Marc Weill 
Auschwitz no. 173913F
Marc Weill was born on the 7th of October 1907 in the town Mourmelon le Grand in the Champagne region of the Marne department in France. It appears that he had a younger brother called Simon born in 1909. Weill, a builder, lived in Mourmelon le Grand and does not seem to have been a French citizen.
On the 19th of January 1944 Weill was arrested and deported from Chalons, the city nearest to Mourmelon le Grand, to the transit camp Drancy. His camp number was 13123.
On the 19th of February 1944 Weill was sent on transport no. 68 from Drancy to Auschwitz-Birkenau.
On the 16th of June 1944 he was transferred to Buna-Monowitz labor camp – Auschwitz III and about a month later, on the 17th of July, was transferred to Libiąż, a sub-camp of Auschwitz.
Simon Weill, a carpenter, was deported on an RSHA transport no. 73 from Drancy transit camp to Kovno in Lithuania or to Reval in Estonia. The transport contained 878 Jewish men. In 1945 there were 16 survivors from this transport.
