Schmoul Lerner (Sacha’s father-in-law, Anroum Schmoul Iankel Iosiowitch Lerner, called Samuel on their marriage certificate as mentioned above) also has a record, but he would have been 56 years old in 1916. This document does provide his own parents’ details and a physical description is also provided. I will add further details and a translation as I continue.
Joseph Lerner (Sacha’s brother-in-law) holds a record which also allows more detail for his family and his own description. Written under his record we see the following (any gaps were due to being unsure of the word):
