Original (and some copy) correspondence between friends and relatives of the Cahn Hepner family, 1874-1952, many of whom perished in the Holocaust.

The material has been arranged alphabetically according to correspondent. Copy correspondence (mostly between family members) is described separately [1206/1/1-31]. In addition, there are miscellaneous writings and some newspaper cuttings [1206/2/1-2]. Many of the letters have been annotated (probably by the depositors) with information relating to the correspondents' identity and/or fate.
