The Museum of Family
History's "Walls of Remembrance" wishes to honor and preserve the
memory of those who died, who were tragically murdered, during the
Holocaust of World War II. Here we honor the Jews of Latvia, not
just the many who died in the large and small ghettos of Riga, but
throughout Latvia.
If you know of Jewish
family members who perished in Latvia, by whatever means during World
War II and have photographs of them, please send them to
wjc@museumoffamilyhistory.com
. To the best of your ability, include their names, the
approximate date of each photograph and where the photograph was
taken (or where the people in the photographs lived during the war.)
Also, please include your name and some biographical information
about those in the photograph(s), so it may be included along with
the photograph.
This part of the "Jews
of Latvia" exhibition is displayed as such:
As it might be in a museum in the material world, the photos have
been matted and framed and are organized according to how they
appear in the photograph, either within a family group or as an
individual. Within a page display of family group photos, you may
left-click with one's computer mouse and you will be taken to that
family's page with hopefully a greater description of the family
group, etc.
The alphabetized list
below will give you an idea of the family names of those displayed
in these photographs. Simply click on the underlined links to be
taken to the page of photographs. For these photographs, simply
left-click on the photos to learn more about those featured.
