Biography:

Julius Rosenberg was a brother of Luis Rosenberg. He had moved in 1905 with his wife Paula to Siegen in the sand road 83 (now no. 167). He ran a cattle trade here.

The couple had three children: Alice Johanna Pese born Rosenberg (born 1905), married to Kurt Pese (1900-1951), most recently in Baltimore / USA alive. Rudolf Alexander Rosenberg (born 01.17.1906 in Siegen), married to Elfriede nee Haber (born 08/14/1918) is, emigrated to Santiago de Chile on 11/18/1939. The dates of death are unknown. Lotte (Charlotte) Steinberg née Rosenberg

(Born 04.22.1909 in Siegen), married to Berthold Steinberg (born 06/15/1903 in Chemnitz), and daughter Marion Steinberg (born 12/16/1930 in Chemnitz) emigrated on 07/31/1939 in Paris. The family was arrested in southern France, deported on 08.28.1942 and killed on 09.09.1942 in Auschwitz. Marion Steinberg is mentioned in the "train of Remembrance" created flyers in 2008 to commemorate the deportees minors from the Chemnitz area.

In the Siegerländer National newspaper published on 12.11.1936 an infamous article about Julius Rosenberg, titled "What exacted a Siegener Jew of his Aryan domestics" and the next day his son Rudolf was defamed because of Verkehrslappalie.

Pia Rosenberg has sent the two articles to me. They are very disturbing.

Siegerländer National  Paper 12.11.1936

What a Siegener Jew demanded of his Aryan house employee

Some pedestrians in Hagener Street experienced an unworthy sight yesterday morning.  

A skinny girl was using all her power trying to pull a broken shaft and for her much to heavy wagon loaded with malt for the precious cattle belonging to Julius Rosenberg.

The broken shaft weighed to much and was for the girl to heavy  but under extreme exertion  she managed to do it. Simply an unworthy image on this very busy street. Once it was usual to see this wagon in the street but with a cow fastened to the shaft. The shaft was now broken for some reason (!),the Jew and cattle dealer Rosenberg, Adolf Hitler Strasse use his house employee instead  of his cow to bring the malt from the brewery to his cattle. What does it matter? His house employee is a Goi!

The cattle Jew can be sure that this incident will never happen again.

Siegerländer National Paper 13.11.1936

On the 13th of November late at night the Rosenberg boy drove his car into a road ditch close to Flammersbach, just after the oncoming Omni Bus passed with Weisstaler Bergleute on their way to Grub. Two Flammersbach Bergleute offered the Jew to help him to get his car out of the ditch. They tried hard to help him with this unpleasant situation, but their efforts were unsuccessful. Only when more people came to help they succeeded pushing the car up to the field. The field was wet so the car got stuck in the mud. Then the Bergleute tried hard again. The car of Jew Rosenberg was back on the road and ready to go, one of the helpers was full of mud from top to bottom because of the wheel spin. Any decent man would at least say the word thank you. But the Rosenberg didn´t find that necessary and not before the Bergerman full of mud – after a while asked for 1 Mark to clean up his clothes, Rosenberg took his wallet and offered him – you get amazed – 75 Pfennige. Apparently he had only 2.75 Mark in his pocket. To help the man out of this embarrassing situation the Bergman generously said then don´t pay the money. The Jew Rosenberg then yelled : “Then you will not get any” and he left.

This conversation with Rosenberg was taken up again next day in the Rosenberg home in front of his father. And in this conversation the Jew was incredible rude to claim damages for a broken car window.

One sees: It is one and the same clan – father, the son and all the others from the same tripe, doesn´t matter if their names are Rosenberg, Marx or other names.

Before their deportation on July 27, 1942 to Theresienstadt, the spouses and Louis Rosenberg adopted in a long discussion of the then twenty-year neighbor Charlotte Wildtraut. She had kept the little granddaughter Marion in the early 1930s. As the situation of the Jewish population increasingly deteriorated, Paula Rosenberg advised the young neighbor, she no longer greet, otherwise they would get trouble. Charlotte Wild Traut also knew the businessman Albert Juncker, helped thus to survive the family married to the Jewess Jenny nee Kahn, acquired parts of the adjacent land of Julius Rosenberg had.

From Theresienstadt Paula and Julius Rosenberg were convicted in September 1942 in the Treblinka extermination camp and sent there to death.

After the verdict in the synagogue during the autumn of 1948 Alice Pese wrote the court in Siegen and presented complaint of arson against all leading Nazi officials in Siegen. The Attorney General then sent her the newspaper reports on the ruling.
