rico:history "Walter Rauscher (July 9, 1919 – December 1974) was born in Ošelín, Czechoslovakia to Oskar and Clementine (Schnurmacher) Rauscher. The family owned a general store in town and lived in the quarters above it. Oskar died in June 1936, leaving the business to his wife. Walter’s uncle, Leo Schnurmacher, was the Honorary Consul of Czechoslovakia in Manila, Philippines. In 1938, Leo connected Walter, who had been studying in Pilsen, with Marcel Blum, the president of Levy & Blum Inc. The company offered Walter a position in Manila and financial assistance for relocating. On December 8, 1938, Walter secured a visa along with thirteen other Jewish refugees in the third wave of the Open Doors immigration initiative. He left for Manila from Marseille, France on February 3, 1939 aboard the Aramis SS ship. Later that year, Walter’s mother Clementine, sister Irma, her husband Leo Eisner, their daughter Hanna, and Leo’s brother, Artur Eisner, found refuge in Manila. Walter worked for Levy & Blum, Inc. and the family lived together in Leo Schnurmacher’s diplomatic residence. The family left the Philippines for the United States on the SS President Taft arriving in San Francisco in October 7, 1940. They were sponsored by the Americans, Henry and Camilla Beck, from Cicero, IL. Walter Rauscher settled in Chicago, married Elaine Kraus in 1947, and had two sons, Russell (1950-1995) and Eric (1953-)."@en ;
