Bukachevtsy Natives who lived in Germany

Below you will find two lists of people born in Bukachevtsy who moved to Germany.  While we do not know the fates of all of them, we assume that they perished in the Holocaust

Liste der jüdischen Einwohner in Deutschland im Zeitraum von 1933 
bis 1945
------------------------
List of Jewish Residents in Germany from 1933 to 1945.

The following people, born in Bukachevtsy, are listed as residents of Germany from 1933 to 1945 on this list which was compiled by the Bundesarchiv (German Federal Archives). The list was presented to the United State Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC in February, 2009.

From a press release of the USHMM:

The list was compiled by the foundation “Remembrance, Responsibility, and Future” and the German Federal Archives. It contains information on the approximately 600,000 Jewish citizens in Germany when the Nazi Party came to power. It is the only such list available in North America and will be accessible through the Museum’s archives.

The list makes it possible for the first time to gain a nearly complete overview of the Jewish population in Germany before the Holocaust and is an important document for reconstructing Jewish history in Germany. The list was compiled in cooperation with the German Federal Archives and with the financial support of the German government
We do not know the certain fate of most of these Bukachevtsy natives.  But we have Yad Vashem Pages of Testimony for two.  Chuno Grosnas, son of Wolf Leib and Rosa, was married to Sheindel, lived in Lamberg, Westphalia, Germany (south of Hamburg) before the war and perished in Poland in 1942.  Nechemia Weissmann, son of Yehoshua and Leah, was married to Sheindel Heller, lived in Hamburg before the war and perished in Auschwitz.

Gedenkbuch
The Gedenkbuch is a memorial or yiskor book for the Jews of Germany, listing almost 150,000 people.  For each victim, the book cites the last known place of residence in Germany, the birth date, the death date (if known) and circumstances of death.  

Zbaszyn, now known as Bentschen,  was a German-Polish border town.  In 1938 Germany deported over 17,000 Polish Jews to Zbaszyn but the Poles refused to allow them entry.  They stayed there in deplorable conditions for many months till the Polish government allowed them to enter the country.  There is more information on Bentschen on a site hosted by Yad Vashem and one hosted by HEART (Holocaust Education & Archive Research Team).
