In this instance, we have photographs, but we know little about the girl in the picture. We do not know her name or her birthday. We only know her number: 2731.
2731 was deported to Auschwitz in an RSHA (Main Reich Security Office) transport from Bratislava on March 28, 1942. There were 798 Jewish women in this group. They received numbers ranging from 1999 to 2796. We do not know the fate of female prisoner number 2731.
Perhaps half of the Jews deported out of Slovakia during and just after the uprising ended in October 1944 survived. Thousands of Jews remained in hiding in Slovakia. In all, German and Slovak authorities deported more than 70,000 Jews from Slovakia; the Germans murdered more than 60,000 of them.
The Germans and their collaborators killed approximately 263,000 Jews who had resided on the territory of the Czechoslovak Republic in 1938.
