My grandfather came to the US from Lithuania around 1910-1915, leaving behind 1 sister and 5 brothers. He brought one of his brothers to this country before the war. One brother survived and came after the war. I explored the names database of the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum online and found the records of the deaths of his 3 other brothers. The document in Hebrew is the record documenting the death of my great uncle Shalom Baraker. The second attachment is a translation provided by the museum. The woman listed as the witness was my Dad's cousin who survived the war and immigrated to Haifa in the 1960's and whom I met during my second visit to Israel in 1985. Anyone can search through the Museum's digital data base at http://db.yadvashem.org/names/search.html?language=en to find records relating to people who were killed during the Holocaust.
