General Notes
On one postcard, Willy signs himself Willy Gräwe; on another William Hegt.
Willy wrote highly detailed letters that were preserved by their recipients, his sister-in-law Anna and the daughter of his half-brother Otto, Lieselotte Reuter.
Willy and
Louise were married. They had a son and a daughter, named
Arthurje and
Harriet.
Family Notes
In one letter to Lieselotte, he mentions that his wife left after 44 years of marriage. Since he used the word "Scheidung" divorce, it is not clear whether she actually got divorced or just left him because of the rigors of the WWII postwar years.
