Raya and Kolia Gorosh and their daughter Efros

This is my younger sister Raya's family: Raya, her husband Kolia Gorosh and their only daughter Efros. She was about three years old. They were visiting Mama in Aluksne, and were photographed for the memory. This photo was taken in Aluksne in 1938, photographer Andersons.

I was born in 1901 in Aluksne, Latvia. There were five of us in the family. My brother Sahne, born in 1898, my sister Rosa, born in 1900. Revekka was born in 1903, and Raya, the youngest one, was born in 1905.

Raya married Kolia Gorosh, a trader from Riga, in the early 1930s. I don't remember his Jewish name. Their daughter, Efros, was born in 1936. My older sister Rosa's only daughter Roni was born in 1936. I was very attached to my nieces and nephews.
