Date of Death/Place of Death-

Ilse Schönfeld was two years old when she was received at the Neu-Isenburg Home of the Jewish Women’s Association in July 1932. She stayed there until the age of nine. After the November pogrom in 1938 during which the main building in which the schoolchildren had been lodged was destroyed, Ilse had to be temporarily transferred to Isidor Marx's Jewish orphanage at Röderbergweg in Frankfurt. As one of the few school children, she returned once again at the end of November to the Neu-Isenburg facility for several months. On April 27, 1939, Ilse Schönfeld was given a notice of departure from Neu-Isenburg to her home town of Wohnbach according to the lists of the home. After the departure from the city of Neu-Isenburg, she returned to the Jewish orphanage in Frankfurt. Ilse's last address was the Children’s home of the Association of “Weibliche Fürsorge” at Frankfurt Hans-Thoma-Straße 24.

On September 15, 1942, the Children’s home of the Association of “Weibliche Fürsorge” was closed. Almost all remaining children including the twelve-year-old Ilse Schönfeld were deported from Frankfurt to the Theresienstadt ghetto. On May 18, 1944, Ilse was sent to Auschwitz concentration and extermination camp. No trace of the fourteen-year-old girl exists there on.
