Edith Newton (née Kramm) collection
Little information could be gleaned from the collection itself save for the fact that Edith Kramm had been a Jewish refugee from Vienna and that she had a relationship with another former refugee, Paul Newton (formerly) Gröschel, whom she later married. A photograph of a memorial stone in the collection lists a number of individuals who were apparently deported to their deaths during the Holocaust. Included in this list are the names Bertha and Simon Kramm- possibly Edith's parents?
Contact was made with some of the correspondents of recent letters in the collection in an attempt to reconstruct Edith's biography. This was partly successful in so far as a connection was made between the Huppert family and Edith. Edith Kramm was a cousin of Herbert, Ernestine and Lily Huppert, Austrian Jews from Prague. Indeed on the same photograph mentioned above the name Alois Huppert is included.
For further biographical information see series 1924/4 which contains correspondence about Edith Newton.
