Miriam Kurtz (1910/20's — 1970's) was a woman living in Germany during World War II who was part of the Ehrenfeld Navajo sub group of the Edelweiss Pirates youth insurgents. During her early twenties she and other Ehrenfeld Edelweiss Pirates were captured by Nazi soldiers in Cologne during 1944 who interrogated her about her insurgent activities and the location of an artifact that the sub group's leader Barthel Schink had told her about, (inlcuding it's location in Cologn Cathedral's Spire of St.Petrus) aswell as ordering her to take it to the Assassins in Paris before they were captured and separated. According to research by Abstero Industries Surrogate Initiative assistant Satish the Nazis found something matching the artifact's description sometime in 1940.
She was the mother of Karl and the grandmother of Seamus. Her grandson's genetic memory was later used in Abstergo Industries' Surrogate Initiative in 1980, in which Miriam's memories were relived by her son's ex-wife Aileen Bock, the initiative's lead.
