Gertrude Winter papers

Document

The Gertrude Winter papers include children’s work, lesson plans, student lists, photographs, and receipts documenting Winter’s work as a first- and second-grade teacher at a Jewish community elementary school in Vienna as well as the students she taught. Winter likely gathered the children’s work, lesson plans, and photographs and gave them to a neighbor for safekeeping after the school was forcibly closed in 1941 and before her deportation to Theresienstadt in 1942. Children’s work includes essays, poems, letters, drawings, math problems, and dictations in notebooks or on loose sheets of paper. Photographs depict Winter and her students. Receipts document supply and travel expenses and are stamped “Rechnungskontrolle d. Israel. Kultusgem. Wien.” Some of the children represented in the collection include Breuer, Ilse; Cucilower, Ruth; Dalfen, Lia; Dawid, Ritta; Deutsch, Sonja; Eckstein, Elisabeth; Engel, Gertrude; Engelberg, Herta; Engler, Sophie; Färber, Eva; Frankel, Mirjam; Friedmann, Edith; Geller, Hella; Gerstl, Hilda; Goldmann, Lisl; Grüner, Helle; Grunseid, Alfred; Haber, Gitta; Jungleib, Lisl; Kellmann, Suse; Konisgberg, Ruth; Kurzbauer, Sonja; Lange, Sophie; Länger, Olga; Löwenthal, Ruth; Mandelbaum, Gitta; Piltschik, Evi; Preminger, Edith; Ratz, Anitta; Ringel, Renee; Roth, Rita; Rübner, Jenny; Schagel, Anny; Schwager, Susi; Springer, Gerti; Steiner, Käthe; Steiner, Ruth; Sternlieb, Ruth; Streigold, Selma; Tauber, Renee; Tisk, Gerda; Traube, Else; Walter, Susanne; Weinsaft, Eva; and Weitzner, Ruth. Most of the children were deported from Vienna between 1941 and 1944. Two known survivors are Herta Griffel (later Baitch) and Ruth Weiner. Dorit Deutsch is also believed to have survived.
