Hello Rivkah,

This afternoon Mike will be assembling some of the information he has.  I don't think the message you sent to him got through or he would have said.  I messaged you yesterday (via yahoo) and I'm not sure where you received it or not?  Hoping all is well?

Best wishes

Lesley

Hi!  I am related to these people and would be very interested to hear from you and share information!

Hi, I am also related to Lotte, Gertude Goldman was my Grandmother, she was married to Isadore Bergmann.  I am presently putting my family history together and my research tells me that Lotte only had 2 brothers, yet my Aunt in Sweden told me we are related, so I am not sure yet of the exact link.

Hello Peter,

Do you know anything at all about Lottie's time spent in Cyprus.  For example during late 1940's and early 1950's when she was co-running the Astoria Hotel in Nicosia.  Would any photographs still exist.  I am searching for information on behalf of a friend of mine ... although he is not related to her, his father was a friend of Lottie & Alex.  It would be wonderful if any photographs of that time exist? Best wishes.

I'm sorry I do not have anything.  My aunt in Sweden told me that we were related through the Goldmann's but there was something in the history where she had nothing to do with the family.  I do not know details but can assume it was something to do with Berlin, maybe the business and the whole family leaving.  All write up's say she only had 2 brothers so I am confused where the links are ( I am researching this) and I now have no other family to discover secrets and information.

If I discover anything I will let you know, it's all very interesting to me.

Lotti (Charlotte) had 2 brothers Walter and (Kurt) Ruwen Golan.  Their parents were Robert Goldmann and Hennie Leipziger. Hennie’s parents were Lippmann Leo Leipziger and Sophie, nee’ Eisack.  I am related through one of Hennie’s 5 siblings, Gertrude Leipziger(1890-1951).
Gertrude married Isidor Bergmann (1896-1941) who had 3 children, all girls, Hanna, Rosa and Irma.  All are now deceased unfortunately with Irma passing away 4 weeks ago.  My mother is Rosa who married Arthur Herz in London 1945 and who adopted myself and my brother Richard. 
Hanna Married Marcell Hirschfeld, lived, died and were buried in Chicago. They had no children.  All the family except my mother went from Berlin to Sweden to escape the Nazis.  Irma married Manfred Schwarz and had 3 children, Walter, Irene and Judith.  All of who are now grandparents.
I would love more details on our relatives, I am guessing you are relatives of Ludwig Munch and Susanne/Eva, Are you in Stutgart? please contact me if you can, Peter
