Looking for the parents of Hans Hammerstein, born 1899 Germany?
Hello,
I'm looking for any information about the family of Hans Hammerstein, born in January 1899 in Germany, (probably Berlin), jewish parents. Hans lived in Berlin, in the near of Kurfürstendamm. He fought in World War II (for Germany, and even recieved an iron cross.) Hans father died before Hitler came to power, but his mother was deported by the nazis. Hans himself fled from Germany to Sweden in the year of 1936 (I think), and later on he married my grandmother (Elin Hammerstein). I'm trying to find out what happened to his mother (and the rest of the family), but I don't even have the name of hers yet. I would be very grateful for any information!I think Hans Hammerstein had some relatives in New York, US.
