 Family history:  I am Yishay Shmuel (Tiberiu) ROTH, grandson of Chaya Rivka WEINBERGER.  I was born at her house, but now live in Israel.  My grandfather, Shmuel WEINBERGER was killed in World War I as an Hungarian soldier, therefore his family was not deported during World War II.  My uncle, Yechezkel WEINBERGER, was married and his family was deported.  He joined his family, hoping to save them, but the whole family was killed.  My grandmother left to Israel in 1951, 3 months after my birth, with Margit who was single.
