Notes for Lucie (Luchia) BRESLAUER
Lucie was too old to leave Berlin in 1938 and stayed. Benet Bano has a postcard from Lucy which was kept by his mother which Lucy probably arranged to be posted at a transit stop in July 1942 on her way to Auschwitz. She was most probably killed there, along with a number of other relatives immediately upon arrival since she would almost certainly have been judged too old to enter the work camp.247

The postcard that that was written from a transit camp was originally translated to read 'The flowers in the field are blooming and that gives us hope – but all is over'162 However the card received and now shown elsewhere on this website http://genealogy.metastudies.net/ZDocs/Stories/stories02_2.html# does not quite say that.

According to the Yad Vashem database:
Lucie Lasker nee Breslauer was born in 1864. During the war was in Riebnig, Germany. Lucie died in Terezin. This information is based on a list of Theresienstadt camp inmates found in the Terezinska Pametni Kniha/Theresienstaedter Gedenkbuch, Terezinska Iniciativa, vol. I-II Melantrich, Praha 1995, vol. III Academia Verlag, Prag 2000.

The detailed record shows that Lucie was transported on Transport IX/2 from Breslau to Terezin on 31/08/1942
Prisoner Nr. in Transport = 260

She is shown as having died, and probably was murdered within days of 31 August 1942, since she would have been murdered on arrival.
