Please accept my apologies, as I do not recall where I saw it but I know there is a website that lists all the Prisoners in that camp.
It lists their names by block and rooms.
The prison camp held a large number of prisoners well over 10000 and consisted of all aircrews. If I can find the site I will post the link here for you.
