- Valkenburg - German Front Soldiers -

    NN

    He was one of the young men from Valkenburg who either had German citizenship or were stateless and therefore had to fight as conscripts in the German army.
    Born in Asche (Northeim, Lower Saxony), [1.1] and not in Atsch (Stolberg near Aachen). [1.2]
    Note: Version [1.1] of Jan Diederen’s article is more recent than [1.2], so we cite [1.1] where there are differences.

    Jan Diederen writes: [1.1]: [1.1]
    He lives in the Grotestraat with his wife Anna Pisters from Valkenburg, born on September 20, 1911, and their sons Martin (* 1934) and Jean (* 1938). He had a butcher’s shop in the building that now houses the Brasserie Royale next to the Old Town Hall (museum). It is only known that he has been missing since January 1, 1945 near Auschwitz in Poland. His name is listed in the memorial book of the Laurahütte-Siemianowice war cemetery. [2]
    The Volksbund writes:
    Place of death/missing Katowice / Oświęcim / Chorzów / Myslowice / Sosnowiec / Zawiercie
    According to the information we have, Jean Meyer has been missing since January 1, 1945.
