      <p><![CDATA[Hugo Steinhardt (born 1887) and his wife Lilli ran a hostel in Frankfurt that had originally been set up as a Jewish ophanage. At the lead up to the war however, it became home to Jewish boys from the provinces whose parents could afford to send them to the Jewish school Philanthropin in Frankfurt. During the "Kristallnacht" in September 1938 the hostel was attacked and the Steinhardt's immediately started contacting wealthy Jews abroad for support.

Lord and Lady de Rothschild responded by arranging for the 31 boys at the hostel and Mr and Mrs Steinhardt and their two daughters Helga and Lore, to come and live at their estate Waddesdon in Britain. The 30 boys, as well as other evacuee children from London, lived at Waddesdon during the whole war, under the nickname "the Cedar Boys".]]></p>
