Notes for Mor(itz) (Morris) Goldsmith |
Served in German army 1914-18. Partner with his brother Sally (Sidney) in paper goods manufacture in Bamberg, Germany. Nazis caused him to sell factory to a Swiss. Visited Palestine and USA before deciding to come to New York (arrived in New York December 14, 1936) where he developed a paper goods business. Later took his sons-in-law into the business.
Money came to USA smuggled into Belgium during the Nazi period, at great risk, by a Nazi border guard who took half. Sent to Max Goldschmidt from Belgium.
Moritz accumulated much of the family data on the Goldschmidt ancestors (but only back to Minna Wetzstein) while working as a sales representative of his German business. |
