Wedding invitation of Edit Kovacs and her first husband, Vilmos Weisz
Invitation to my wedding to Vilmos Weisz in the synagogue on Pava Street, 8th district, Budapest. We spent a very short time together. Vilmos was drafted into forced labor in June 1942. He was allowed to come home to see his newborn baby, Maria. He came home once in 1943 and a few times in 1944. He was finally taken in November 1944 and shot dead for stealing one potato in forced labor in Balf.
