Släktforskning sammanförde släktingar med sina förfäders tillgångar före andra världskriget
Det här är en upplyftande berättelse om hur MyHeritage startade ett projekt för att hitta levande släktingar till judar som fick sina tillgångar konfiskerade av nazisterna före och under andra världskriget.
”About €637 million (£530 million) had already been claimed by heirs, but €50 million remained; it was entitled the Late Applicants Fund. The organisation had released a list of properties and their last known owners, asking descendants to come forward and claim their rightful compensation. A deadline of December 2014 was imposed; any unclaimed money after that date would be forfeit and allocated to other causes.”
A December deadline looms for heirs to 45,000 Jewish properties seized by the Nazis to claim millions in compensation

Här är en artikel med liknande tema. Den handlar om stulna konstverk som får hjälp att hitta sina rättmätiga ägare.
”Since 1950, the French have tried, in fits and starts, to reconnect the art with its owners. In 1996, information about many of the lost works was posted online and replaced in 2004 by a much more detailed inventory. In 2008, France sponsored an exhibition in Israel of 53 of the orphaned works.
Critics, though, have long said that the French have largely waited for possible heirs to show up instead of aggressively tracking them. Last year, Culture Minister Aurélie Filippetti said the French would become more proactive and appointed a group to establish the origins of looted art. In January, she announced the planned return of three works on which people had made claims, including a 17th-century landscape by Joos de Momper.”
