Note
Chaya was the beauty of the family, she had green eyes and high cheekbones. She and her husband Itse (Isaac) had a daughter Golda. Golda was 5 years old when the Germans invaded Lithuania, her parents arranged to have her live with a Christian family as their niece thus ensuring her survival. During the war Chaya was imcarcerated with Zelda in the Stutthof concentration camp. During the evacuation in 1945 they participated in the death march and were were saved by a German solder who told them to hide in a barn along the route of the march and brought them food. Golda was eventually reunited with her parents after the war and Sol brought them to Glasgow where he helped them set up a textile business.
