Two loose pages of the typescript of 1945 were found in the fonds titled the Roman Catholic Parish of St Nicolaus Głogów (Stadtpfarrei St. Nicolaus Glogau), Verstorbene der Restgemeinde Glogau 1945, reference number PGMkat 150, held in the Diocesan Archive in Zielona Góra. Despite the poor quality of the A4 paper on which the information is recorded, the witness of those days wrote, in chronological order, the first and last names of the people who died from 1 April to 19 November 1945 in Głogów after the Russians seized the town. Those people were the members of the Parish of St Nicolaus or, due to the turmoil of war, stayed in this area. They were buried in this town by the local priest who did not have time to prepare a proper death certificate. These yellowed pages of the typescript, which survived the ravages of war in the Parish of St Nicolaus in Głogów, are the only source of information about those 38 dead people. The discovery of the document confirms the wise saying: ‘the dead live as long as the living remember them.’ Perhaps it is worth thinking about it nowadays when the modern world is ashamed of names and wants to remain anonymous, and a man isolates himself from another man building a high wall and hiding behind various data protection regulations.
