To those Jewish families who were expelled from Roth to other countries or deported and murdered during the Nazi era, the working group has dedicated stumbling blocks and a commemorative brochure with in-depth biographical information to 2010 and 2013.

In 2013, two families did not agree to the stones being laid in front of their properties. These nine stones were laid in front of the synagogue as a religious centre, with the actual address given, in the hope that they can be moved to their rightful place at a later date
