Fritz Martin Werthauer

Fritz Martin Werthauer lived in Rotterdam for a few months from the summer of 1919, where he traded in machines. Towards the end of the year he left for Danzig (now Gdansk in Poland). In June 1920 he married in Berlin, and the couple's children were born in Frankfurt am Main in 1922 and 1925.

In July 1933, Werthauer initially left without his family for Amsterdam, where he moved into a room for a few months. Reunited with his wife, son and daughter, Werthauer lived from November 1933 onwards in the Rivierenbuurt (River District), a few hundred metres away from the Frank family. In February 1934, the daughters of both families attended a party, in fancy dress. There, a photo was taken of them with Barbara Ledermann and two unknown children. After about two years, the Werthauer family moved to Stadionweg.

In mid-April 1941, a few weeks before it closed for good, the American consulate in Rotterdam issued the family with emigration visas. On 22 May 1941 they left Bilbao on board the Marquẽs de Comillas for New York. They arrived there on 10 June and took up residence in a flat near Central Park. He died in December 1965.
