Elisabeth Kaiser - Am Heiligen Kreuz 8

Elisabeth Kaiser was born in Celle on January 22, 1870. Little is known about her life in Celle, but little is known about her origins: her father was the postmaster Melchior Stern, her mother Laura a daughter of the highly respected Celle sanitary councillor Dr. Philipp Simon Dawosky. On her mother's side, she was also related to one of the oldest Jewish families in Celle, that of the court agent Gans. Elisabeth and her brother Bernhard, who was two years younger, were orphaned early on: Their parents died in 1875 and 1876 respectively.

Eisabeth Stern married to Berlin. She was in regular correspondence with her uncle, the senior postal secretary Iwan Dawosky, who lived in Celle, and she also visited her home town regularly. The last surviving letter from Iwan Dawosky to his niece dates from April 1941.

Elisabeth Kayser was deported to Theresienstadt on August 28, 1942, along with 99 other people. After less than six months in the camp, she died on February 15, 1943, a few days after her 73rd birthday.
