- Roermond -

      “Director of the Roermond branch of the Rotterdamsche Bank. Member of the resistance under the pseudonym Frans. With his own funds, the baron provided housing for escaped prisoners of war.” Traces of War
      “On January 20, 1945, German paratroopers stopped the former head of cabinet of the Queen’s Commissioner in Limburg, R.A.Ch. van den Boorn, near Maasbracht, as well as the branch manager of the Rotterdamsche Bank in Roermond, Baron F.M.M. van Lamsweerde, both from Roermond. They wanted to get through the lines into the liberated area. Van Lamsweerde had with him ƒ 60,000,- for skippers in Maasbracht. The money was taken from him. Matthaeas had them both shot on the spot.” (Cammaert VIb, p. 622).
