Nely Gellertova and relative

Africa again. This photo was taken in 1940 when the cousin of Sani Gelert went to visit his relatives in Nairobi, Kenya. You can see my aunt Nely Gellertova, nee Preisova here. The house is similar to the one they left behind in Zlin. My uncle Sani Gellert and my aunt Nely lived in Nairobi during World War II. They could save their lives thanks to businessman Bata. He could see that the situation in Central Europe wasn't good for Jews so he decided to send them to his branch in Nairobi. My aunt and her daughter were cooking for the workers in the Bata factory and this way earned money to survive the war. My uncle Sani fought in the Czechoslovak Army in Egypt. All the family survived and after the war a son, Andrew, was born, my cousin, who lives in London.
