Documents, Samuel Tennenbaum
Subject
Złoczów, Poland 1940, 1942
Description
Samuel Tennenbaum's work certificate was issued by the Judenrat and stamped by the Gestapo in 1940.
Samuel and Lina received a permit to live outside of the ghetto, signed by the Kreishauptmann (district captain), Quizo. He refused to allow Selma and Edith to move with them. After he left the office, his secretary typed "und zwei Kinder" (and two children) on the permit. Her actions kept the family together and likely saved Selma and Edith from the typhus outbreak in the ghetto. The permit also kept them off the Gestapo lists for deportation.
