Margarethe (Grete) Kernegg (nee Wolfram) was born in Vienna, Austria on 22 December 1900 to “an average European Jewish middle class family”. She attended University studying German, English, French and History, and graduated with a Ph. D in June 1923. She married Hans Kernegg (19.12.1893 – 16.04.1944), an academic, lawyer and officer in the Austrian Army during World War I around 1923.
In the early 1930s, Dr. Grete Kernegg was involved with "The Word of the Woman" (Das Wort der Frau), an "independent Sunday newspaper for the cultural, social and economic interests of women [offering] practical advice for house, home and kitchen, health, socializing, sports and fashion". In 1934 Margarethe and Hans left Vienna and moved to Nice, France. In April 1944 they were captured and brought to Drancy the Gestapo’s assembling camp for Jews in France. A few days later they were put on cattle trains and transported to Auschwitz. Hans Kernegg was murdered on the day of his arrival in Auschwitz.
Margaret was in Sydney by 1948 where she re-united with two sisters, Ida Ferson and Anna Cohn, she had be-friended in Auschwitz. She has a British Passport from the Commonwealth of Australia dated January 1956 and she appears on the Australian Electoral Roll in the seat of Wentworth in 1958 and 1963 as Margarethe, and then subsequently as Margaret from 1972-1980. Arriving in Australia by ship from San Francisco on 12 June 1968, her arrival form identifies her as having Australian nationality and being a teacher/translator.
