This is a photograph of my grandfather Adolf Weissenstein, who I never knew because he died before I was born, the only thing that I know about him is that he was a tailor and lived in Nachod. He and my grandmother Pavla Weissensteinova (nee Pollakova) had an older son, that is, my uncle, Otto Weissenstein, who was born in 1894, and my mother, Ella Wernerova (nee Weissensteinova), who was born in 1906.
