Re: These Names Accuse, Published 1951

It seems amazing that a birth date is not recognized as such. It is in the format of year, date, month.

The question about <> is less clear. There is a place in Vidzeme, near Ri~ga, named <> aka <>. This is near a rail line with the station being named <>. This is in Garkalnes Pagasta~. Right next to Garkalnes Pagasts is Ropaz~u Pagasts. The main town is <>. There is no railway that runs through the town. The nearest station is several kilometers away from <>. Since I do not have a map of 1940 Latvia, I cannot tell you which <> is the correct location.
