This photograph taken in Austria in 1929 or 1930 shows the NIVES family. The father, Bernard, was imprisoned in Dachau and Buchenwald between April 1938 and February 1939, before seeking refuge with his family in France, where people later helped save him. Fred, the older child, emigrated to the United States in 1940 and served in the U.S. army. Ernest, the younger child, born in Vienna on April 8, 1925, was arrested on August 26, 1942, with his mother, Julia, in Laspardelières (Puy-de-Dôme), in central France. Sent by the Vichy police to the regional assembly camp in Montluçon, they were transferred to Drancy and deported on convoy 32 of September 14, 1942. Ernest survived. He moved to New York, and is active in preserving the memory of the Holocaust victims.
