Summary

[edit]
Description
Nederlands: Briefkaart geschreven door Heinrich "Moeselman" Steinbach op 22 mei 1945 aan de "Repatriëring" te Maastricht. Steinbach informeerde naar het lot van zijn vrouw en tien kinderen. De tekst op de briefkaart luidt: "Geachte Heeren, Ik verzoek zeer beleeft om mijn te willen berichten op mijn vrouw en 10 kinders aan gekomen zein of alleen kinders (zigeunerkinder) uit contrasiekamp Uaschwietsch Polen. Van 15 mei 1944 zein mijn kindeers en vrouw naar toe gebracht, geen joden. En ook Weiss moet ook mee komen. Heinrich Steinbach. Woonwagenkamp Eindhoven N.B." Een van de kinderen Steinbach, Settela, is bekend geworden als het iconische "meisje met de hoofddoek". Ze is te zien op een zeven seconden durend fragment uit de Westerborkfilm van de Joodse kampgevangene en cineast Werner Rudolf Breslauer. Breslauer filmde haar op 19 mei 1944 toen ze vanuit de wagon op weg naar Auschwitz door de deuropening een laatste blik op Kamp Westerbork wierp. Lange tijd werd aangenomen dat het een joods meisje betrof, maar in 1994 bleek dat het om het Sinti-meisje Settela Steinbach ging. Ze werd samen met haar moeder en broertjes en zusjes kort na aankomst in Auschwitz vergast. Heinrich Steinbach stierf in 1946 op 44-jarige leeftijd te Maastricht.
