Olga Chernyavskaya, Russia  ( Malke Klovanskaite's granddaughter )


This photo represents a group of people living in or near Rozalimas. The photo was taken between 1948-1950.
The house on the photo doesn’t exist anymore. It burned down. It was located behind the church, at the road leading from the church to the school. The spot were once stood this house has become a yard.

On the second row, we see, behind the woman with the child on her knees, a tall woman with blond hair whose name was Veronika Lipinskaite. Next to her, at the right, we see Malke Klovanskaite ( the Jewish survivor of the so called Black Day from Rozalimas in August 1941, encircled). The third woman right from Malke , looking to the left ( blond hair) was Adele Minikaviciute. The other woman looking to the left( below Adele and with the dark hair ) was Alma Bukauskiene. These two women were friends of Malke.The woman with the braid, blond hair, next to Malke at the right was: Onute Cepkeviciute


The story told in Rozalimas is, that after the war Malke had had made  a coat, in the colour Burgundy,  by a tailor in Rozalimas whose name was Zakarauskaite. Malke was very fond of this coat. ( By then, she lived already in Panevezys). Therefore her friend Elegija Vitkute Golubova- Pusvaskiene appreciated it from the bottom of her heart when Malke lent her the beautiful “burgundy-coat” for her wedding day. Malke helped Elegija also by  choosing the wedding dress (a red one with black leaves). Elegija lived with Malke in the same apartment in Panevezys. 

Probably the father of Malke, Itshik Klovanskis
