Bertha Lobatz
Bertha Lobatz, née Schüler, born on 15 July 1851, deported on 19 July 1942 to Theresienstadt. Date of death there 30 Oct. 1942
Bertha Lobatz was born on 15 July 1851 in Ziebingen near Frankfurt/Oder as Bertha Schüler. Her husband, Gustav, already died in 1890, leaving behind his widow with seven children, two sons and five daughters: Alfred, born on 13 Nov. 1873; Meta, born on 4 May 1875; Frieda, born on 5 June 1877, married name Sternheim; Anna, born on 11 Nov. 1878, married name Mendel; Ida, born on 3 Aug. 1880, married name Mendel, Wetterhahn prior to divorce; Elise = Lieschen, born on 18 Nov. 1881, married name Tuch; Walter, born on 16 Mar. 1883.
The four daughters, listed above with their married names, played a major role in Bertha Lobatz’ life in Hamburg-Hamm. For them and their families, Bertha Lobatz represented the "nodal point,” as her great grandson Ulrich Bauche writes in his essay on the extended Lobatz-Tuch-Mendel-Sternheim family.
Until 1936, Bertha Lobatz managed her own household and then moved in with her son-in-law Max Mendel, whose wife Anna had died, to Hammer Landstrasse 59. Together with him and her daughter Ida, by then married to Max Mendel, she was forced to move to Breite Strasse 46 in Altona, a "Jews’ house” ("Judenhaus”), in 1941. From there, all of them were deported to the Theresienstadt Ghetto on 19 July 1942. Bertha Lobatz was 91 years old when she died of "enteritis” on 30 Oct. 1942 at 6:30 p.m.
