Biography

Susanne Schumann -- whose name was, technically, Susanna, though it was never spelled that way during her life (see 'notes')^[1] -- was born in Eberstadt, Hessen, on the 29th March 1906.^[2] She was the daughter of Susanne (nee Knieß) and Franz Allwin Schumann^[3]; she had two brothers and three sisters.^[4]

Susanne married Georg Kern on the 13th December 1928.^[5][6] They were married in Eberstadt, Hessen.^[7][8]

In 1946, Susanne applied for a Kennkarte [ID card], as was required by the government at the time.^[9] Her application was processed at the police precinct in Darmstadt, Hessen. The Kennkarte application form tells us that Susanne was living at Eberstadt with her husband, Georg; she was occupied as a hausfrau [housewife]. She was slender, with an oval face, grey eyes, and dark blonde hair. She was 1.54 cm tall.^[10] A photograph of Susanne, from her Kennkarte, can be found [here].

Susanne died in Hessen.^[11]

Notes

A note on her name: Susanne's family have always spelled her name "Susanne". However, an official notation, written 23 February 1965, on her marriage register, stated that her name on her birth register was actually "Susanna".^[12]
