Note: springerlink (needs subscription): Ada's mother died when she was only 13 months old. Her aunt Emmy took care of her. She called her "muttie" her father remarried. Ada did not like her stepmother very much. She had an english governess and kept in touch with her even when living in England. She left all her jewelry in her safe keeping, but unfortunately the governess died and the jewelry was sold by her family. Ada originally became a social worker and then a doctor. She was asked to become head doctor in the Aachen, Germany area. She turned it down, because she did not want to have such a high position, being Jewish. Ada left Germany in 1939 and moved to England where she became a nurse. In 1940 she went to Ecuador, and in the early forties moved to New York, where she again took boards to be a doctor and eventually became a psychoanalyst. Every time she went to the catskills for the summer, she took loaves of unsalted bread as even in those days she knew that too much salt was not good for people. Karen Horney, the famous psychoanalyst was her mentor
Note: Emmy had a friend Mrs Spitz, who used to visit her fairly frequently at 578. Question: Is Mrs Spitz related in some way to either Robert Spitz and/or Babette Spitz, the mother of Hugo Moser?
Note: according to Kurt Moser, Leo was the cleverest of the Benedikt children. He sold the "Banking business-name?" to Credit Anstalt in Vienna
Notes: Rosa moved to Prague after Georg's death, few years before the Nazis overran Czechoslovakia. She managed to get her daughter Elisabeth out on the last plane to London. Not known, how and where she died or if Rosa had been taken to a concentration camp
Note: extract from: Rindskopf glass factories and the family mentioned at the top. "..Julius and Josef (Pep) Riethof of Teplice (Teplitz), Bohemia were second cousins and very good friends. They fought a "Fun duel" with each other in the Backyard of Haus Mendelsohn with proper sharp sabres, watched from every kitchen and loo window on 3 floors by at least 1 dozen spectators, fascinated by the noise of the clashing sabres and the shouts of the combattants and some of us onlookers.."
