He had another wife and children. He ditched them when he fled to Britain. The Nazis slaughtered them. He did try to give Zyklon B as a development to save his life and prove he wasn’t Jewish, but despite his attempts to appease, Hitler made it clear that Haber still shouldn’t be trusted since Judaism was in his blood. Haber abruptly left Germany, and his family was summarily executed after he suddenly left them there without a notice of the fact that he was leaving or that they were going to die.

I was unaware of any of this. I believe I learned what I learned of Haber from a documentary, and I don't believe it mentioned any of that. Either that, or I didn't see all of it.
In any case, Haber turns out to be a tragic figure with nothing but misery at the end of his life.

Haber had converted to Lutheran I believe sometime during his studies or soon after...and his second wife divorced him...Before they were married she had converted to Christianity....they had issues thereafter, ( as with his first wife), regarding his development of chemical warfare. Still, he was buried with his first wife.
