Hi Hedwig,
What a terrible time it was - to lose friends in such awful ways. It's
important that we don't forget.
By any chance, did you ever meet my great uncle Yacov REISCH, or my great
aunt, Suzi SCHACHTER, who later married Yacov? They lived for some time
in Putna, and emigrated to what was to become Israel in the 1930s. Yacov
was born in Sadagora and Suzi was from Radautz. They lived for many years
on Arlozoroff St. in Haifa, between Hadar and Carmel, not far from you.
Yacov died in 1984 and Suzi in 1998.
Did anyone on the list know Mendel HOLLINGER of Czernowitz? He married
Suzi REISCH in Cz. in the 1930s and this somehow made it easier for her to
emigrate to Palestine. It was strictly a marriage of convenience, only
for the purpose (I believe) of obtaining visas or passports. They
divorced formally just months after marriage.
Does anyone else know of such marriages arranged to make it easier to
emigrate?
I actually have Yacov's driver's license from Putna in my "treasure"
collection.
Best always,
Bruce
