Holocaust: Jews themselves can only provide names for half of the six million

Source: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/174253

Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust memorial, is still missing names and details of as many as half of the Jews killed by the Nazis during the Holocaust. Yad Vashem officials said that only 3.6 million of the names of Jews killed in the Nazi genocide are recorded in the museum's database. The organization is making efforts now to gather the rest of the information.

Officials asked anyone with information about a Holocaust victim they suspected was not included in the database to contact the organization. Visitors to Yad Vashem's site, at http://www.yadvashem.org, can search the database as well
