| Vivian: Re: POLACSEK fm Pohaba | Several years ago I attempted, without success, to contact Marie Richelholz who filed a Page of Testimony for her aunt Otilie Polacek Kohn fm Pohaba. Marie was living in Santa Monica, CA, at the time she filed POTs for Otilie [married to Hugo KOHN],{& for} her brother Rudolf [Polacek]. She also
filed a POT for her cousin Eugenie b. Wien 1908, daughter of Ferdinand and Malwine POLACEK. Eugenie perished after being deported from Wien to Sobibor 14 June 1942.
Another researcher familiar with Austrian resources did some checking and found some additional information.
Rudolf POLACEK lived from nr Slany, Rakonitzer Kreis in Bohemia − and he was married to Fanny SIEDL. Other POLACEK family members lived in Vienna − the younger generation [Eugenie] was born there. Hugo KOHN of Vienna may have survived and we may be able to follow him up. Alternatively if he died in Vienna there will be more leads.
You may be interested to learn that Ferdinand and Malvine POLACEK are buried in Vienna − Zentralfriedhof Gate 4 Group 16 Row 5 Grave 45
Ferdinand age 40 died 17.07.1928
Malvine age 60 died 12.02.1941
