1952 Press Photo Count and Countess Ivan du Monceau de Bergendal with their son

The infant heir to the Manville asbestos millions was apparently spirited out of the country by his Belgian diplomat father as a Federal Court issued a habeas corpus for the child's delivery "forthwith" to the court. Tommy Manville de Monceau, 14-months, is shown (above-L) with his mother, Countess du Monceau, the former Lorraine Dresselhuys. The child's father, Count Ivan G. du Monceau de Bergendal, military and air attache at the Belgian embassy in Washington, is shown (above-R) at the time of his marriage to the countess.
