Hello,
this is an interesting topic here and worth going into it.
As already mentioned by others, the first name's spelling (Frida  
instead of Frieda) might suggest Eastern European descent (Cyrillic,  
Yiddish-Hebrew transliteration - or maybe also Hungarian, Romanian  
etc. spelling convention). I'd go for Jewish ancestry.

As a young prosecutor dealing with NS-crimes back in the seventies one  
of our main sources had been "(Bad) Arolsen" i.e. that ITS  
Internationaler Suchdienst (International Tracing Service). Only  
recently, ITS Arolsen IS NOW OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, which means that  
historians or scholars like you are allowed to do researches there.

Here is a link to their website: http://www.its-arolsen.org/english/

and an article about the archive:

Best regards

Alfred
