Help, anyone I think calling Voss's family "dyers" might be a little misleading. Papa Voss _owned_ a manufacturing business as well as a hunting lodge and, by the photos, a rather substantial and definitely upper middle class or better home. I can't hunt down exactly what Papa's business manufactured but as Krefeld was the center of a rather substantial silk and velvet industry, it certainly is possible that the busines involved dyeing cloth, among other things. But characterizing the Vosses as "dyers" would imply a lower rung on the socio- economic totem pole than they in fact occupied. But, you're absolutely correct about Werner not being Jewish and, like you, I'm perplexed as to how that recurrent rumor arose.
