Presumably Bernhard & his wife Elisabeth and daughter Gertrud fled to France together but they were subsequently arrested/deported separately. Bernhard had been incarcerated in Gurs. Gertrude was working in the fields as "cultivateur" at Saint-Mards-en-Othe, in the Aube region. Elisabeth was staying in Nice.

Details of deportation and subsequent death courtesy of:

Elisabeth was in the region of Nice, Côte d'Azur, where she was rounded up in the notorious "Rafles d'août" in August 1942. The arrested Jewish citizens were incarcerated in the Caserne Auvare for a while before being put on a goods train, in locked-up wagons, and transferred to Drancy.
