Notes

Moritz and Amanda lived in Breslau at Sadowastrasse 73 in ca 1930. Three other Nothmanns lived at the same address, probably some of their children:
- Henriette, born 25/03/1905;
- Rudolf, born 19/06/1909;
- Lothar, born 02/03/1902.

Nothmann Family Collection, 1978 shows a Moritz Nothmann married to Amanda Heller and gives dates of birth for both of them, as well as for their children, that are identical to those shown in the Breslau synagogue community address list (ca 1930) entries for Moritz and Amanda geb. Adler and their children (apart from a 3-day discrepancy in the case of Lothar).

Moritz and Amanda are listed in the 1939 census of Breslau at Goethestrasse 9, along with a Ruth Nothmann born in Glogau on 04/11/1910 who I suspect is the the Ruth Buettel born in Glogau mentioned in Nothmann Family Collection, 1978 as the first wife of their youngest son Rudolf.

Nothmann Family Collection, 1978 does not show Moritz's parents; these are supplied by Walter's Welcome. It does, however, place his birth in Keltsch which is consistent with other children of Joel Julius Nothmann and Johanna geb. Freund.
