Document
The collection primarily documents the post-war experiences of Luba (née Luba Kerschenblat) and Harry (born Chaim Wajnrot) Weinroth, both of whom survived the Holocaust and met in Feldafing displaced persons camp. The bulk of the collection consists of photographs and a photograph album depicting their lives in Feldafing, including social activities with friends and relatives, and Jewish New Years cards. A small amount of wartime correspondence includes postcards sent from the Kerschenblat family in Warsaw, Poland in 1941, and a receipt postcard sent from Theresienstadt in 1944. Also included is Harry’s Feldafing identification card and two other identification documents.
