    Biography
    Hana Vosatka (Vosatkova) (1907-1978) was born Hana Goldstein in Ledeč, Czechoslovakia to Josef and Emma Goldstein. Her husband, Jan Vosatka, died in 1936, and Hana lived with her son Pavel (Paul Dixon), parents, brother Zdenek, and sister Arnostka in Prague. She was deported with her parents and siblings in December 1942 to Theresienstadt. Paul survived the war in the care of family friends. Josef, Emma, and Arnostka are believed to have perished at Auschwitz. Zdenek died of typhoid fever at Kaufhausen shortly after liberation. Hana survived and was reunited with her son after the war.
