Pessakh and wife Sara

Pessakh definitely had a wife called Sara, as mentioned in the letters.

What is her surname?

In the Glos Gminy newspaper of February 1938 there is a Hirsz Rapoport marrying a Sara Cukier.



The year is about right.
Could there be a mistake?
Maybe he was Pessakh Hirsz?

I could not find any Hirsz Rapoports in any obituaries or other documentation.

Wedding photo.



The season of the wedding is winter.
Are the people in the photo wearing winter clothes? Maybe yes.

In the List of Jews in Legionowo in 1940, I noticed a few Cukiers.

I noticed a Szmul Cukier ( age 62 ) in Reymonta 62
              a Hirsz Cukier ( age 60 ) in Jagiellowska 30
              a Khaya Cukier ( age 52 )
        all living close to Slowackiego Street, where Pessakh and Sara lived.

Could they be related to Sara?
