In Vilkaviskis in 1941 lived around 3,500 Jewish men, women and children. Of these 3400 where murdered during the months of July to November 1941. Only 950 have any memorial - 2,450 Jewish men, women and children died and have no known memorial - they died without a trace !

Hi--I am a Jewish American woman searching for her Litvak roots. The only time I heard much about my Mom's side of the family was when she and her sisters were talking about their sister-in-law who was a Galitzianer and they were Litvocks. I really have not much to go on but I continue my search.
