Veisiejai
During World War I, most of the Jews of Veisiejai were expelled by the Russian army. Some families returned after the war. After the German invasion, all Jewish males remaining in Viesiejai were seized for forced labour and eventually transferred to the ghetto at Katkiskes where they were murdered on 3 November 1941.
