Julia Graf
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The born Julia Gráf was murdered along with her husband Zsiga Rozenberg and their two daughters Naomi and Julia in Budapest, Hungary by the Hungarian collaborators with the German Nazis sometime during 1943 or 1944 during the Budapest Holocaust.
Her sister, Rozsa Gráf, Rozsa's husband, Ferenc Muller, and their two sons with names unknown, were also murdered in a similar manner.
Her sister, Margit Gráf (1892-1965), born in Szőny, Hungary (at that time the Austria-Hungary Dual Monarchy), was the wife of the Hungarian (Magyar) artist painter Ferenc Joachim who in 1938 painted this portrait of Julia GRÁF and saved it and passed it on to his daughter Piroska Joachim. Piroska Joachim's brother Attila Joachim died later in 1947 due to accumulated internal bodily injuries caused by repeated beatings during the Budapest Holocaust. He also would certainly have been aware and conscious of the murders of his mother's family members.
Their three brothers Moritz Gráf, Márton Gráf and Károly Gráf, together with their wives and children, have suffered unknown fates, but are believed to have been also murdered the same manner as those described above.
The parents of these six children were their father Márton Gráf and mother born Mária Stern who lived in their hometown of Szőny, Hungary (at that time the Austria-Hungary Dual Monarchy).
