The sisters of Gabor Paneth's maternal grandfather Eszter and Netta Bergsmann

My maternal grandfather's sisters. The three elderly ladies are Eszter, Netta and Lujza Bergsmann. The two young girls are probably their daugthers. My great-grandparents, their parents, married in 1862. They lived in Mengusfalva, a village in Oberland, now Slovakia. Moricz was a merchant. They had eight children, three of whom are the ladies in the picture. Another was Ignac, who became a doctor, and another was my mother's father.
