Acquisition

The collection was donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2012 by Ettie Shapiro, the daughter of Ludwika and Moses Myers.

Scope and Content

The collection consists of an identification tag, documents, and photographs relating to the experiences of Mojzesz Majerczyk (later Moses Myers) before and during the Holocaust in Krakow, Poland, and when he was imprisoned at Plaszow forced-labor camp and Mauthausen, Melk, and Ebensee concentration camps; and of both Mojzesz and Ludwika Finder after the war in the Bindermichl displaced persons camp in Linz, Austria, where they met and married. Some of these materials may be combined into a single collection in the future.
