JGSGB-Announce Mailing List: Holocaust Era Asset Restitution Taskforce

[JGSGB Announcements List (jgsgb-announce]

We call to your attention the Holocaust Era Asset Restitution Taskforce (HEART). The purpose of Project HEART is to help individuals obtain restitution for property that was confiscated, looted, or forcibly stolen during the era of the Shoah. Details about the project can be found at www.heartwebsite.org. The website contains the information needed to determine if you or someone you know qualifies for participation and whether any confiscated, looted, or forcibly sold property might be eligible for potential restitution.

The website includes an archival research assistance page that might also provide useful genealogical information. The database, which can be searched, contains records of property ownership, including real estate and insurance policies. The page with a questionnaire has details about what kinds of property are covered and who is eligible to make a claim.
