Abram Mendelevich Sherayzin & Sosha (Sonya) née Volfson
Life
A Sherayzin household of Mozyr, documented but not linked to the line. Abram, son of Mendel, was born in Azarichi near Mozyr and was a stove-maker. Two Pages of Testimony disagree on his fate: missing in 1941, or killed near Kharkov on 10 February 1943. His wife Sosha survived the war and is buried in Mozyr. Their children were Mendel-Misha (killed 1941), Sofia, Nina and Yakov. Abram's sister Khaya Mendelevna (1896–1963) is buried in Kalinkovichi. Mendel is in the right generation to be a son of Leyba, but nothing ties him.

Disagrees with the family's “missing 1941”.
“To dear mother and grandmother.”
Abram Mendelevich and Mikhail Abramovich.
Born 1923 in Mozyr, a high-school student, killed in battle in 1941.
Almost certainly Mendel-Misha himself.
