N.B. Some relevant Yad Vashem records feature quite a lengthy and precious biography on the DAVIDSOHN & GRÜNER families, apparently based on testimony of Anni SCHLOMM, a former apprentice (Catholic) in the DAVIDSOHN firm, who remained a friend and kept contact with family members up to the time of their deportation.

Nathan is described as being particularly "good-looking".
