This is my mother's sister Vera Golfeld (nee Minkovskaya) and her husband Moishe Goldfeld. Photo made in Kiev. She married Moishe Golfeld. He owned an inn and was quite a rich man. They didn't have any children. After the revolution Moishe drove a taxi. He earned enough for a living. When the Great Patriotic War began Moishe was called up to the army and was killed in the first months of the war. Aunt Vera was in evacuation in Tashkent and later she returned to Kiev. She died in 1975.
