Heinrich Becker was born about 1910 in Neu-Kano, Russia,[1] to parents Johann Heinrich Becker, from Friedenberg, and Amalia Karlovna (Wiesner) Becker. [1] He was one of nine children born to Heinrich and Amalia:[1]
His father John Heinrich Becker was killed in 1937 at an undisclosed location in Russia.[1] If Heinrich survived the purges of the Volga German villages that began in 1941, he would have been exiled to the east, probably to a labor camp in Siberia or to Kazakhstan. His mother Amalia Karlovna (Wiesner) Becker was sent to Kostanay, Kazakhstan.
