Thomas asked Georgia Hunter:

Eliska is my great aunt. The ship left Nice and was held up in Casablanca. Eventually making it to Rio. My father, who still lives in Rio, has a lot of documents and possibly stories that could complement your research. My father knows of the story of Eliska and Addy. Would you be interested in me connecting you? @gord, Eliska and Jiri (my grandfather) are from Brno, Tchesklovakia.

Georgia Hunter Hello Thomas!

I had the honor of meeting Eliska in my research, before she passed. What an incredible woman she was. I wrote a blog post about my time with her:

I've been in close touch since with her grand-daughter, Emma, who's been a wonderful resource. Feel free to contact me via email if you'd like to connect me with your father!
