Else Katz,<\/strong> commemorated here as Elsa Katzova, was born on 10 August 1893, the daughter of Julius Gl\u00fcck, a station-master on the Imperial Austrian railways and Jenny Bl\u00fch. The Gl\u00fcck family roots are in Lipnik in Moravia, The Bl\u00fch family includes distinguished rabbinical scholars. Both families can be traced to the late 17th<\/sup> century, a reminder of the heritage\u00a0 extinguished by the Holocaust.
\nElse married Hugo Katz, whose family had owned a shop in Trautenau since the late nineteenth century, on 28 June 1914. Surviving correspondence, mainly in the form of secret messages concealed beneath postage stamps on cards they sent each other, reveals how deeply they were in love.
\nTheir only child, Helene, Helena, Helly, Helen, was born on 22 June 1916.<\/p>\n

From Helly\u2019s account we know that Else was a devoted mother and a talented amateur musician and like Hugo, a music lover. Her recipe books indicate that she was also an accomplished cook.<\/p>\n

On 8 July 1934 Hugo Katz took his own life.<\/p>\n

In 1935 the widowed Else, aged 42, moved to Prague with her daughter. Her last address was Branick\u00e1 19, not far from here but she must have been a frequent visitor to her daughter and her husband, who had moved to their own flat here at Plaveck\u00e1 8. On 12 May 1942 she was deported to Terezin as prisoner Au 244. A few days later, on 17 May, she was included in Transport Ay from Terezin to Lublin. After that all trace is lost. She was murdered, it is assumed in Sobibor. She was 48. There is no known resting place for Else Katz. Today, at last, there is a modest stone to mark her short life.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
