Transport from Izbica Kujawska, Ghetto, Poland to Chelmno, Extermination Camp, Poland on 09/01/1942

In early January 1942, most likely on January 9, 15-16 Jewish men from the local ghetto of Izbica Kujawska (Mühlental), Landkreis Koło, some 30 Kilometers north of Koło town, were deported by truck to Chełmno. Some 1,000 Jews from Izbica and its basin were in the local ghetto of Izbica, set up in early 1940 by the German authorities, where they suffered from hunger, disease, and death.

On their way to the death camp, the transport stopped 10 kilometers south, at the ghetto of Bugaj and Nowiny Brdowskie (renamed in German "Jüdische Kolonie Bugitten und Neuhagen") where the deportees from Izbica were joined by another 15-16 Jewish men, with whom they continued the journey to Chełmno....
