Diaries

Elisabeth Jacoba van Van Lohuizen-van Wielink: May 10, 1940

Last night the roar of aircraft kept waking us up. First at around two o’clock, later at around four. The second time, I got up to take a look, but couldn’t see anything. I thought they might be German or English planes, heading for their enemies. I tried to sleep again. Though the noise never stopped, I was suddenly woken up by shouting.

Elisabeth Jacoba van Van Lohuizen-van Wielink was a Dutch citizen who began keeping a diary immediately after the German invasion during the Second World War. She and ultimately wrote 941 pages. Her husband was a pharmacist and optician who owned a grocery store in Epe, near Apeldoorn.
