• Arolsen Archives, Bad Arolsen — the online person index (collections 2.1.2.1, 3.1.1.2, 3.2.1.1, 3.2.1.4 and 6.3.1.1), reviewed against the register's ages and birthplaces, 17 October 2026
  The Arolsen Archives at Bad Arolsen hold, among the Archives' later tracing correspondence, a record indexed as Mones Monis Buchhalter Buchalter, born 13 November 1911. Only the year of birth agrees with what the archive holds; the index entry is a lead, not an identification.
