Alice Ruth Feldmann was born on December 24, 1899 as the seventh and youngest daughter of Sophie and Simon Feldmann. Her parents ran a successful yarn factory. This is initially located at Stralauer Strasse 41 in Berlin Mitte. In 1897, her father buys a property in Oberschöneweide, the excursion restaurant „Tabbert´s Waldschlösschen“  and adjoining land. He wanted to expand his factory and so Ruth, as she was henceforth known, was the only one of the siblings born in Oberschöneweide. Her father Simon is involved in the local council and works here as an arbitrator, among other things.

On September 1, 1896, Fritz was born in Berlin as the sixth child in the family of the factory owner Simon and Sophie Feldmann (née Wagner). At that time, the family still lived at Stralauer Strasse 41. Like his siblings, Fritz took up a practical profession. After the death of his father Simon in 1925, Fritz took over the management of the tannery together with his mother. Fritz continued to run the business as it had been built up by his parents. The factory had around 100 workers and employees.
