- From the Central State Archives of the Republic of Uzbekistan in Tashkent (RG- P-864, Registration and Reference bureau of the Commissariat of Internal Affairs (NKVD) of the Uzbek SSR). The original card catalogue consists of more than 250,000 cards stored in 193 catalogue boxes with a total number of ca. 339,250 evacuees who were registered by the Soviet authorities in February 1942. In 2004-2006 a group of local researchers of the Central Asia Research Project led by Professor Saidjon Kurbanov selected and digitized 156, 000 registration cards of Jewish evacuees and refugees available within this collection. With the funding provided by United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, Professor Saidjn Kurbanov and his colleagues in Tashkent compiled database consisting of 156, 000 names of Jewish evacuees along with digital images of their registration cards. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Archives received the filmed collection via the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum International Archives Project in June 2007.
