Notes

Barmaid and shopkeeper in Hindenburg.

Adolph's birth certificate describes Lina as unmarried; the birth was reported by her mother. The death announcement for Adoplh names his mother as "Lina Hecht geb. Nothmann". His death certificate is worded in a similar manner. Adolph's death announcement also names Gustav as his grandfather.

According to the Zabrze museum website her children Adolph and Max bore the surname Nothmann; I have rendered them the same way in the absence of any other information. This would be consistent with Lina being unmarried at the time of their births, which makes her a likely candidate for the mother of Salo, whose mother is named as "the unmarried Lina Nothmann".

In the 1939 census of Hindenburg Lina is listed as "Lina Hecht geb. Nothmann" at Reitzensteinplatz 3, along with her sons Georg Hecht and Kurt Nothmann. Both Georg and Kurt were born after Lina's marriage to Isaac Hecht, so it is unclear why Kurt was using his mother's maiden name; it is possible that Isaac is not his father.
