Helene Weiss-Wertheimer is listed as the house's Owner in Lehmann's / Häuserverzeichnis (directory of Vienna houses, by street address) in 1935 and in 1941. Each time J. Weiss, GenDir is one of several residents at the address. He is listed there from at least 1926, and into 1942, when Ownership had passed to Helene's daughter and son-in-law (Julius Weiss had died in 1938). (Lehmann's Directories end with 1942.)
In Lehmann's / Häuserverzeichnis 1942 U. Derzura (Italien) is listed as Owner of Colloredogasse 38. J. Weiss, GenDir is still resident: no Helene. The Italian name (Helene's son-in-law) was Verzura. Many thanks to Peter Ebner.
