Mauritz ten Brink lived in Ootmarsum. His daughter Fredrike lived with him. In August 1942 the labour exchange summoned him to the Roman Catholic Hospital in Oldenzaal for a physical examination for dispatch to the labour camp at Ruurlo. Mayor Schimmelpenninck van der Oye informed the labour exchange that Mauritz ten Brink was in poor health and suffered from rheumatism and was therefore unable to come for the physical examination. As a result, Mauritz ten Brink was not required to go to the camp at Ruurlo and was granted a stay of deportation.
