Jacques Kasma was one of the 45 young people who inhabited this house after the Liberation. He stayed there until he turned 18, in 1953.

During the war, Jacques Kasma's father was a prisoner in the POW camp Stalag VIIIC, near Sagan, Germany; he survived the war. Jacques' mother was deported from Drancy (France) to Auschwitz (Poland) on July 22, 1942 and is belived to have been killed in the camp. Jacques survived in hiding in Normandie, France. After Liberation he lived in an orphanage in Le Vésinet, a town West of Paris. Opened in 1945-12, the house was accommodating 45 teenage boys and was administered by OSE (Œuvre de Secours aux Enfants or "Organization to Save the Children").
