About the Family
These individuals were issued visas by Aristides de Sousa Mendes in Bordeaux on June 11 and June 17, 1940, after having been explicitly denied visas by Salazar, the Portuguese head of state.
Suzanne BARET traveled with Alexander and Marcelle WEBB-WARE on the ship Exeter, sailing from Lisbon to New York in August 1940.
