Where this comes from

• JDC Archives, New York: the Munich emigration department's index cards, case 5627 — Isaak Wofsi (b. 14 June 1907, Dvinsk) and Regina Wofsi (b. 7 July 1913, Łódź), Landsberg DP camp, destination United States, 14–30 April 1946 (copies fro…
  The JDC Archives' index cards of the Joint's Munich emigration department: Regina Wofsi, born 7 July 1913 at Łódź, living at the Landsberg displaced-persons camp, on the same emigration case as Isaak Wofsi, opened 14 April 1946 with the United States as destination and closed on 30 April 1946. The register gives her age as 27 in July 1940, which fits a birth in 1913, and the couple on the card are the couple on two neighbouring lines of the register, a surname that occurs nowhere else on it. Found by David Rosen, October 2026.
• Rio de Janeiro immigration cards, 1900–1965 (Arquivo Nacion… — index entries for Regine Wofsi (also indexed as Regine Fabelinski) and Isaac Wofsi, arriving at Rio de Janeiro; dates masked on the copies sent by David Rosen, 16 October 2026
  A possible onward record, not yet confirmed: the index to the immigration cards of Rio de Janeiro held by the Arquivo Nacional in Brazil lists a Regine Wofsi, also indexed as Regine Fabelinski, which is Regina Wofsi's maiden name on her 1946 displaced-persons card, arriving at Rio de Janeiro, with an Isaac Wofsi on the same index. The copy sent to the archive masks the dates and the birth details, so nothing yet ties the card to this woman beyond the names. Found by David Rosen, October 2026, who has not yet found the ship.
• Arolsen Archives, Bad Arolsen, collection 3.1.1.1 (DP registration records), folder DP4568: the A.E.F. displaced-persons registration record of Regina Wofsi, G 11247559, registered 4 January 1946 at the St. Ottilien assembly centre, with…
  The Arolsen Archives, Bad Arolsen, hold her displaced-persons registration card: Regina Wofsi, Polish, born 13 July 1913 at Łódź, a bacteriologist, daughter of Isaak Fabelinski, registered on 4 January 1946 at the St. Ottilien assembly centre in Bavaria with Palestine as her desired destination. The card's remarks record her as a former prisoner of the Stutthof concentration camp, number 112356; a later index card has her at Landsberg. The Joint's Munich card gives her birthday as 7 July; the two records otherwise agree. Read in the Arolsen Archives' online collections, October 2026.
