Refugee and Immigrant Aid Organizations
The organizations listed below helped Holocaust survivors immigrate to the United States. There are other archival
collections with information about survivors, but these have the largest number of records.
German-Jewish Children’s Aid
A consortium of American social service agencies established this organization in 1934 to receive and place Jewish
refugee children from Nazi Germany. Affiliated with the National Coordinating Committee, the National Refugee
Service, and USNA, in 1942 it became the European Jewish Children’s Aid. Most case files are restricted because
they contain personal information, and may only be viewed with the permission of the Chief Archivist. There is a
finding aid to this archival collection.
YIVO Record Group 249
The records series most relevant to genealogical research are:
Series 3. Case Folders, 1939-1952. Alphabetical by city of emigration and then by last name.
Series 4. Closed Cases, 1946-1951. Alphabetical by last name.
Series 5. Reception Reports. Chronological by date of ship arrival (no specific mention of case files).
Series 6. Transportation and Fund Raising, 1934-1944. Includes list of 587 children transported 1939-1941.
Series 7. Identity papers, 1941-1948. Chronological by date of ship arrival, then alphabetical by last name.
Series 8. “Children Abroad” case files, 1945-1949. Alphabetical by last name.
Series 10. Jewish Child Care Association files, 1947-1948. Alphabetical by last name.
United Service for New Americans (USNA)
USNA was created in 1946 through a merger of the National Refugee Service and a department of the National
Council of Jewish Women. USNA helped new immigrants, mostly Holocaust survivors, immigrate and integrate
into America. In 1954, USNA and the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Association (HIAS) merged into the United HIAS
Service. The collection has been microfilmed, and includes ten reels of case files. Most of these are restricted
because they contain personal information, and may only be viewed with the permission of the Chief Archivist.
YIVO Record Group 246
Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) and Related Organizations
Founded in New York City in 1881, HIAS is an international migration and refugee resettlement service, providing
translation assistance, financial and legal aid, transportation arrangements, and employment and advocacy services.
Over the years HIAS absorbed the functions and records of several related agencies, such as United Service for
New Americans (USNA).
YIVO Record Group 245 contains the largest portion of these records, divided into several sub-groups and series.
AJHS Collection I-96 also contains HIAS records. Many of the files have been microfilmed, including Holocaustera
records. As with other similar collections, most case files are restricted because they contain personal
information, and may only be viewed with the permission of the Chief Archivist.

Yizkor Books
Yizkor books, which memorialize Eastern European Jewish communities, were typically created by
landsmanshaftn (societies of immigrants from the same town) after the Holocaust. Usually written in Hebrew or
Yiddish, most Yizkor books were compiled by ordinary people who remembered life in their hometown, not by
professional writers, editors, or historians. Because the production of Yizkor Books was a grassroots phenomenon,
the books vary in their usefulness for family history research. Most, however, have at least some focus on families
and individuals, and contain many names and information about family relationships. Many also contain
necrologies, or lists of Holocaust victims, from one or more towns. Yizkor books convey the culture and feeling of
Jewish life in Eastern Europe before the Holocaust through personal narratives, photographs, maps, and drawings.
For additional historical background, see:
From a Ruined Garden: The Memorial Books of Polish Jewry, edited and translated by Jack Kugelmass and
Jonathan Boyarin (Indiana U. Press, 1998). A scholarly introduction to the genre and translations of selections from
over sixty memorial books.
Genealogy Institute DS 135 .P6 F77
The partner collections at the Center for Jewish History include hundreds of Yizkor books. They can also be found
at the New York Public Library, the Jewish Theological Seminary Library, the Yeshiva University Library, Yad
Vashem, and many other Jewish libraries. To locate specific Yizkor books, see:
