Paris Children (see Holocaust Children Studies)

Overview

After the Windermere Children (August 1945), the Southampton Children (Oct 45), and the Belgicka Children (Mar 46), a fourth group of over 100 child survivors (including 40 girls) arrived in England in June 1946. They are known as the Pais Children.

The overwhelming majority of the children who made up the fourth group were from the Carpathian Mountains which had been a remote corner of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and was home to a unique multi-ethnic society which, until the First World War, shared languages and mystical views and worked alongside each other harmoniously. After World War 1, the heart of the region became the most easterly part of Czechoslovakia.

When Carpathian Ruthenia was annexed by the Soviet Union from Czechoslovakia after a rigged referendum in July 1945, the vast majority of the Jews who lived in the area before the Holocaust, who were not only very religious, but many were Zionists, found themselves on a collision course with Stalinism.

There were around 15,000-20,000 Carpathian survivors and many of them decided that there was no future for them in the former homeland. The vast majority of the fourth group of the Boys fled westwards before the new Soviet borders were sealed in the autumn of 1945.

Of 106 children set off from Prague but only 103 arrived in the UK. Two ran away and two of the young people who made the journey to Paris discovered during the journey that they had surviving relatives. A brother who had accompanied the children in the hope he might make it to UK was then given a visa.
