These figures include only two documented cases of individual deportations, but it
can be assumed that others took place. Excluding the second deportation, of which
the number of Jews remains unknown, the total figure of deportees computes to
423 Jews. It is most probable that the number of Jews on the second deportation
either matched or was greater than the first deportation, which consisted of 153
Jews. If approximately the same figure is used for calculating the number of Jews
on the second deportation, the total number of Jews whose domicile was
Magdeburg at the time of deportation computes to a figure of close to 580 Jews.
When this figure is added to the estimated number of 185 Jews remaining in
Magdeburg in July 1944, 265 the total figure reached is approximately 765 Jews.
