The ten Booms became a foster family to a long series of refugee children, missionary kids, and orphans. The family was also deeply involved in Christian work in Holland, including ministry to the Jews. |
|
1920s-1940 |
Corrie led Bible classes in public schools and taught Sunday school and organized and ran a network of clubs, first for girls and then for both girls and boys under the sponsorship of the Union des Amies de la Jeune Fille. The girls’ clubs became Girl Guide clubs, with Corrie as one of the leaders of the movement in Holland. Later, because she felt the clubs were losing their Christian emphasis, she formed De Nederlandse Meisjesclubs (The Dutch Girls Club) and continued to lead these until the occupation, when the Germans forbade group meetings. |
|
1941-1944 |
Motivated by their Christian faith, the ten Boom family began to help and hide people in danger of arrest by the Gestapo. (The Netherlands had been invaded and occupied by the German army in 1940.) They lived in hiding in the ten Boom’s shop and home on Barteljorisstraat in Haarlem (known to the family as the Beje and which the family had owned since 1849) for varying periods of time. Many of these were Jews, fleeing Nazi racial laws. A number of the ten Boom's friends and relatives worked with them and they had contacts with the Dutch underground resistance. Corrie's sister, Nollie van Woerden, was discovered harboring Jews and arrested in 1943. Corrie, after pleading with numerous officials, found a sympathetic doctor who arranged for her release. Willem's son Kik was arrested for his work in the resistance. He was sent to Bergen Belsen Concentration Camp, which was later overrun by the Russian army. Prisoners in the camp were then sent to a labor camp in Russia, where he died. |

The Gestapo raided the Beje on February 28, 1944, and Corrie, Betsie, Willem, Nollie, Casper, Nollie's son Peter, and dozens of other people were arrested during the raid. The six people in the secret room in the Beje, however, escaped detection and were later able to leave unseen. Corrie was separated from her family, including her father, whom she never saw again. All the family members were imprisoned in Scheveningen prison. |

Scope and Content
[NOTE: In the Scope and Content description, the notation "folder 1-1" means box 1, folder 1]
The material in this collection includes correspondence, newspaper clippings, annual reports, passports, photos, photo albums, guestbooks signed by visitors to the ten Boom home in Holland, and pamphlets. There are a few items on the ten Boom family and Corrie's life before World War II, but most of the material is about her experiences in the Ravensbruck concentration camp during World War II and her work after the war as an evangelistic speaker in many different parts of the world. Most of the material in the collection came from the foundation set up in Holland to support her work, but the contents of folders 1-5 through 2-5 and much of the contents of 3-6 and 3-8 through 3-10 came from Andrew Van der Bijl, who served on the boards of both her Dutch and American foundations. The arrangement and labeling of folders was supplied by the archivist.
There are several documents from Corrie's pre-war life. These include photos, photo albums of the ten Boom family (described in the Location Records found elsewhere in this guide), a manuscript by her father in Dutch about the watchmaking trade (folder 3-7) and the spiritual life of his family (folder 3-2). Other documents deal with her and her family's efforts to save Jews during World War II and the punishment they suffered for it. There are several pictures in the photo file of the secret bunker later called the Hiding Place where refugees were hidden and of the people who hid there. Folder 1-2 has copies of the correspondence in Dutch between Corrie and her sister Nollie and others when Corrie was imprisoned in the Ravensbruck concentration camp. Some of these letters have written or typed transcripts in Dutch and/or English, origins unknown. The very frailty and cheapness of the paper and ink of the originals underline the extreme difficulty of life in the camps, which eventually took the life of Corrie's father and sister Betsie. (NOTE: Because of the fragile nature of the records, the materials in folder 1-2 are copies. The originals are stored elsewhere and cannot be used.)
Corrie's work after the war assisting displaced persons and later traveling the world as an evangelist is also documented in the collection. Some of this is touched on in her letters to her sister Nollie (folder 1-4) as well as other letters that touch on her work in Taiwan, New Zealand, and South Africa (folder 1-3). Folder 3-3 has some of her miscellaneous notes with sermon illustrations, quotes, and random thoughts. Similar, although later, material can be found in folder 3-4. Folder 3-5 has a selection of her passports. Apart from this material, there is not too much in the collection on the very early years of her postwar work. She published a small newsletter to keep her supporters and friends informed about her travels and folders 3-6, 3-8, 3-9, and 3-11 contain incomplete runs in German, English, and Spanish. The bulk of the remaining material (folders 1-6 to 2-5) consists of records of her two foundations. She early established a small non-profit foundation in Holland to serve as a repository for gifts that people wanted to give to her work, This foundation was called the Corrie ten Boom Stichting. In late 1973 or early 1974, Christians Inc. was set up in the state of California. Correspondence, minutes and reports in these files deal with relations between the two corporations, the development and impact of The Hiding Place (first as a book and then as a World Wide Pictures film), the cooperation and friendship between Corrie and Bible smuggler Brother Andrew, Corrie's speaking engagements around the world, finances and budgets of the corporations, various Christian endeavors supported by the foundations, and Corrie's final illness and death. The Dutch foundation maintained the ten Boom home in Haarlem as a kind of museum and folders 2-6 to 3-1 contain the guestbooks of these museums. They contain fascinating glimpses into the reactions of many people to Corrie's life and work.
The materials in this collection were received in May 1984, from the Corrie Ten Boom Stichting of Holland, in April 1986, from Andrew van der Bijl, and in September 1989, from Larry Thompson from Brother Andrew via Paul Snezek.
