Between March 25 and October 20, 1942, 57,628 Jewish people were deported from Slovakia to Nazi concentration camps.  This database contains the names of those individuals on two lists: the May 18 1942 transport from Vranov nad Toplou, consisting of 1,060 names; and the May 1942 Poprad transport, consisting of 140 names.

The names are from lists found in the District Archives in Vranov nad Toplou, Slovakia.  The original lists were made at the time of the transports in 1942.   The lists were also published in a book in Slovakia titled A Short History of the Jewish Population of Vranov nad Toplou by Igor Solanik.

The data fields in this database are:

• Name: The surname and given name of the individual
• Date of Birth
• City of Birth
• Deported From: City of transport, either "Vranov" or "Poprad".
• Date of Transport: Date of transport is May 18, 1942 from Vranov nad Toplou, or May 1942 from Poprad.
• Comments: Some of the people on this list were not actually on the transport when it left, and this is indicated in the comments field if applicable.  It is not known why there are persons that were on the list and not on the transport.
