Albert-Hubert-Joseph Meunier (1898-1944) était originaire de Saint-Gilles mais vivait à Auderghem avec sa famille où il exploitait un café lorsque la guerre éclata. Il se lança alors dans le groupe de résistance 'Incomparable' et participa activement à la diffusion de journaux interdits tels que la Libre Belgique, Peter Pan, La Voix des Belges. Il fut arrêté en 1942, déporté comme prisonnier politique, et décapité en 1944. ex. Transvaal, rue du Transvaal, rue de l'homme de bien (1917), Meunier (1946) (remark in French, as published)
