Where this comes from
- List of Refugees, Vilna, 1940 — JDC Archives, New York, collection AR 33/44, file 00876. The contemporary register of Polish Jewish refugees in Lithuania, running to more than nine thousand numbered entries; the fullest independent check…
The 1940 Vilna refugee list has an Izrael Morgensztern at entry 3751, born 1929 at Warsaw, who had come from Warsaw. It is shown as a lead, not as this person: born 1929 against the register's age of 29, which puts the birth about 1911 — possibly a typing slip for 1909, not assumed.
