Paul Pinkus Eckdish (1909 - 2000) was born on June 9, 1909 in Stralsund, Germany to Saloman (1883-1942) and Sabine (b. 1879, née Brandwein) Eckdish and had two brothers: Max (1910-1984) and Martin (1916-1982). Paul married Sarah Kornblum (b. Krakow, Poland, 1913-2003) in 1937. In late 1939, Paul and Sarah fled Germany with their young daughter, Ruth (b. 1939). They left Holland aboard the SS Rotterdam and arrived in the United States in December 1939. They settled in Illinois and had a son, Michael (1948-1967). Solomon and Sabina were killed during the Holocaust.
