United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Collection, Gift of Sandy Schussel

Donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2022 by Sandy Schussel.

Scope and Content

Comprised primarily of correspondence between the Schulz, Gitter, and Plesser family members as well as correspondence and identity documentation, such as Polish passports and U.S. naturalization certificates, for the Schulz family, including Josef and Hinda (nee Gitter) Schulz and their son, Moritz (Moses) Schulz. The documents capture their immigration experience as they were deported to Poland in October 1938 and then returned to Hamburg, Germany. They fled Nazi Germany for Switzerland in 1939 where they resided before leaving for Uruguay in 1945 and then immigrating to New York in 1947.
