In addition to Lt Col Charlie Brown's suggestion of Ancestry.com, you might want to start with the National Archive's Concentration Camp records* and the information that is at the Holocaust Museum*.
You can also look at fold3.com (part of Ancestry.com) - the information should be the same as that in the National Archives or the Holocaust Museum, but it's an easier interface. It is a paid service (like Ancenstry.com), but you can do a 7-day free trial and access the info to see if it has what you're looking for.

Among these are original camp records; records produced by U.S. Government agencies, both military and civilian; and captured German records, including evidence files...

Some people have had good luck with the Mormon records out in Salt Lake City, Utah. They have an amazing database.
