This is my great-grandmother Elizabeth Sternova, nee Willheim, photographed in Vienna on 26th February, 1899. It's probably a wedding photograph.
My great-grandmother was born in 1873 in Brno and died in 1959 in Great Britain. She and my great-grandfather Adolf had two children, Helmut Stern, my grandfather, and Adriana Brodyova, nee Sternova. She left Slovakia after the war. Her daughter Adriana Brodyova, nee Sternova, had left for Britain with her husband earlier, in 1939.
