Suzanne
and Rothschild
Hospital, spring
1943 Jacqueline |
|
This group photograph was taken at the Rothschild
Hospital, from which Aloïs Brunner drew his victims with relish. It shows
eight young mothers with their babies. Suzanne Grouman YAHIA, whose
younger sisters were deported under the name Grouman, is the fourth mother from
the left. Suzanne had married Samuel Yahia when she was 17. She was just 19
when her daughter Eugénie was born in Lille (Nord), on August 20, 1938.
Arrested when she was again pregnant, Suzanne was interned at the Rothschild
Hospital until she gave birth, so that both she and her baby could be deported.
Suzanne and Jacqueline, born on February 17, 1943, were deported on
convoy 57 of July 18, 1943. That convoy
included at least nine mothers with small babies, one of whom was six days old.
Eugénie, who had been taken in at the UGIF children's center in
Louveciennes, was arrested by Brunner's Gestapo on July 21, 1944, and deported
on the last big convoy from Drancy, convoy
77, of July 31, 1944. |
