The Theresienstadt administration recorded Jeanette’s death

This ghetto death notice records Jeanette Reichenbach née Rosenbaum’s death on 25 October 1942, six weeks after deportation. Camp officials entered “Enteritis acuta — Darmkatarrh” as the cause. The notice fixes the administrative date and wording, but it is not an independent medical account of death under starvation, overcrowding and neglect.
