Dorothy Kraus Memoir

The Feinbergs
We were good friends with the Feinberg family. Their father was also in America so we had a common interest. The family consisted of two girls, two boys and the bother.

The older daughter, Zlatke, was a charmer. She was very intelligent and a good person. She learned enough of the German language to be able to assist the commandant with some of the communal problems. For many of the Jews, she acted like a social worker or a counselor. It was through her recommendation that mother obtained a job in the dairy Fabrik. As she was able to read and write she was put in charge of keeping records of everything that was brought in. She got a young girl to stay with us but at times she would come home for lunch.

Zlatke Feinberg, with two of her young brothers, in a setting that I do not recognize.

One of the Feinberg boys whom I later met in America after the family was reunited.

Editor's Notes: The site of the outdoor photo of three Feinbergs is instantly recognizable despite the poor reproduction that has reached us: It is a spot in the meadow in front of the Potocki Estate where a low dam formed a small calm pool in the Pulva River, a favorite location for photos of young people. This is the only distinctive geographic location provided by Kraus.
