1943 Litzmannstadt Arbeitslager and Zdunksa-Wola

Dear Mailing List

Although my father was born in the Soviet Union (Belarus), his ancestors were East Prussian and considered their ancestry as German. My parents and their relatives were living in Tolochin (Talachyn) Belarus from 1935 until early 1943 when they were moved to the Litzmannstadt (Lodz) Arbeitslager. Some relatives were sent to live in Freihaus (Zdunska-Wola).

Does anyone know where I might find records about my family’s presence in Litzmannstadt or Freihaus. I have searched the online Arolsen archives which do have some documents for my family but none relate to these locations.

Kind regards
Monica
