Door: Ella Levie

Jacob Israël was deported from Westerbork on 24 Jul 1942.

The Auschwitz museum has two records for men named Jacob Israel: one entry in the Block 28 Hospital Book, and another in the surgical ward book. The prisoner number for this Jacob Israel are 52702 (hospital book) and 52752 (surgical book).

It is likely that both entries belong to the same man and one has been transcribed incorrectly. Both prisoner numbers were assigned to men who arrived on the 24 Jul 1942 transport for Westerbork, meaning that these entries certainly pertain to this Jacob Israël.

Unfortunately, there does not appear to be a death date associated with the entries.
