When she arrives, she moves in with her brother [name_f]Em[/name_f]ánuel and her sister Mária who are already living in [name_u]America[/name_u] - in Chicago. She gets a job working in a factory. The hours are long, hard and dangerous but she’s proud to be sending some money back to her family still in her homeland.

Not long after arriving, she meets a young man who is twenty. He was born in [name_u]America[/name_u]. His name is [name_m]Walter[/name_m] [name_u]Jesse[/name_u] [name_m]Banks[/name_m], and he is a mailman.

His parents are against immigration and strongly disapprove of their son marrying an immigrant. However the girl is pregnant so they quickly marry. The baby is born soon afterwards in 1901. It is a little boy, named [name_m]Edward[/name_m] [name_m]Gazsi[/name_m] [name_m]Banks[/name_m].

The couple get a small apartment and start their life together. For extra money she takes in sewing jobs.

Their family continues to expand quickly…

In 1908 a set of twins is born and are both healthy. They are a girl and a boy called [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f] [name_m]Banks[/name_m] and [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] Illés [name_m]Banks[/name_m].

The family continues to expand…

Their father was imprisoned on political grounds soon after [name_m]Eddie[/name_m] was born and after struggling along on her own for years, their mother, [name_f]Veronica[/name_f], died when [name_m]Eddie[/name_m] was 7. The older siblings looked after the younger but eventually, money got so tight that [name_u]Issy[/name_u] married a rich landowner’s son to try to help her destitute family. Unfortunately, her new in laws looked down upon her family and refused to help, moving [name_u]Issy[/name_u] away from them.
