- '"donated by Prof. Boris Morozov and Prof. Ziva Galili", built while compiling the data for their book Exiled to Palestine: The Emigration of Zionist Convicts from the Soviet Union, 1924-1934.
- It contains 1759 names of people of the many thousands of active Zionists in the Soviet Union who were allowed to emigrated during the period of the Fourth Aliyah to Eretz Israel. This database is built from the compilation of many sources and therefore the information available varies from person to person. For many of the people listed in the database there is information about the date of the arrest, their sentencing and their immigration. The original file was in a software no longer available. When it was transposed to Excel some of the longer sentences were lost.
- Jewish Lithuanians who came on aliyah to Palestine before the establishment of the State of Israel. 1931-1944

Suffice it to say that in this period offices existed in most European capitals and ports to Palestine such as Trieste. IGRA has received this file with gratitude from LitvakSIG. All requests for details, photographs on files, etc must be made directly from the LCVA Lithuanian Central State Archives in Vilnius.
