26. Anne’s Sister Wrote a Diary That Was Never Found

Anne Frank’s sister, Margot Frank, also wrote a diary during their period in hiding. Sadly, this diary was never found. A Dutch woman, Miep Gies, preserved Anne’s diary and gave it to Otto Frank after the war, but no one ever turned over Margot’s diary. Margot was transported to both Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen alongside Anne. She died, presumably of starvation or Typhus, only weeks before her younger sister.
