MARGRET ELIZABETH REY

Margret Elizabeth Rey was born May 16, 1906 in Hamburg, Germany. Her father, Felix
Waldstein, was a well-known member of the German parliament and Margret was use to a lot
of activities in the large house that was home to five children, four servants, and a
dog, as well as her father's political colleagues, who were frequent visitors.
