Original Note:
Most of these stories are about early 19th century pogroms against Jews in tsarist Russia, of which there were ~6 million at the time. Also, "holocaust" has been used to describe massacres since the 1670s. The Sept 16 1903 story is about a massacre of Christians, for example. https://www.etymonline.com/word/holocaust
