Ilse Windesheim is the mother of Peter Windesheim, who is also listed in this memorial book. She found shelter in the home "Isenburg" after Peter's birth. There she cared for her son for one year. In November 1937, Ilse left Neu-Isenburg to take a job in a Jewish home for the elderly in Würzburg. She gave Peter up for adoption.

Ilse Windesheim succeeded to flee to Argentinia during the Second World War and moved on to Montevideo in Uruguay thereafter. She married Rudi Wohlgemuth. The couple later emigrated to Israel.
