About the Family

The CZEISLER couple received visas from Aristides de Sousa Mendes in Bordeaux on June 18, 1940.

They crossed into Portugal, where they resided in Coimbra, arriving on June 24, 1940. They spent the rest of the war years in Portugal, where Joseph CZEISLER did some work for the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee. Immediately following the war, they went to Paris, and subsequently emigrated to Canada.
