Casualties

Planes - World Trade Center - Pentagon
World Trade Center Expected fatalities at the World Trade Center. As of 9/7/02 the number of presumed dead was 2,811 (including the 147 plane casualties and ten hijackers).

The following list is based on the August 19, 2002 list released by the City of New York; seven people have since been found alive, including Albert John Vaughan[?] and George V. Sims[?]. The list thus has five names that are not casualties, and will be removed when they are known.

One name on that list, Jeffrey Montgomery[?], 23, was found later to be apocryphal, made up by the woman who claimed to be his sister.

As of 9/13/01 9:00 EDT
6291 casualties treated at area hospitals including rescue workers.

673 confirmed dead, as of 11/21/01.
