Overview
Stolpersteine
Roberth Fuldauer was born in Doetinchem on 2 August 1883, the son of Meijer Fuldauer (1844–1923) and Edel Fuldauer-Poel (1846–1908). He had one sister and four brothers, including Sally, who, like Robert, moved to Aalten.
Roberth married Rozetta van Gelder (Borne, 3 February 1892), daughter of David Salomon van Gelder (1839–1915) and Sara van Gelder-van Wije (1848–1919), on 23 July 1926. Roberth and Rozetta had three children: Lina Sara (Lien), Sara and Meijer David.
The Fuldauers were among the poorest Jewish families in Aalten. Roberth traded in whatever he could in order to support his wife and three children. The fact that they took someone into their home was certainly not because they had abundance to share. From 1934 to 1938 they cared for Salomon Denneboom, the newborn child of an unmarried mother, and later they also took in Cato Konijn.
Little is known about Cato. She was born in Haarlem on 11 April 1894, the daughter of Aron Konijn and Elisabeth Eva du Mosch. It is thought that Cato had an intellectual disability and was unable to live independently. This may explain why she lived with Robert and Rozetta Fuldauer’s family.
It has not been possible to establish where Cato went when the entire Fuldauer family was deported in October 1942 and the house was requisitioned a month later. She probably found accommodation with one of the other Jewish families. In any event, on 10 April 1943 she was among the last Jews ordered to leave Aalten. She was sent to Camp Vught and from there, via Westerbork, deported to Sobibor, where she was murdered immediately after arrival on 16 April 1943. Cato Konijn was 49 years old.
In 1941, Roberth Fuldauer was assigned to one of the Jewish labour camps. When these camps were emptied in the autumn of 1942, not only the interned men but also their families were ordered to Westerbork. Rozetta and her three children were therefore forced to leave their home on Eerste Broekdijk. Almost immediately after arriving in Westerbork, the entire family was deported to Auschwitz. All were murdered there on 12 October 1942.
A month later, Mayor Monnik asked Einsatzstab Rosenberg for permission to use the house on Eerste Broekdijk to accommodate a homeless family. Permission was promptly granted, but Rosenberg wanted to know where the household contents would be taken. The mayor had a convenient solution. A police officer was now living in the house of the hidden Izak David van Gelder at Lichtenvoordsestraatweg 8. There was still room to store the belongings there and, as he put it, “die Überwachung des Inventars genügend gesichert…”
Six Stolpersteine were laid in the pavement in front of this address in memory of the murdered residents.
