Martin Weiss
things to say...
Weiss was one of nine children born to orthodox Jewish parents in Polana, a rural village in the Carpathian Mountains. His father owned a farm and a meat business, and his mother attended to the children and the home. Everyone in the family helped take care of the horses and cows. After he went to the ghetto, Weiss was liberated at the Gunskirchen camp by U.S. troops in May 1945. He was 16 years old. Weiss returned to Czechoslovakia, where he found some surviving family members. In 1946 they immigrated to the United States.
