Biography

Wedding record states Zelman lived on Aleksandrovskaia St. 27; Dvora lived on Stefanovskaia St. 4

There is a record on LitvakSIG in the Vilnius Ghetto: Lists of Prisoners Volume 1 that seems to record her, her husband, and their two children. The surname is Sapirstein, at address Strasuno 7 - 16, page 304. The four people are Zelman, born 1893, Dora born 1895, Leizer born 1926, and Rocha born 1928. If this is her family then I guess her son Leizer is named after her father Leizer, who I believe died before 1919.

There is a 1925 death record for a person who seems to be her first child: Ida Szapirsztejn, born in Vilnius 2 Feb 1921 to parents Zelman and Dwora, died in 1925. Cause of death unknown. Address Zawalna 31/27. (Dvora's mother also appears at Zawalna 31, in the household registers.)
