1. We have information, that Helena POLAKOVA was married while a student in France to Dr. CESAR on 16 February 1932. It seems that Helena married three times - first to someone with the name of SIGAL, than she married Dr. CESAR . Police registration documents in Prague have Helena SIGALOVA married Dr. CESAR and his permanent place of residence is given as Romania.

They had a son Mario Andre CESAR who was born on 16 February 1938.

Helena cancelled her registration in Prague on 27 July 1938 and left for USA. She lived there under the name of Helena KOHN and in 1949 gave her address as 5101 Van Loon St., Elmhurst, New York.
