This information is based on a List of murdered Jews from Germany found in Gedenkbuch - Opfer der Verfolgung der Juden unter der nationalsozialistischen Gewaltherrschaft in Deutschland 1933-1945, Bundesarchiv (German National Archives), Koblenz 1986. He was deported with Transport 28 from Drancy Camp, France to Auschwitz Birkenau, Extermination Camp, Poland on 04/09/1942. This information is based on a List of deportation from France found in Le Memorial de la deportation des juifs de france, Beate et Serge Klarsfeld, Paris 1978.

The German government changed names with "hs" into "ß" . So one might also find the family under "Straß" or "Straaß".
