Tova Gittl Rother (née Kupferberg), born in Dobromil, Poland, and residing in Hadera, Israel, sought restitution for household items including expensive books, precious metal items, jewelry, and a diamond-cutting machine seized from her brother, Aron Kupferberg, in Antwerp, Belgium. She had moved to Antwerp in 1928 and emigrated to what was then Palestine on March 23, 1933. Aron Kupferberg, his wife Machle (née Kelner), and their children Hendrik, Chaja, Jacob, and Alexander were forced to wear the Yellow Badge, registered as Jews in the 'Judenregister', and were deported to Auschwitz from Mechelen camp, from where they did not return. Aron, his wife Machle, and their children Chaja and Hendrik were deported on transport XIX on January 15, 1943, while sons Jacob and Alexander were deported on transport VI on August 29, 1942. Restitution was also sought for the property of other perished relatives, including her sisters Jachet Meisels (née Kupferberg) and Reyla Metzger (née Kupferberg). Jachet, her husband Avraham Meisels-Bezem, and their daughters Mirjam Maria and Sara Sala were deported from Mechelen and did not return. Reyla Metzger, her husband Avraham Metzger, and their sons Elias Samuel and Nathan were also deported from Mechelen and did not return. After Gittl Tova Rother's death on March 5, 1962, her heirs, including her husband David Rother, her daughter Mirjam Friedrich, and Aron's niece Elsa Rother, continued the claim. They received a settlement of DM 33,600, paid out in installments between 1963 and 1964. The case was handled by the URO offices in Tel Aviv, Berlin, and Brussels, with support from the CENTRALE organization in Antwerp. Contains mention of books.
