Mazal Asael's uncle Marko Beniamin and his wife Vinucha in Israel

Mazal Asael's uncle Marko Beniamin and his wife Vinucha in Israel

This is my uncle Marko and his wife Vinucha in the 1960s in Israel. He was a retailer and the photo was taken in their shop. My uncle Marko was compelled to leave for Israel as he couldn't get Bulgarian citizenship and he was chased out as a Serbian citizen in 1940. He left for Israel then, before the foundation of the country. Earlier he had worked as a barber.
