Luise Kretsch writes to LBG requesting affidavits to emigrate from Palestine to America with her husband and son as the area where she lives is very dangerous. She is sister of Ludwig Marx (a daughter by Heinrich and his second wife). LBG completes the necessary forms for the affidavits. She writes again in 1953 asking for their affidavits to be renewed. They are in Haifa, Israel. LBG agrees to sign the papers again. The family immigrates and arrives in NYC on April 23, 1953.
