Hi all, following my message on the full search results list, I would like to ask to all of those who claim their relatives are not showing in the list - and they know they were murdered in the Shoah - to please prepare upload a testimonial page for the individual.

I would be happy to do that myself, or to help in any way.
Using all the years I have been searching for the families I descend from/relate to, specially regarding new families added to my tree, I realized I could search Yad Vashem for individuals from circa 1880 till WW2, and perhaps find matches of the individuals.
In many cases, turned up that I owned more details (sometimes even a picture) of the individual, whereas the testimonial page submitted by the relative, many times as back as in the 1950s, usually contains less details, such as missing parents, or missing spouse (in the current version of Yad Vashem's Testimonial Page, you can aslo add grandparents, if I am not wrong).

In a short, I ended up submitting some 30 testimonial pages, since 2006, for direct ancestors to very distant relatives I added to my tree on the way.

If anyone believes he/she posseses data to add, please let me know I and can take care of it, for those who have problems in doing so.

Thanks,
Avraham
