The signed decisions, settlement copies, payment records, pension-adjustment decisions, and death-related closure correspondence in S-027 directly record each amount and disposition. The 1958 professional-loss settlement covered Auguste's own and derivative Ignatz claim and required waiver of further professional-loss compensation. S-028 preserves the corresponding authority calculation and waiver requirement from Ignatz's heirs file.
Auguste's 30 October 1939 declaration of intention lists Emil Sealfield as her child and gives the numeric date 6-7-1902. Her adjacent entry for Cäcilie uses 3-11-1900, matching Cäcilie's independently known 3 November birth; Emil's own 1942 draft card explicitly writes July 6, 1902. The declaration therefore uses European day-month order despite the U.S. form labels, while Ancestry's index reverses both children's dates. S-028's certified death-certificate copy names Ignatz Salfield and Augusta Einstein as Emil's parents, while Auguste's signed 1957 application reports two children.
S-027 includes the commercial-register extract, Limburg municipal and chamber replies, tax figures, and the compensation authority's review. Those contemporary records establish the firm, formal ownership, procuration, and 1934 deletion. Cecilia Wortsman's sworn 1958 statement identifies Auguste as the working manager who independently purchased stock in Berlin. The 1958 authority concluded that the Jewish proprietor's business would otherwise have participated in the post-1933 recovery and awarded Auguste compensation for lost professional advancement. S-028 preserves duplicate working copies of the authority's business history and settlement calculation.
