The register recorded visa holders. It did not reliably record the wives and children who travelled on somebody else’s visa, so these people have no entry of their own and cannot be searched for. Where the archive has recovered a name, it is here.
Where this comes from
The Kobe relatives list — refugees at Kobe in 1941 recorded with their relatives abroad. Seventy-six pages in numbered sheets (LIST No. 7, No. 16 and others), each line giving a name, age, birthplace, occupation and citizenship, and then… The Kobe community's list of refugees and their relatives abroad, List No. 3, page 4 (JDC Archives, AR 33/44 file 53, item 834), entry 94, read on the JDC's own page on 3 October 2026: Goldhamer Feliks, 44, born Sanok, Polish; relatives abroad Ernest Jawetz of 1631 Walnut Street, Berkeley, California, an aunt Matylda Doob of 460 Elin Avenue, Montreal, and an aunt Antonina Lilienfeld of 176 Forest Street, Winchester, Massachusetts; with him his wife Maria Krystyna (entry 95, born Lwow) and a daughter (entry 96). The register's Feszke Goldkammer, 42, a manufacturer, husband of No. 925 with a daughter, is the only Goldhamer household on the register, and the list is a Kobe record of the route.
