Uncle Izso stayed in Pest as a young man, and married his first-degree cousin, Irma Steiner. They didn’t care about the blood relationship, the blood composition wasn’t known in deep, so they didn’t have any objections to it.

The two mothers, the mother of the girl he married, and his mother were sisters. Uncle Izso was a clerk in Rakospalota – it’s one of the suburbs of Pest – at the lamp factory. In 1912 they had two daughters, Luci and Klara, twins, but not identical twins.

They moved home to Nagyborosnyo, their son, Gabor was born there. They had moderate means in Nagyborosnyo, so I invited them to stay in Brasso. Since there was a small pub near the grocery we were renting, where they cooked soup as well, and it became available.

knew that if it was handled by a straight, honest man, who didn’t water down the beer, it could develop very well. I announced uncle Izso, they moved to Brasso, rented the pub, and it worked very well indeed. They were in Brasso during the war as well, uncle Izso and his wife too died there after the war, but I couldn’t tell more precisely when. Klari too died in Brasso, she was married about two times.
