Heinz Steinitz
Heinz Steinitz was born in Breslau, Germany (now Wroclaw, Poland) on April 26, 1909, to Walter Steinitz (1882-1963), a cardiologist and zoologist, and Marta Schindler Steinitz (1885-1926). He grew up in Breslau and was greatly inspired by his father to study science and to be an active Zionist. He studied medicine from 1927-1933 in the universities of Breslau, Freiburg and Berlin. Although he passed the Medical Board examination in 1933, and would have started work in a hospital in Berlin and in the Jewish hospital in Breslau, he was prohibited from practicing by the Nazi regime which came to power that same year. Together with his wife Ruth Aber Steinitz (1907-1995), a medical student as well, he left Germany in 1933 and immigrated to Palestine.
Wenzel Scholz
Scholz has been married twice. From the first marriage with Antonia Rupp, daughter of a printer, came two sons Eduard (d. 1844 at the age of 34), Anton (d. 1846, suicide) and two daughters Josephine Leeb and Karoline von Franck (married to Alfred Ritter von Franck), both of whom started a mediocre acting career. The marriage is not said to have been a happy one, as his wife was a squanderer. Six years later, after the death of his first wife in 1844, Scholz married Therese Miller for the second time at an advanced age. This second marriage remained childless. An illegitimate child Scholz' is verifiable.
