Cyna HIRSCHBERG and his wife, Rosa ARONSFRAU
Cyna was the son of Mozes Israel Isser HIRSCHBERG & Elka Ryvka SCHENKER.
He was born in Krakow on November 18, 1879.
Rosa was the daughter of Hirsch ARONSFRAU & Braindla WEINBERG.
She was born in Krakow on April 25, 1882.
They moved to Antwerp, probably around the turn of the century,
and married there on January 29, 1907.
Their first two children, Annie and Emanuel were born in Antwerp.
Because of the war, they moved temporarily to Holland,
where their third child, Leon, was born.
They returned to Belgium after the war.
With the onset of the second world war, they attempted
to emigrate to the United States.
They were killed when their boat (S.S. Mount Kitheron) was sunk by the Germans
off the coast of Newfoundland on Jan 25, 1942.
(It was a merchant ship waiting for the pilot
to bring the ship in; some of the crew took to life boats and survived.)
