Samuel Goldberger

Report an issue

This is my maternal grandfather Samuel Goldberger. The photo was taken in the 1920s.

Grandpa was from Dolné Otrokovce, by Hlohovec. That's where our entire family survived the war.

I was never on the farm in Dolné Otrokovce during the time my grandfather farmed there. When he got old, he left the farm to one of his sons and he and Grandma moved to Topolcany. There they lived in this dark apartment that I didn't like at all. Grandpa died there, too, when I was around five.
