On 27th January, 1942 the family was forcibly displaced from Gelsenkirchen to Riga. As per instructions of the SiPo (safety police) Kauen, Iwan Süsskind was then transported from Riga to Stutthof. His arrival there was registered on 19th July, 1944 (prisoner number 49681in the Stutthof concentration camp). From there he went on the transport to Dachau on 13th August, 1944, arrival in Dachau cc on 19th July, 1944. From there he was sent to the satellite camp Mühldorf/Inn. Iwan Süsskind was freed in May 1945. On 26th August, 1945 he was registered in the DP camp Bamberg. On 8th November, 1948 he emigrated on board of the „USS General Omar Bundy“ leaving from Bremerhaven heading for the US.
On 19th of July, 1944, Marianne and Charlotte Süsskind were also forcibly displaced from Riga to Stutthof as per instructions of the SiPo Kauen. Marianne was registered as prisoner number 48915, Charlotte got the number 48914 in Stutthof. Marianne died on 08th December 1944, Charlotte on 27th December, 1944 – both in the concentration camp of Stutthof. According entries are to be found in the prisoner registration, in the prisoner files and transport lists of the museum in Stutthof.
As per a list of the Jewish religious community dating back to 1946 that was compiled on the basis of sur- vivors, Marianne and Charlotte were allegedly seen in camp Precu (Reichsbahn) in Riga and were mur- dered in one of the „Aktionen“ (purges or selections) of SS doctor Krebsbach in summer 1944 in the forests around Riga. The written indications in the records of the Stutthof museum prove that this is not true. All donnations relating to the „Stolpersteine“ in memory of Iwan, Marianne and Charlotte Süsskind were taken by Werner R. Süsskind.
