Albert (Abraham) MORE (second from the right, hands on hips), born on March 22, 1929, in Paris. He lived in St-Martin-de-Vésubie at villa Mes Désirs. He was deported on convoy 60 of October 7, 1943. About 1,000 Jews had been sent to live in St-Martin, protected under the Italian occupation. Beginning September 1943, just before the arrival of the Germans, most of the Jews followed the departing Italian troops across a difficult mountainous route, in a veritable Biblical exodus. Some were saved, but most were arrested by the SS on the Italian side, in Borgo San Dalmazzo, taken back to France via Nice, and deported through Drancy to Auschwitz.         FRENCH CHILDREN OF THE HOLOCAUST A memorial Serge Klarsfeld    Back Page 1043 Forward       Last modified: March 9, 2008 Technical/administrative contact: webmaster@holocaust-history.org
