Dr. Daniel Stone: Missing Children: The International Tracing Service’s Child Search Branch after World War II

At the end of World War II, the Allied occupation authorities discovered far more unaccompanied children than they expected in Germany. The newly-established International Tracing Service soon set up a Child Search Branch, both to assist these children in finding relatives and in helping those who were searching for missing children. This talk explains how they went about this process and, through a selection of case studies, tells the stories of some of the children involved.
