(1/5) On 03-05-1926 Aida Irene de Leeuw (*) was born in Amsterdam. She was the daughter of Samson (*), born 17-07-1892 and Heintje nee de Leon (*), born 12-09-1893.
They lived in Amsterdam
She had 6 siblings of which (just) one survived:
> Susanna survived (1924-1982)🕯️❤️🕯️
⬇️
(2/5) These siblings did not survive! 😢
> Herman, born 28-01-1918 and his wife Anna nee Pais, born 01-11-1920 (*)
> Jacob David, born 04-09-1919, died 29-03-1945 in Mauthausen.
> Henriette Albina Emile, born 14-05-1921 (*)
⬇️
(3/5) And:
> Rachel Suzanne Helena, born 29-10-1922 (Sobibor 09-07-1943)
> Helena Fortuna, born 06-11-1927 (*)
most of them (*) were killed in death camp Sobibor on 04-06-1943.
(4/5) The parents of Herman's wife, Anna went into hiding and asked Herman and Anna to join them. Herman did not want this, because he could not stand incarceration and Anna didn't want to leave her husband!
Anna's parents and brother survived the war in hiding.
(5/5) Both Henriette and Jacob were engaged. The fate of both fiancés is uncertain (to me).
Aida, we will remember you and all of your family members! 😢💔🕯️✡️
