Tag #116845 - Interview #102297 (Janos Dorogi)

My great-grandfather was called Steiner.  He must have been born around 1840-1850.  He had a sort of guesthouse in Gyongyos. He died relatively young. He had 7 or 8 kids, both boys and girls.  If I look at his picture, I had a really ‘gutmuttig’, dear, and very handsome grandfather.  He wasn’t deeply religious.  He had a true Jewish family, full of love.  But the rest of the siblings, the kids all married Jews. He wasn’t a Neolog in the sense of today – he surely kept the great holidays.  I don’t believe the house was kosher.  Well, the guesthouse wasn’t kosher for that matter.  One of his sons took over the guesthouse.  He was nice and a great singer.
