| Abstract | Imma Charlotte Lonny Richards, nee Doebler, was born in 1926, the oldest child in a family of six daughters and one son, on an estate in Gutsdorf, in the district of Dramburg, Pomerania (now in Poland). The family later moved to Stettin-Altdamm. Her narrative portrays life in German Pomerania, including details of conditions under National Socialism, during World War II and the Soviet advance and occupation, and in the German Democratic Republic. By 1955 Lonny and half her family had escaped to West Germany, and they worked to bring the remaining relatives from East Germany. In the summer of 1959 she met Roland Richards [See FH Richards] at the Resi, a restaurant and dance hall in Berlin. In 1960 she sailed on the Bremen to meet Roland in Chicago, and they were married in Wisconsin. |
