Library of Congress; indexed as…
  Registered with the Polish Consulate in Shanghai (ledger entry 1289) — found on reading the ledger page itself — the ledger reads: Klinger Mojzesz, merchant, born 19 September 1914 Kalisz, single; 805/19 East Seward Road; passport issued by the Shanghai consulate 12 November 1941 (K-155). The register's other Klinger, Moszek (No.1568), is ledger entry 1408, a different man — so this Mojzesz is most likely No.1414 Moses, listed with Icek and Izrael Klinger. — owner reviewed 23 Aug 2026, held (held on the Kalisz-vs-Stawiszyn same-address caution)
• George Bluman, email to the archive, 28 August 2026 — the compiler of the Chiune Sugihara Lists reads the archive's cross-match of the Polish consulate's Shanghai register against his own files, and marks which of the register numbers he…
  George Bluman, who compiled the numbered Chiune Sugihara Lists, wrote to the archive on 28 August 2026 that his own files had already recorded this person as having reached Shanghai. The archive came to the same place separately, from the Polish consulate's register of citizens kept in Shanghai. The two records were made independently of each other, years apart, and they agree.
• "California, San Francisco, Passenger Lists, 1893-1953", FamilySearch — index entry for Moszek Klinger, 1948: born about 1914, Poland. Digitised from NARA microfilm publication M1410 (passenger lists of vessels arriving at San Francisco)…
  FamilySearch's index of the San Francisco passenger lists, read by the archive on 20 September 2026, has Moszek Klinger, born about 1914 in Poland, arriving at San Francisco in 1948. The register has no age for the line. A lead only: the register carries 2 lines of this name, and the index entry cannot be assigned to one of them without the manifest sheet.
