Acquisition

Gina Biegeleisen (Regina Rosenmund) donated this collection to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum on August 7, 2006.

Scope and Content

Having been born in Poland, the family, consisting of Elie Kune Rosenmund, his wife Debora (Dora) Penner Rosenmund, their daughter Regina Rosenmund, and Debora's mother, Chaje Penner, had a difficult time obtaining the proper paperwork in order to immigrate to the United States.
