2 thoughts on “Lithuania

  1. Does anyone have any info or family, etc. from the Litvak town of Darbenai. The shtetl was destroyed along with all the people by the Nazi’s in 1941. My family left much earlier but I think some relatives remained until the end. I would like to know of any of the “Raz” family that either died or survived.
    Thanks;
    NG
