Fisher

Moshe Leib Shapiro had at least two daughters that we know about, Sora Rivka and Shayna, as well as a son Meir Yitzchak. Sora Rivka married Shimon Berkal (grandparents of our photo contributor Arky) and Shayna Shapiro married Berel Segal.

[Sora Rivka Shapiro Berkal died of cholera in 1917 while the family was in exile from Lithuania in Simferopol, Russia.]

Moshe's sister, Sara Shapiro, married Elihenoch Fisher. Sara Shapiro Fisher was an aunt of Sora Rivka Berkal and Shayna Segal.

	Mordechai (Motke) Fisher, son of Sara Shapiro and Elihenoch Fisher, who was a well known baker in Ushpol. During the Holocaust, he was taken to the cemetery with one of his brothers and shot in a small gully behind a row of graves which is still evident today. His sister escaped a house to house search by running into the woods and joining a group which managed to reach Russia. She was the only member of her family to survive and lives in Israel today.
