Meta Haag - van Pels was a younger sister of Hermann van Pels. Meta married Herbert Haag in 1928 and moved to Hamburg.[1] Her father was best man at the wedding, even as her uncle Jonas Hess.[2] From Hamburg, she emigrated with her husband to Brazil in the 1930s. Her father wanted to join her in 1939, but Brazil rejected his request.[3] A letter from her brother Max shows that she had been widowed. She subsequently married Max Herman (born 19 October 1892). She remained childless.[4]
