United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Micki Belstock
Micki Belstock donated this collection to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in December 2008.
Scope and Content
Consists of letters, postcards, documents, passports, and books related to the Holocaust experiences of the Wolf and Hausmann families, originally of Worms, Germany. Though the collection details many members of the family, especially notable is the correspondence from Mr. Daniel Hausmann and Mr. Julius Wolf, as well as information regarding their attempted immigration plans. Mr. Hausmann perished in 1943, in the Terezin ghetto, while Mr. Wolf was able to immigrate. Many of the documents have been translated into English. Mr. Hausmann's son, Louis, married Mr. Wolf's sister, Ella, after their immigrations to the United States.
