Historical Evidence?

"Almost the entire Jewish community was murdered by the Nazis." What's the evidence for this statement? Now don't give us that deportation=extermination equivocation again. Come up with something hard and solid. --154.69.33.81 (talk) 18:42, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Are you implying that the Jewish population was "deported" and not exterminated? - Darwinek (talk) 20:01, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've tried to find that information in the monographic book from 2010 and Janusz Spyra's Śladami cieszyńskich Żydów. What I've gathered is the Jews in Cieszyn lived mostly in Nowy Świat and Kiedronia Street. In 1938 in the united town lived around 2800 Jews. Some were in October 1939 deported to the east in Aktion Nisko and some small number managed to flee surreptitiously. On May 1940 (p409) there were altogether 1750 Jews in the town and its immediate surroundings. The last Jews were deported in early 1942, among them Alicja Reichert (wife of Samuel Reichert), who, quote died in Auschwitz, like most of the Teschen Jews (p414). After the war about 50 Jews returned to Polish Cieszyn and 50 to Czech Cieszyn. D_T_G (P L) 14:15, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
