"An extremely valuable research study undertaken to establish the
timetable and number of deported Jews from the General Government and
to which death camp they were sent was carried out by Tatiana
Berenstein and published in Poland in the Biuletyn Zydowskiego
Instytutn Historycznego (Bulletin of the Jewish Historical Institute),
Warsaw, No. 3/1952, No. 21/1957, No. 59/1966, No. 61/1967. Another
source is the "Luach Hashoa (Holocost Calendar) of Polish Jewry"
prepared by Rabbi Israel Schepansky and published by "Or Hamizrach,"
New York, 1974. A most important and more up to date source is the
Pinkas Hakebillot (Encyclopedia of Jewish Communities), Poland, Vol.
II, Eastern Galicia, and Vol. III, Western Galicia, published by Yad
Vashem, Jerusalem, in 1980 and 1984. The ... tables of the
deportations are based on all the aforementioned primary sources and
research studies."
