Gesina Groen would have been 80 today. But she was murdered on her 1st birthday.
She was born on July 26,1941 in Amsterdam and murdered in Auschwitz July 26,1942, together with her mother.
There are no pictures of Gesina, just a picture of the house she lived in. The address is Nieuwe Keizersgracht 70, Amsterdam, which is a prime location in Amsterdam nowadays. The house would be too expensive to afford for most people now.
All I know though is that when Gesina lived there, there were in total 12 people living in that building. None of them survived.
The oldest resident was Sophia Cohen-Rosenberg, she was murdered April 9, 1943 in Sobibor, aged 78.
There may have been another child on the address, Abraham de Vries he was the foster son of Marcus Rooselaar. Abraham de Vries was murdered in Sobibor ,July 16, 1943, aged 11. However it is not certain that he lived on the address.
