Lydia Poliwara, born on 10.7.1944 in Hamburg, died on 27.9.1944
Essener Strasse 54 (formerly camp Tannenkoppel, Weg 4, also called "Tarpenbek = Forced labor camp of the armaments industry in Hamburg Langenhorn)
Lydia Poliwara was born in Hamburg on July 10, 1944. Her mother Uliana Poliwara, born on December 22, 1923 in Morisiwka, was of Roman Catholic faith and single. Deported from her native Russia, she had to perform forced labor in Hamburg-Langenhorn for Hanseatische Kettenwerk GmbH (HAK) and Deutsche Meßapparate GmbH (Messap). She was housed in the "Ostarbeiterlager Tannenkoppel", Weg 4.
On the day of the birth of her twins, Uliana Poliwara was admitted to the Women’s hospital (Frauenklinik) Finkenau, Hamburg-Uhlenhorst. Eight days after giving birth, on July 18, 1944, she returned to the Tannenkoppel camp with her twins Lydia and Iwan. There Lydia and Iwan had to spend the short time of their lives. The nutritional and living conditions were completely inadequate for them there.
On September 13, 1944, Lydia was admitted to the Langenhorn General Hospital with a diagnosis of "nutritional disorders." She died there after two weeks, at 5:00 a.m. on September 27, 1944. The hospital's obituary lists the cause of death as "pedatrophy" (emaciation - most severe degree of nutritional disturbance) and Blumenthal as the signing physician.
Lydia was 2 months, 2 weeks and 3 days old.
Seven days after her death, her burial took place on October 4, 1944 in the Ohlsdorf cemetery, grave location: Q 39, row 7, no. 25. Her grave is no longer preserved. At the end of 1959 it was levelled together with at least 146 graves of children of forced laborers on area Q 39.
Her twin brother Iwan lived in the "Ostarbeiterlager" Tannenkoppel for four more months. On January 30, 1945, he died on the way to the Eppendorf University Hospital. The cause of death was given as "enteritis" (inflammation of the intestines) in the death notice. He was also buried in the Ohlsdorf cemetery and his grave is also no longer preserved.
