Status onduidelijk

Judy de Winter was the daughter of Rosa de Winter-Levy (1905-1985), a close friend of Otto Frank after the war.[1] Judy was born on 27 October 1928 in Zutphen, where she lived with her mother and her father Emanuel de Winter (1889-1944) at Coehoornsingel 10.[2]

At the end of March 1943, Jewish people were banned from living in the province of Gelderland and were summoned to report to Camp Vught.[3] The De Winter family therefore went into hiding with a farming family in the village of Varsseveld in early April. After more than a year in hiding, the family was discovered and arrested on 16 July 1944.[4] After an interrogation in Velp, they were transferred to the detention centre in Arnhem. On 22 July 1944, they were transported to Westerbork transit camp.[5] There, like the eight people from the Secret Annex, they ended up in penal hut 67, where they met Anne Frank.[6]

On 3 September 1944, Judy was deported to Auschwitz concentration and extermination camp along with her parents and the eight people from the Secret Annex.[7] After arriving at Auschwitz on 6 September, the men and women were separated and selections followed. Judy and her mother were selected for forced labour, but her father was murdered the same day in one of the gas chambers.[8] After the selection, Judy was registered and had the number A25251 tattooed on her arm.[9] Like Anne, Margot and Edith, Judy and her mother ended up in hut 29 of Auschwitz-Birkenau after selection and registration.[10]

On 26 October 1944, Judy was selected for deportation to Kratzau (Chrastava).[11] In the camp, she was put to work and had to fill grenades. In Kratzau, Judy joined a group of French women who took care of each other in the camp. On 8 May 1945 , she was liberated by the Soviet army. Via Reichenberg (Liberec), she travelled by train and truck to Prague, Pilsen, Bayreuth and finally to Belgium. On 31 May 1945, she was reunited with her mother in a convent near Roermond.[12]
