In the Aftermath: Searching for refugees after WWII - Janette Silverman (ancestry.com)
After World War II, refugees all over Europe lived in Displaced Persons Camps, sometimes for years. Some who wanted to leave Europe were permitted to relocate. We will discuss how to find information about refugees arriving in the United States and track them into records to find out what happened to them during the war. Some of the documentation will reveal their parents' names and birthplaces. As an example of what can be found, we’ll look at one specific family’s journey.
