Margita Steinerova

Margita Steinerova

I think this is my mother Margita Steinerova, nee Abrahamova, when she was single. My mother was born in 1907 in Banovce nad Bebravou, which was in Austria-Hungary at the time. She had a twin sister Irena. So the woman on the picture could also be her sister. My mother died in Auschwitz in 1942. And, I?m sorry to say I was never on good terms with my mother. She never had time for me because she worked in a shop. I do not know much about her at all.
