An especially poignant piece written on Edith VOGEL and her family here:

Edith and Marcel Vogel | Fleeing Hitler

http://www.fleeinghitler.org/story/edith-and-marcel-vogel/

"From Ruth Norrington’s autobiography ‘Leopards in the Air’

She (Edith) looked upon our home as hers and spent most of her time with us, spending hours practising on the Bechstein. We heard of the appalling conditions that her brother was suffering in Dachau and my other made up her mind that she would get him out if it was humanly possible. She heard through the Red Cross that the German government would consider letting a Jew out of the camp, if a home and job could be offered him in England. My mother offered the one and my father the other and after many months negotiating with the Austrian Embassy, he arrived in 1937. He was half starved, and his back was heavily scared with the marks of the daily beating with rubber truncheons, naked in the perishing winter, that he had been given by his Nazi hosts. The whereabouts of his mother was unknown, and it was assumed that she had died in the gas chamber of the camp to which she had been sent."
