with my great grandfather's and grandfather's handwriting, from mother's heirloom.

Mum was 16 at the end of WW2, when she (literally) dug some of the family documents (and the old family photos) out of the rubble of our home.

Our family lived at Castle Hill close to the Royal Palace and War Department, so that building was bombed the longest, and got liberated at the very latest in Budapest.

These papers are the result of great-grandfather's and grandfather's research of our ancestors, a kind of family tree. Mum tried to set them together.

Ezeket az elsárgult papírokat Anyu holmijai közt találtam. Mesélte, hogy az ostrom után ezeket a régi családi fotókkal együtt szó szerint a romok alól kaparta ki, sajnos csak egy részüket sikerült megmenteni. Szerencsére ennyi megmaradt, nagyapám és dédapám kézírása. Anyu próbálta meg összerakni anno.
