Notes
- Correspondence from Josef DRONG and Anton DRAG, both prisoners in SACHSENHAUSEN, who were probably brothers even though their names are written differently and sometimes in more than one way. Their prisoner numbers are in close sequence which shows they probably arrived at the camp at the same time. Except where noted, the letters of both are addressed to Franz DRONG (or Drag) in Chocznia then in Wadowitz in Upper Silesia. They are addressed to “dear parents, sister and brother-in-law ».
