Aunt Esther with her elder son

This is my father's sister Esther in the 1920s, with her elder son Mois. She was born in Sofia in the house at Pernik Street. Esther was the youngest of my father's sisters. Her husband's name was Isak Primo, whom she married in Bulgaria. They had four children: Mois, who lived in Israel, Reni, who used to live in Plovdiv, Juliet and Benjamen, who emigrated to Israel. Of these four, only Julie is alive and she lives in Israel.
