I have much more about Ludwig (Louis) Bodenheimer, that was my father uncle by marrige.

All the children of Benno were born in Heidelberg Germany, I think that the family came to Heidelberg from Handschusheim Germany.

Louis married Else Hahn (Daugther of Neumann hahn and Rosa Lowenthal) in 1910 in Berlin.

Louis (b.25.11.1879 d.21.09.1957in N.Y) -- [dates wrong? Could be b1890?] worked in a firm that manifactured clothing , throw his buisness contacts he met Elsa Hahn(b.1.12.1889 in Stargard d.13.3.1969 in N.Y).

Her father had a firm that manifactured clothing for boys , he took charge on the buisness and had a big sucsess - he knew how to be a buisness man, he was a"bon vivant" person like all the rich Berlin Jews.

After Hitler was getting to power he lost his power on the buisness and the workers commite forced him to play their cards , but still he was convinced that the German people will get back to senses. He want in 1937 to N/y on buisness - May be he met sigmund there?

When he came back to Berlin he was promply put in camp at Oranienburg, was lucky to get out and only after that they decided to leave.

He wanted to setteled in Switzerland but didnt get a visa, They had to take a lot of money from Sigmund in order to get premision to leave .

The only possibility,because they didnt have passports any more , was to live with the trans sibirien train to far east. They spent ayear in Japan and Hong kong till they arruved to U.S.A in 10.12.1940.

They had 2 sons-

2/Herbert (b.9/12/1920 Berlin d. 19.3.1993 in Skokie-Chicago) left Berlin in 1938 to learn in Bruseles, found him self in franch camps during the war and spent time in san domingo with the Franch foreign rigion , untill he came toMaiami in 1946.
