Golda Gutner‘s uncle Berl Vengerov

Husband of my aunt Soreh-Liba, Berl Vengerov. Beginning of the 20th century; place unknown.

Keeping order around the house of such a large family and feeding the workers of - all of these duties rested on the shoulders of my grandmother Fruma-Tsivye. They also had cows. Their children certainly helped the parents. Everyone was working. They owned nothing but the workshop. Aunt Soreh-Liba, for instance, soldered together with her father's workers.
Soreh-Liba, the eldest daughter of my grandparents, married a worker from grandfather's workshop - Vengerov. They were in love with each other; when he was in the army, she waited for him. After grandfather's death Vengerov owned the workshop. Brothers Meishko, Avram and Shlemka first worked for Vengerov. But Vengerov had a difficult character, and the brothers organized their own workshop.
