    Abstract: The memoir was written 1946 in Austria, shortly after her liberation. Minna recalls her deportation in February 1942. She was taken to Riga together with her parents and her husband. Her mother was killed upon their arrival. Her father and her husband were taken to Salaspils for forced labor, where the later perished. Minna, who was pregnant with her first child, was forced to undergo an abortion. She describes her experiences of Nazi sadism in the Ghetto of Riga, especially by the Ghetto commanders Krause and Roschmann. In 1943 Minna was taken for peat cutting labor to Olaine. In November 1943 Minna and her father were reunited at the concentration camp Kaiserwald near Riga. From there both were taken to Spilve - a labor camp at a German air base, which was under worse conditions than the first camp. They worked in the cold without appropriate shoes and in thin clothes. Due to the exhausting conditions Minna's father Wilhelm was getting weaker and eventually was deported to Auschwitz in April 1944. Minna was taken to Stutthof, which was overcrowded and in primitive conditions. They were taken to an exterior labor camp, where they had to build trenches for the German defense in the rain and cold. They suffered of constant hunger. In January 1945 the camp was dissolved and all sick and disabled were killed. They were marched under exhausting conditions in the snow and cold. For all missing women ten others were chosen randomly to be killed. After a week Minna was finally too exhausted to continue walking and stayed behind. The guard who was supposed to kill her fired the bullet over her head and left her for dead in the snow. She was rescued and brought to a house, where she was given food and a place to sleep. She was discovered by a German police officer, who was about to shoot her along with other Jewish fugitives. Minna was saved by her Viennese accent, which convinced him that she was a gentile woman.
    Abstract: She was taken to a mobile army hospital and treated for her frozen feet. In March 1945 Minna was liberated in Lauenburg, Prussia, where she was sent by German hospitals as an unidentified Jewish patient.
    Description / Table of Contents: Also included is Nini Ungar's questionnaire with the Austrian Heritage Collection, AHC 1536.

    Abstract: The story of Arthur and Elly Von Halle portraits their escape from the Nazis. It was first written down in German by Elly, and in 1991 translated by their daughter Ursula Ettlinger. This is the English translation. The first event describes November 19, 1938, when the family learned that Jews were being arrested by the Gestapo in Hamburg, Germany where they lived. The children left for England and the USA. Arthur fled to Oslo, Norway, in May of 1939, and Elly joined him in November of 1939. They were then unable to proceed to the USA, because the Germans had invaded Norway. On October 26, 1942, they were about to be arrested by the Gestapo. Arthur faked a heart attack, which saved some time. They managed to escape to neutral Sweden, with the help of an underground organization. The escape was demanding and Arthur got sick. They remained in Sweden until the end of the war. After the war they immigrated to the USA, but Arthur never recovered from his ordeal during the war and died in 1948.

    Abstract: Trude Neu Lindsey recalls her life in Nazi Germany. Trude Neu had been accepted at the Nuremberg Art Academy in 1930. Her training was interrupted and she was expelled from the school due to the Nazi takeover. Her father lost his factory and soon after contracted diabetes. He died in 1936. In 1938 the family was forced to leave their appartment in Petzoldstrasse in Nuremberg. Recollection of the street terror in the November pogrom in 1938. The family made arrangement to leave the country. Trude was accepted at the German-Jewish refugee commitee in Northern Ireland, where she found a position in a houshold. She left Germany in June 1939. The committee was administered by the Quakers, who organized meetings for the refugees. Trude tried fervently to get papers for her mother and grandmother to leave Germany. Only her mother's papers worked out. Rosa Neu was on the last train leaving Germany in September 1939. They lived at a tight budget but were happy to be reunited. They worked together as a cook and chambermaid in two households. In her sparetime Trude worked on several sketches of the beautiful landscape. Trude and her mother Rosa moved to Belfast and lived in a small apartment. Trude started producing her own collection of painted dolls in different costumes, which she sewed herself (Trude Neu Toy). The Womens' Institute showed interest in her work, and Trude was invited to give speaches. Trude took classes at the Belfast Art Academy in textile design and printing. Her mother worked as a dressmaker and made the acquaintance of the wife of the parliamentary secretary, Sir Harry Mulholland. Trude was offered a job as a textile designer at the York Street Flax Spinning Mills.
    Abstract: She designed also furniture and worked on her sketches. After the war she was transfered to the branch in Manchester. In 1946 Trude had her first exhibition at a gallery in Manchester. Her textile designs were exhibited as well. In 1948 Trude started her training as an occupational therapist and taught art to older pupils. She was sent to Germany under the auspices of the International Refugee Organization as a therapist. She worked in a sanatorium in Heilborn for three months. Trude Neu continued her work as a qualified occupational therapist back in England until her retirement in 1973.
