11. Four More Jews Joined the Franks After a Week In Hiding
Many Jews were hidden throughout the Netherlands as part of the Dutch resistance. Miep Gies, fearing for the safety of her Jewish friends and neighbors, hid her dentist, Fritz Pfeffer in the Annex along with the Franks. An entire family, the van Pels, consisting of husband and wife Hermann and Augustine and their son, Peter, also joined the Franks. It is estimated that about two-thirds of the Jews hidden by the resistance movement survived the war.
