    Abstract: The memoir was written in German one and a half years after liberation. It has the form of a witness report, written in a clear and objective tone, but nevertheless harrowing. The content: Their is no word on their life in Amsterdam before the deportation. The memoir starts with their arrest in Amsterdam, Westerbork - the place they were deported to at first - is mentioned, but not described. Bergen-Belsen gets more attention, Fritz Joseph describes daily work routine, and living conditions in the camp. Theresienstadt comes next, and the author points out the good features as opposed to his later experiences in Auschwitz. He describes the efforts to make Theresienstadt look prettier, before the International Red Cross delegation arrived. Soon thereafter, the infamous movie documentary about Thersienstadt was shot. Firtz Joseph describes many details of the false set-up. Then he was separated from his wife and deported to Auschwitz. He describes the selection process, and many other components of the horror. He was then transferred to Buchenwald, and had to work as a forced laborer at the HASAG works (former Hugo Schneider AG) at Meuselwitz near Leipzig. In 1945, the camp was evacuated and Fritz Joseph could flee. The war ended and he got treatment for his infected leg. After a few days he could return to Amsterdam where he met his wife - she had survived as well. A 10 page long It can be found in the file as well.

    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.

    Abstract: The memoir (original German manuscript and a typed English translation) documents the early moments of the Zionist movement in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Before a census was held, Zionists tried to convince Jewish residents to note down "Jewish" as their language. Zionists hoped that this would bring them recognition as a nation. The author explains how Zionist meetings were prohibited by the ruling class and what attempts were undertaken to legalize them by Zionist activists. One of those illegal meetings took place in Dukla, where the author held the introductory speech. A city official tried to close the meeting, but was sent away. Some time thereafter, a law suit was filed against the author of this memoir. He then describes the setting of the court hearing and his pleas. The judge dismissed the case which was perceived as a huge victory for the Zionist cause.
    Abstract: The memoir is part of the "Rzeszow Community Memorial Book" (Poland), edited by M. Yari-Wold, published in Tel Aviv, by Former residents of Rzeszow in Israel and the USA, 1967. A translation was published online by http://www.jewishgen.org.

    Abstract: Growing up in a Yiddish and Russian environment in Kovno (Kaunas, Lithuania) on the banks of the Njemen River. His father was a tailor. A big part of the memoir is devoted to Matthias’ opposition to the ‘Cheder’, the traditional elementary school where Jewish boys were educated by rabbis. He nevertheless stayed in his pre-ordained track, continuing his Cheder studies at more advanced Talmud schools in the town of Rogol (? Ariogala, Lithuania) and in the city of Kjelmü (Kielmy, Lithuania). After working in a friend’s lumber business, floating the tree trunks down the river, an accident rendered him almost blind, and he spent 6 months in the eye hospital in Königsberg. He became a private teacher for well-to-do Jewish families, and he taught for some time in his own Cheder in the village of Maklow. When he worked as a private tutor on an estate in the Lithuanian woods, he became permanently blind.
    Note: Matthias Salzberg is probably identical with Matityahu Salzberg, author of the Hebrew language novel ‘Shurat ha-kavod’ about Jews in Lithuania. , German

    Abstract: “Babys Tagebuch” (Baby's Diary) started as a commercially available book about baby care [Moro-Drasch, Irene : Babys Tagebuch , Merkblaetter und die Grundzuege der Saeuglingspflege ; Graz 1925]. The book had empty pages to keep schedule of the baby’s development. Gerda Mayer's parents, Arnold and Erna Stein, made good use of it, and did not stop writing entries (with Arnold contributing to 50 pages in his rounded handwriting, and Erna contributing to 27 pages in her more formal hand). When their daughter grew older, the baby diary developed into a regular diary, in which they were addressing their daughter Gerda. They talk about their time together, their activities, but also the political events that affected the family, like anti-Semitism. The Steins kept a diary of their daughter Gerda from her birth in 1927 until her departure to England in 1939. There are also little drawings and scribbles by young Gerti.
    Note: The transcript of “Babys Tagebuch” is also microfilmed on MM 132.

    Abstract: Like her husband Julius Goldstein, Margarete Goldstein also kept appointment books and diaries, but was less consistent in her entries than Julius. Of particular interest among these are Margarete's extensive travel diaries, especially of the Goldsteins' trip to the United States in 1923-1924 when she lectured on social work and social conditions in Germany. Other trips taken include Milan in Italy, Bad Gastein in Austria, Bremerhafen, Spain, Paris, and several areas in Switzerland. Often hotel cards, postcards, or tickets are pasted to the pages of her travel diaries.

    Keywords: Jewish lawyers ; Thuringia (Germany) Personal narratives. Social life and customs ; Memoirs ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Lawyers ; Genealogy
    Abstract: The three volumes of Jacob Simon’s Memoirs (Lebens Erinnerungen) were written in the postwar period 1919-1933. In Volume I he writes about his family’s 19th century history and his own life experiences in pre-Holocaust Germany. Based on his own genealogical research he displays a family tree which traces the family’s roots back to Vitus von Worms in Frankfurt in 1485. Starting from the 18th century he shows connections to Hoffactor Simon Levi Simon (1749-1826), the progenitor of the Simon family in Hildburghausen. Volume II deals entirely with his law practice. More than 100 cases are described in anecdotal form; these cases are grouped in a legal outline format and range from sexual offenses to Communist riots. Much discussion deals with the difficulty in making the transition from medieval property law to the civil code (BGB) in a still largely agrarian society. In Volume III he discusses philosophy, Jewish history, politics, and Judaism. In the supplement to this volume are included sections on Yiddish expressions and 19th century Hildburghausen recollections.
    Abstract: In addition the collection contains a complete English translation of the original three German volumes. Five recently discovered notebooks hand-written in old German script that appear to be the original draft of Volume I are also displayed.
    Abstract: Memoirs and family history dating back to the 15th century. The memoirs deal primarily with the author’s law firm from the end of the 19th to the early 20th century, as well as his views of religion and Judaism. Five handwritten notebooks in old German script were the basis for the author’s memoirs; they are also available in an English translation.

One of her constant concerns is the absence of co-educational schools. She is well read and reviews many of the books she read. Some of the diary books also contain compositions, such as a composition comparing the biblical Jacob and the Jacob in Beer Hofmann (diary 3), essay on Joan of Arc, Max Nordau, Zweig's Nietzsche biography, Goethe's Urgoetz (diary 16). 1929 she travels to London (diary 6) and to Russia (diary 7). Other activities: member of the Jewish Youth Club, Association Internationale des Etudiants de Boulogne, playing tennis (Blau-Weiss), studying violin, rowing, working on her special subject "History of socialism", member of the Zugscharen, a leftist organisation.
