Finding Vital 1796-1945 Data Regarding German and Hungarian
Ancestors of Banat(ska) Topola and Novo Selo, Plus an Exposé
About the Local 1945-1946 Internment Camp
for Germans of Serbia;
By
Jacob Steigerwald
- The publication should also be of particular interest to
descendants of Danube Swabians who have been wondering about actual
procedures that Tito?s partisans employed in wiping out the ethnic
group. In a variety of ways, my account also has relevance regarding
criminal actions against indigenous Germans elsewhere in the
country, from 1944 until 1948.
