Jack and Beatrice Glotzer papers
Jack Glotzer (1925-2005) was born Jacob (Kuba) Glotzer in Rohatyn Poland (now Ukraine) to butcher Mayer Glotzer and Toba Barban Glotzer. He had two younger brothers, Samuel (Miko) and Moshe Emanuel (Edmund). Mayer Glotzer immigrated to the United States in 1937. The Glotzers' home lay within the borders of the Rohatyn ghetto, established in late 1941. Toba and Edmund Glotzer perished when the ghetto was liquidated in June 1943. Jack and Samuel hid in the woods where Samuel perished shortly before liberation in 1944. Jack served in the Red Army until 1946, spent one year in the Schlachtensee displaced persons camp and two years in Bayreuth, and immigrated to Brooklyn in 1949. In 1951 he married Beatrice Walzer, born Bronia Walzer in Jarosław, Poland. She had survived the war in hiding in Modolycze, and lived at the Jäger Kaserne displaced persons camp until immigrating to the United States in 1949.
