I'm looking for my mother Marija Repnik,l ast known place was Novi Sad prison camp for Germans in 1945 to 1949. Repnik was her maiden name she may have had relation ship with a German man?
Mainly I'm looking for information about prison camps in Novi sad, Vojvodina around that time also.
specifically I'm looking for childrens homes in Kovacica.
Can anyone help or direct me to people who can. I have asked the serbian authorities in Novi Sad but unfortunatly many documents have gone missing so it has been rather difficult.
Sincerely,
Franciska Payne

Franciska,
You would in either case have to go to the archives there. Now the archives of Serbia are not on microfilm so most likely it will require you to do at location research. As for the prison camps, they were in German management and most likely the records have been destroyed or are located in Germany. If located in Germany then the chances of accessing them is virtually 0 because of the data protection that they have.
Now you can do research in Kovacica to first get all the details of the family. Now did you mother have a relationship with the man inside the camp? Was he working there? There is a list of people that were in camps inside Serbia but its very extensive so some more background info is welcome.
Regards,
