For the next several years, Weisberg and his family were subjected to the constant horrors of the camps and ghettos of Poland, with Weisberg himself being sent from Sedziszow to Skarzysko-Kamienna to Buchenwald and, finally, to Theresienstadt, where he was liberated by the Russian army in 1945. After the war, Weisberg and his surviving relatives slowly began to immigrate outward and Weisberg immigrated to Cleveland in 1951, working in various businesses as an electrician until his retirement. The collection consists of correspondence, a narrative, notes, photographs, a questionnaire, summaries, and transcripts created as part of Weisberg's oral history interview and the research conducted by the Western Reserve Historical Society on his family's experiences during World War II. http://catalog.wrhs.org/collections/view?docId=ead/MS5363.xml Fri, 01 Jan 2016 12:00:00 GMT
