Miklos Preisz with his family

My father's brother Miklos Preisz and his family: his wife Margit Preisz, nee Deutsch, and his children Kati and Laci. The photo was taken in Nagykata in the 1920s. I think Miklos was born around 1895. He had a wife, Margit Deutsch, and they had two children, Kati and Laci. They had a grocery and haberdashery store in Nagykata. Miklos' family was the richest, and they had a big shop. They worked a lot, but they lived very well. For example, at every nearby village (all named 'Tapio-something-or-other') there was a fair twice a year, and they always went there to sell. There was a dray, they'd put the whole shop on it and they'd go at dawn, to Tapioszecso, let's say, where they'd sell all day long, and then they'd come home in the evening.
