- 1 page, double-sided. Folded once horizontally and once vertically. Document is a letter addressed to Gusztáv Weinberger from András Rosenfeld. In it, András gives news of his own family (wife and baby), as well as of his siblings, some of whom survived the war, others who did not. He mentions that he has not seen Gusztáv for ten years. He asks Gusztáv to send news of himself, and he encloses a small photograph of his family. Narrative: Donor is Elaine Kalman Naves, daughter of Gusztáv and Anikó Weinberger. Gusztáv returned from the front to learn that 34 members of his extended family, including his wife and small daughter Évike, had been deported to Auschwitz. Only one cousin returned. He remarried Anikó Schwartz and they had two daughters, Elaine and Judith. András Rosenfeld was a very good friend of Gusztáv. They did labour service together in the latter part of the war. He was originally from the same hometown as Anikó Schwartz : Beregszász, a town in Czechoslovakia with a large Hungarian minority. András returned to his hometown after the war and was thus separated from his connection with Gusztáv for many years. They corresponded and met in Budapest after the Weinberger family had immigrated to Canada, on a trip back to Hungary.

- 1 page, folded once vertically. Document is a watercolour painting depicting a landscape. There is a tree in left foreground with branches in blue ink. There is writing in pencil in a child's handwriting at top of painting and on verso - possibly proper names, as well as numbers. Painting is likely by Ferenc Weinberger, as his name is printed in upper left corner of painting. It was probably Évike or her cousin Marika who scribbled over it in pencil. Narrative: Ferenc (Feri) Weinberger was the younger brother of Gusztáv Weinberger, the donor's father. In 1943, he was sent to the Bor copper mines, in Serbia, as a Jewish forced laborer. In the fall of 1944, the mines were evacuated in the face of the Red Army and Yugoslav partisans; Feri and thousands of others were deported to concentration camps in Germany. He was imprisoned in Flossenberg on November 9, 1944, and was transferred to Commando Hersbruck on December 3 of that same year. He died on December 26, cause of death unknown. Gusztáv returned from forced labor service at the end of the war to learn that 34 members of his extended family, including his wife Mancika and small daughter Évike, had been deported to Auschwitz. Only one cousin returned. He remarried Anikó Schwartz and they had two daughters, Elaine and Judith.
