Mozes Lopes Cardozo and Theresia Gotieb married 29 April 1925 in Amsterdam but four years later, on 15 April 1929, the were already divorced. From this marriage three children were born, namely Rosette on 19 September 1925, Meijer on 14 August 1928 and Johan on 30 July 1929. After the divorce of their parents, all three of them ended up in other families.
Rosette Lopes Cardozo was taken as step-granddaughter into the family of Jacob Pachter, the 2nd spouse of her grandmother Rosette Barend, who was already divorced in 1907 from her grandfather Abraham Lopes Cardozo and has been remarried in 1911 to Jacob Pachter. Also her father Mozes Lopes Cardozo came living in with his mother, where also his sister Elisabeth still lived in her parental home. However a few months later, in October 1927 she got married to Levie Schrijver and went with him living at their own address.
Rosette lived in the Pachter family till she reported in Westerbork on 25 Juli 1942; on 7 August she has been put on transport to Auschwitz. Her step-grandfather died in Amsterdam on 10 February 1942 and was interred in the Jewish Cemetery in Diemen. Her grandmother came in Westerbork on 5 September 1942 and two days later deported to Auschwitz, where on arrival there on 10 September 1942, she was immediately killed.
Since Rosette arrived in Auschwitz on 10 August 1942 and had to work there as forced labourer under terrible conditions, her exact date of death is not known. Therefore, after the war, the Dutch authorities ordered the City of Amsterdam to draw up a certificate of death for Rosette Lopes Cardozo, in which has been established that she has died in Auschwitz on 30 September 1942.
Meijer Lopes Cardozo ended up in the family of Levie Brilleman and Leentje Brilleman-Kopee, who lived in the Foeliestraat 8-2nd floor in Amsterdam. Since then Meijer was known in the municipal administration as Meijer Brilleman Lopes Cardozo. He stayed there till he was deported 21 September 1942 together with Levie Brilleman from Westerbork to Auschwitz, where on arrival there on 24 September 1942, they were immediately killed. Levie Brilleman’s wife Leentje Kopee died already a few months earlier in Amsterdam, on 14 May 1942 and she was interred in de Jewish Cemetery in Diemen.
Johan Lopes Cardozo was adopted as stepson in the family of Aäron Gobets, who had remarried his mother Theresia Gotlieb on 1 October 1920. They had two more daughters: in 1933 Sara was born and in 1935 Anna. The family then lived at Korte Houtstraat 38 3rd floor in Amsterdam.
On 18 May 1942 Johan and his stepfather Aäron Gobets were taken to Westerbork and that same day put on transport to Sobibor. On arrival there on 21 May 1943 they were both immediately killed. His mother Theresia Gotlieb and his two stepsisters Sara and Anna have been registered in Westerbork on 5 February 1943 and on 4 May, mother and daughters were deported to Sobibor and on arrival there on 7 May 1943 immediately murdered.
