One of Grandmother Irma's sisters married a Mr. Dalnoki. She died
naturally. She had another sister whose name I do not know. This family has
a sad and tragic history. They had a daughter and two sons. Both of their
parents died at the same time of Spanish flu. Jakub Steiner took care of
the sons. They were all deported to a concentration camp, where they died.
My grandmother's sister Zali married Mr. Blody. The Blody family had a
clothes shop in Prievidza. They had a son, Jeno, and a daughter, Vilma.
Next sister was Katarína, who married Mr. Fromer. Fromer's family were
salesmen in Prievidza, and owned a clothes shop. They were the competitors
of the Blody family, into which one of the Steiner sisters was married.
Katarína and her husband had two sons, Adolf and Bedrich. Adolf probably
emigrated to the USA, and Bedrich was a business partner of my uncles who
lived in Morocco.
There was one more daughter, my grandmother's sister, Etel, who married Mr.
Cigler. They did not have children. The Cigler family had a factory of
dairy products in Prievidza. They died in a concentration camp.
My only living relatives are Uncle Ladislav, who lives in Prague, and
Auntie Josefina in Germany.
