Lev Dubinski’s mother's aunt Miriam Reizis

This is my mother's aunt Miriam Reizis. My grandfather, Meyer Reizis' brother took this picture on her 50th birthday in Belaya Tserkov in 1910s.

My grandfather Meyer had 2 sisters and brothers. I only knew one sister Miriam Reizis, born near Belaya Tserkov in 1860s. She lived in Belaya Tserkov later. She didn't have any education and was a housewife. Miriam had two daughters: her older daughter Tsypoira was deaf and dumb. I don't remember her older daughter's name.  They lived in Basseynaya Street in Kiev. Both daughters perished in Babi Yar in 1941. She also had a son named Moisey. He worked as a doctor in Belaya Tserkov. Miriam died in Belaya Tserkov before the war.
