Wife of Himmler Found in Tyrol Believed Dead
In Bolzano Italy on May 16 Frau Margaret Baden Himmler and her 16 year old daughter Gudrun were found in a mountain chalet 16 miles north of Bolzano.

Erich Schnitzler led American troops to the chalet where Himmler aides had fled from Munich. The daughter and Frau Himmler may be classified as displaced persons rather than prisoners by U S authorities.
