Hans Ehrlich * 1892
Landwehr 63 (Hamburg-Mitte, Hamm)

ermordet
Hans Ehrlich, born on 7 Apr. 1892, deported on 8 Nov. 1941 to Minsk
Hans Ehrlich was born on 7 Apr. 1892 in Einbeck. His parents, Bernhard and Bertha Ehrlich, née Rosenthal, were Jewish.
Hans Ehrlich belonged to the group of persons who had only "insignificant assets” and were therefore not subjected to a "security order” ("Sicherungsanordnung”). Even so, he still had some money of his own in early 1941. For this reason and because he had a sympathetic landlord, the master tailor Lange, he was able to stay as a subtenant in the apartment he had been living in since 1934.
Until 1935, Hans Ehrlich earned his money as an independent agent for newspaper ads. In the years 1931 to 1935, his income was so low that he was unable to pay taxes to the Jewish Community. Surprisingly, this changed in 1936 (and lasted until 1937); that year, he found a job with the M. Lessmann Company, editors of the Israelitische Familienblatt ("Israelite family newspaper”).
In the summer of 1941, Hans Ehrlich moved to Brahmsallee 62. Only a few months afterward, he was deported on the first transport departing to Minsk on 8 Nov. 1941. After that, the traces of his life disappear.
His mother Bertha, born on 2 Feb. 1867 in Dransfeld, lived in Hannover and was deported from there to Theresienstadt on 23 July 1942 and two months later to Treblinka, were she was murdered. The father and husband probably died even earlier.
