BIELSKI GUERILLAS

http://tinyurl.com/c4v6oj8

The Bielski brothers, Tuvia, Asael, and Zus formed a partisan group that operated in the Naliboki Forest, in Belarus, after the German invasion (WWII). The group, also known as the Kalinin Squad, saved 1200+ Jews. The film, "Defiance" (2008), starring Daniel Craig and Lev Schreiber, is based on events involving the Bielski partisans.

Some of the names of the guerrillas were from a file ( partzasofbelski kalinina) uploaded by an unknown source to general-files.com. The list is in Russian. It includes many birth years, and places for the individuals. A few of the many  surnames (about 1200) are:
