1 page, single-sided. Folded 3 times horizontally. 2 vertical holes punched on left side. Document dated January 4, 1949 from the Dutch Red Cross attesting that Mozes Jacob Hasfeld was deported from Westerbork to Sobibór on May 18, 1943. Since no news was heard from him since, the official conclusion is that he was gassed on or around May 21, 1943. Information was based on the testimonies of 3 individuals living in the Netherlands who had survived deportation to Sobibór. Narrative: Moses (Mozes) Jacob (Jakob) Hasfeld was the maternal uncle of the donor, Beatrice Barzilai (Karasin). He was born in Warsaw, Poland on June 7, 1907. He married Ida Wilk in The Hague on November 12, 1941.
