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 Elisz Zandberg at entry 6367, born 1921 at Warszawa, who had come from Warszawa; the register's compiled age points to a birth about 1914, so the archive shows the entry as a lead, not as this person's record.
