Notes on the sources

According to statistik-des-holocaust.de, the Gestapo list names Sachsenhausen (11 people) and Ravensbrück (13) as the original destinations, but all 24 were deported to Theresienstadt with the last Berlin transport there (the 117th, Theresienstadt number I/123), whose Theresienstadt intake list therefore shows 42 people. CAUTION – overlap with the Theresienstadt dataset: the 42 recorded for I/123 on 27/28 March 1945 (Bundesarchiv chronology) include these 24; the Gleis 17 plate for 27.3.1945 reads 18 (i.e. without them). Included here only because it is a numbered "Osttransport". The id carries the suffix -2 because the Theresienstadt dataset uses 1945-03-27-theresienstadt for I/123. Arrival date is that of I/123 (Bundesarchiv). No Yad Vashem entry found. Their fate after arrival is not described in the sources consulted.
