In the Photo Album section there are individual lists that I have posted:

This website contains photocopies of the actual deportation lists used by the Nazis.

Not all of the lists are available. For example, My father's uncle and cousin, Moritz Samenfeld, and Arthur Samenfeld, and also my grandfather's cousin, Johanna (geb Samenfeld) Simon and her husband Harry Simon were all on the 31 March, 1942 transport from Gelsenkirchen to Sobibor. However, only 3 of the lists for that transport were found.

Deportation from Halle/Saale:

On March 20, 1942, the Gestapo Kassel informed the district administrators and police stations that "in the course of an ongoing evacuation campaign … in the near future, approx. 840 Jews will also be deported to the east from the Kassel administrative district" [HStA Marburg, 180 Fritzlar 2737] . The planned amalgamation with a partial transport from Halle was intended to achieve the number of 1,000 deportees specified by the RSHA. Another letter from May 22nd then stipulated that "according to the guidelines given … only 522 Jews from the Kassel administrative district could not be considered for the forthcoming campaign". It says: "These Jews will be deported from Kassel to the East on June 1st, 1942." In the same letter, those affected will be brought by rail from the various regions on May 30th. and 31.5. planned in detail [HStA Marburg, 180 Fritzlar 2737]
