There are few men who are man enough to deflect well-deserved praise
and instead let it shine on the women in their lives. But Harvey M.
Krueger, vice chairman of Lehman Brothers, is one such man. When
trying to prompt Krueger to speak about his life success, for him all
roads lead to home. His wife of 52 years, Connie, and his three adult
daughters-Kathleen, Elizabeth and Abigail-and grandchildren are the
foci of his abundant praise, pride and profound love.

Published: April 14, 1988
LEAD: Peter Krueger, vice president in charge of European furniture at
Christie's auction house, died Tuesday of complications from AIDS at
the Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan. He was 32 years old and
lived in Manhattan.

Peter Krueger, vice president in charge of European furniture at
Christie's auction house, died Tuesday of complications from AIDS at
the Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan. He was 32 years old and
lived in Manhattan.

Mr. Krueger joined Christie's in 1978 after serving as assistant to
the curator of architecture and design at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in
Manhattan and assistant editor for design at New York magazine.

He is survived by his parents, Harvey and Constance Krueger of
Manhattan, and three sisters, Abigail and Elizabeth, also of
Manhattan, and Cathleen Cohen of Wynnewood, Pa.

Her mother: Johanna (Hanna, Hana, Hena), daughter of Zalel, née
Schapir (Schapiro) was born on July 23 of 1857 in Taurogen (this date
of birth was stated in Passport Issuance book of Riga Prefecture for
1921 and in the house register of Kr.Barona Street 24/26, however
according to the census for 1897 she was 49 years old, see her photo
from the Passport Issuance Book for 1921). According to the 1st All
Russian census for 1897 the family of Jossel, son of Hillel Jossel
lived in Riga at Shkunnaya Street (Å oneru iela) 5, apt. 3 (see
Appendix No.1).
Jossel and Hana had at least three daughters besides daughter
Ite-Blume:

daughter Jenny (Scheina) Jossel was born in ca 1875 (aged 21 in the
census for 1897), however later in her Latvian passport and in the
house registers her date of birth - August 23 of 1883 Schaulen
district (see her photo from the Latvian passport for 1921) (according
to the census for 1897 Itte-Blume/Bertha, Jenny and Dora were born in
Riga, however the birth records of the Jewish community in Riga do not
contain information on their birth, according to other documents they
were born in Lithuania).

daughter Dora (Golda) Jossel was born in ca 1876 (aged 20 in the
census for 1897, however later in the house registers her date of
birth – 1888 and January 4 of 1892 in Taurogen). Her husband Mosus
(Moisey), son of Aron Faiwusch, born on January 19 of 1876 in Schaulen
(now Shaulai, Lithuania). Their marriage was registered in 1919 in
Riga. They had no children.

daughter Liba-Gita (Liba-Gitel), born on December 21 of 1880 (Julian
calendar) in Riga, died on October 30 of 1881 in Riga, cause of death
– consumption. Since 1914 Hana Jossel, Scheine, Golda and her husband
Mosus Faiwusch lived in Riga at Kr.Barona Street 24/26, apt. 2
(previous address – Paulucci Street 5).

Jossel Jossel died in 1916 in Riga, aged 66 (entry No.79 in the death
records of the Jewish community in Riga for 1916).

Hana (Johanna) Jossel, née Schapir died on April 29 of 1925 in Riga,
cause of death – infarct.

Scheine Jossel, Golda Faiwusch and her husband Mosus were struck off
the house register of Kr.Barona Street 24/26, apt. 3 on October 30 of
1941 as moved to ghetto.
Jossel's father Hillel, son of Jossel Jossel was born in ca 1829 in
Kelm (aged 67 in ca 1896, aged 71 in 1900), died in 1908 in Riga
(entry No.240 in the death records of the Jewish community in Riga for
1908). His occupation – trade assistant in the firm of Zelmer. His
wife Riva, daughter of Jossel (maiden name is not stated) was born in
ca 1834/1835 in Taurogen (aged 61 in ca 1896, aged 66 in 1900), the
alphabetical register to the death records of the Jewish community in
Riga for 1907 contain information on the death of Riva Jossel, aged 72
(entry No.224, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that
very often the age of person was determined by their outward
appearance and was stated in some documents rather approximately).
Hillel had at least two sons besides Jossel: son Meyer, son of Hillel
Jossel, born in ca 1852 in Taurogen (aged 47/48 in 1900), son
Raphel-Oscher Jossel, born in ca 1848 in Kelm (aged 52 in 1900), died
in 1906 in Riga (in the census for 1897 he was written down as a
brother of Hillel, but according to other documents he was his son).

