My Great-grandmother Betty Nussbaum (left) and one of the two spinster ladies that lived upstairs; they were non-Jews and seamstresses.
The Nussbaum family has been in Saxony and neighboring Provinces since the mid 1700’s.
My Mother Ella Nussbaum was born 1901 in Halle-an-der-Saale and died 1979 in Oakland, California. Her sister Hilde, my Aunt was born 1905 also in Halle-an-der- Saale and died 1989 in Florida.
In 1925 in Dresden, Ella, later know as Ellen married my Father, Herbert Samuel (b. 1894 in Stolp-in-Pommern) and had only one child …me.
My Aunt Hilde married Arthur Braun (b. 1900 in Gniewkowitz, d. 1950 in New Jersey) in 1928 in Dresden and they had only one son, Hanns, my cousin (b. 1930 in Dresden) now known as Hank and living in Florida with his wife Enid (American born) and their two daughters and five grandchildren.
My Grandfather, Leopold (Levi) Nussbaum, father of Ella and Hilde was born in 1869 in Niederaula near Hersfeld and died 1926 in Dresden. He married Selma Braun (1876 – 1942) in Niederaula. Leopold was the eldest of the four sons of Joel Nussbaum, my Great-grandfather and Betty Blumenthal. The four brothers later moved to Halle-an-der-Saale, where the picture was taken and where Leopold’s daughters, Ella and Hilde, were born. Leopold went into business (maybe in Halle and later in Dresden, where he started the Wach- und Schliess Gesellschaft) Leopold died falling off the roof of his house in Dresden where he was supervising some repair work. My Grandmother was born 1876 in Dortmund and died 1942 in Theresienstadt.

Hi Ralph,
My name is Daniel Nussbaum II. My father David Nussbaum Ii was born in Rabodshausen which is near Niederaula.
By pure accident, I met Helmut Nussbaum in Florida around the early 1980's. We could not establish a relationship. If you think there is one, please write me at "yekkey@aol.com."
Best regards,
Daniel
