Remarks

  1. ↑ Compare Incerta 1–3, 1 of which would best fit the overall situation: According to this, she would probably have been born in Austria in 1875 and would have been at home in Vienna during the First World War; after the “Anschluss”, because she was probably of Jewish descent, she would have been deported from Vienna to Kovno ( Kaunas ) in Lithuania in November 1941 and killed there, so she would have been a victim of the shoah. Yad Vashem also has this Eugenie Werner under entry in the Central Database of the Names of Holocaust Victims at the Yad Vashem Memorial . Whether both people are identical remains to be clarified.
