The Freudenberg family progenitor is Moses Freudenberg (1786-1846), a Jewish German draper who migrated from Burg to Berlin. He had 10 children. Most of his descendants were murdered in the Holocaust. One exception was Siegmund Freudenberg (1828-1908) and his descendants. Siegmund migrated to the United States in 1858. Another exception was Ernest Herbert Paul Schwerin (1919-2010), whose mother was Clara Freudenberg (1856-1939). He used forged paperwork to migrate from Nazi Germany into Switzerland. Dr. Julius Werner Freudenberg, D.D.S. (1884-1964) was a dentist who survived the Holocaust by migrating to New Zealand. The Hans Bernhard Schwerin family archive, containing papers from the Freudenbergs, Schwerins, and Schotlanders, was brought to the United States after WWII by Eva Amalie Rutkowski (1887-1990), and is now archived in the Jewish Museum Berlin. Some family papers are archived with the New Jersey State Archives.
