Trapido-Ginsburg Family


Leah Trapido (born 1841 in Kupiskis), the daughter of Naoch Trapido and Bluma Kagan, married Zundel Ber Ginsburg (born in Kupiskis in 1840).  Seven of their eight children came to the United States and only Orel (Orchik) and his family stayed in Kupiskis.  (Orel later came to the US and died in St.Louis, but his wife and children remained in Lithuania and were killed in the Holocaust.)
