The sixth transport left Usti nad Labem to the Theresienstadt Ghetto on 11 June 1943. It consisted of four persons: 43 year old Adolf Glässner, chairman of the Usti nad Labem offices of the Association of Jews in Germany, his wife Hedwika Maria and their 19 year old daughter Anita, all residents of Usti nad Labem; the fourth person on this transport was 62 year old Emil Steiner who was previously interned at the Schönwald camp. Very little is known about this transport. It is assumed that the deportees were driven in buses or trucks from Usti nad Labem to Theresienstadt. Prior to their deportation, the deportees were searched and all valuable items in their possession were confiscated. In the Theresienstadt Ghetto listings the transport was recorded as XIX/5 where the Roman numeral XIX refers to the area of Usti nad Labem. According to historian Rudolf Wlaschek, none of the four deportees on transport are known to have survived. They were deporteed to Auschwitz on October 1944, and were in all likelihood murdered upon arrival.
