    Abstract: The memoir starts with the Wolf family's arrival in New York City in February 1939, including a brief description of the ship Queen Mary. Then the memoir jumps back in time, to the year 1933:.fFamily life, their live-in maid who had to leave the family in 1937. The two older siblings Paul and Ellen were exposed to anti-Semitism in their schools, and were sent by their parents to an international boarding school and a Jewish school respectively. Marlies Plotnik then talks about her grandparents and the family's leather business, Adler & Oppenheimer Lederfabrik AG. She recollects the events of Kristallnacht in Darmstadt. She saw that both the conservative and orthodox synagogues were ablaze. It follows a detailed genealogical description of her family background. Then "Life in Pre-Hitler Darmstadt" is covered. Marlies Plotnik writes about the daily routine of her middle class family. Her parents attended the cultural events of Darmstadt, theater, the ball season, etc. The second part of the memoir is dedicated to the departure from Germany, the emigration via England, and the immigration into the USA. The family settled in Washington Heights, as did so many other Jewish families from Germany. Attached are family pedigrees, family photographs, passports (copies), and documents.

    Abstract: The memoirs were written 1998 in London. The author describes the Rothenberg family's history going back to the late 18th century. Helmut Rothenberg's great-grandfather Emil Rothenberg was born 1853 in Goettingen. His mother died three years later, and Emil was brought up with relatives. In 1879 Emil Rothenberg married Fanny Karpf, whose ancestors came from southern Germany. Emil and Fanny lived in Nuernberg and had seven children. Their oldest son Isaak, the author's father, was born in 1880. He became a senior manager at the brass works of Aron Hirsch & Son in Halberstadt. In 1914 Isaak Rothenberg married Dora Moses, who came from a large orthodox family. Isaak and Dora Rothenberg had two sons; Helmut, born in 1915, was the oldest. His brother Karl-Heinz was born in 1917. In 1920 the family moved to Frankfurt, where Isaak Rothenberg joined a manufacturing business. Memories of the Rhineland occupation by French troops and the time of inflation after World War I. Helmut attended "Musterschule", a school based on Johann Pestalozzi's principles of education. School trip to London in 1930. Private piano lessons and growing interest in music. Rising Nazism. Helmut Rothenberg graduated in 1933, shortly after Hitler had become chancellor of Germany. A few months later he left Frankfurt for England. He stayed with friends of his father in Cheshunt, where he started to work as a chartered accountant. Helmut's brother Heinz (Henry) joined him in 1934, as the condition in his school in Frankfurt had become intolerable. Summer vocations with their parents in Suffolk. In 1939 Isaak and Dora Rothenberg were able to emigrate to England - shortly before the outbreak of war with Germany. Henry joined the Pioneer Corps in 1939, while Helmut worked for the War Office. The family moved to London in 1940. Recollection of air raids and situation as enemy aliens.
    Abstract: Helmut Rothenberg started his own business in 1945, and shortly thereafter he married his fiancée Annema Hannes. In 1946 their son John Daniel was born. Description of his professional accomplishments. Memories of colleagues and friends. Their second son Robert Michael was born in 1950.
