Rachel Troman (née Opoczynski, formerly Knopf), born in Kroszniewice, Poland, sought compensation for harm to liberty resulting from her incarceration in the Łódź Ghetto from February 1940 until its liquidation in August 1944, where she was forced to wear a yellow badge. Subsequently, she was deported to Auschwitz, where she was held in the Zigeunerlager (Gypsy camp), then to Bergen-Belsen, where she was in the Zeltlager (Tent Camp), and finally to the Elsnig labor camp until her liberation in April 1945. After the war, she lived in the Heidenheim Displaced Persons (DP) camp in Germany before immigrating to Israel in 1948 and later moved to Brooklyn, New York.
She also sought compensation for harm to life for her first husband, Chaim Leib Knopf, who was deported from the Łódź Ghetto to Auschwitz in August 1944 and is presumed to have been murdered.
Through the United Restitution Organization (URO) offices in Tel Aviv, Frankfurt/Main, and New York, she filed claims with the Landesamt für die Wiedergutmachung in Stuttgart and was awarded a settlement of DM 9,750 for 65 months of imprisonment.
