Frau Fritz Wassermann

These 52 pictures came in one package from an Ebay purchase in 2006.

Sorting them was a chore. Fortunately most of them are dated and some have locations noted. The name Frau Fritz Wassermann occurs only once but it is on the reverse of a passport picture along with what appears to be the Date of Birth: 20.11.19. The pictures date up through 1958 and one that is possibly 1974. She lived in nazi Germany.

Note, originally I thought the name was "Bassermann" because of unfamiliar script.
What can you tell about her story?

These photographs were originally presented here back in 2007 as a slide show. The slide show script stopped working properly recently so the page has been revised to a scrolling page of all of the photographs.

Some time back, LOST GALLERY looked for Frau Wasserman on Ancestry.com but found nothing conclusive. A Hans Helmut Wilhelm Fritz Wassermann was found at about the right age born in the right place in Germany, but nothing else was found about him.

It is always a mystery how a photograph of any of these precious children could end up lost or abandoned. Here are a few. You will probably say "Ooh..." at least once.