According to the 1st All Russian census for 1897 and in 1900 Hillel
Jossel and his wife Riva lived together with the family of
Raphel-Oscher at Kamennaya Street 21/23, apt. 4.
Ite-Bluma's husband Oscher, son of Jossel Krieger was born on July 14
of 1870 in Vaskai, Kovno province (now Lithuania). He belonged to the
Jewish community in Krakinov. His occupation – a teacher, according
to
the census for 1935 he knew Hebrew language (see his photos from the
Latvian passports for 1921, 1928).

Their marriage was registered on January 1 of 1899 (Julian calendar)
in Riga (see Appendix No.2).
They had at least three children:

daughter Zila (Tsila) Krieger, born on November 28 (Julian claendar,
11 December – Gregorian calendar) of 1899 in Riga (see her photos
from
the Latvian passports for 1921, 1927 and for 1938). Her occupation –
modiste, she had a hat shop at Valnu Street 3/5.

son Leib (Leo) Krieger, born on June 16 of 1903 (Julian calendar) in
Dubbeln (now Dubulti, Jurmala),

son Behr Krieger, born on April 30 of 1906 in Riga.

In 1900 Oscher Krieger, his wife and daughter Zila lived in Riga at
B.Korolevskaya Street 12, apt. 4. In 1900 Ite-Bluma's father Jossel
lived at B.Korolevskaya Street 12, apt. 20.

Since 1913 and up to Second World War the family of Oscher Krieger
lived in Riga at Grecinieku Street 28, apt. 3. The house register of
Grecinieku Street 28 for the time period up to 1917 contain
information that since March of 1916 a widow Sora Haimovna (daughter
of Haim) Krieger from Krakinov, aged 80 (born in ca 1836) lived
together with the family of Oscher Krieger (possibly she was mother of
Oscher).
Blume (Ite-Blume) Krieger died on February 15 of 1937 in Riga.
Oscher Krieger died on April 4 of 1939 in Riga.
Unfortunately, the house registers of Grecinieku Street 28 for
1920-1940 have not survived and we cannot trace further fate of Leo
Krieger.

Behr Krieger served in 1927 in Vidzemes artillery regiment. In
December of 1928 he left for South Africa. He lost his Latvian
Citizenship in 1940 after becoming the Great Britain Citizen.

On November 6 of 1936 in Riga Zila Krieger married to Lithuanian
Citizen Leib, son of Meyer Oschri, born on October 15 of 1893 in
Birzhai. They were deported by Soviets on June 14 of 1941 from
Grecinieku Street 28, apt. 3. For the better clearness the composition
of the family is prepared also in the form of the genealogical table.

In a case only age of a person for a concrete year is indicated in the
documents, his/her date of birth is stated approximately. The place of
birth (marriage, death) is given only in a case if it is specified in
the document. In a case we will find any additional information, the
table can be corrected and supplemented. Since our archives keep the
birth, marriage and death records for the time period up to 1905, for
the birth, marriage, death certificates for the time period for
1906-1921 we advise you to apply to the Latvian Archives of the
Registry Department at the following address: Kalku Street 24, Riga.

Probably the way to go about finding out how to trace Asne Kriger and
Yehuda Chait is through Irina Veinberga or Rita Bogdonova with whom I
dealt initially.
irinwein@latnet.lv

The other possibility is to write to the Latvian Archives of the
Registry Department at the following address: Kalku Street 24, Riga
for the archives of the birth, marriage and death records for the time
period up to for the time period for 1906-1921, because the Latvian
National Archives is only until 1905, for birth, marriage, death
certificates.

Both my grandparents died before WW2 and were buried in Riga, but as
you may know the cemetery was destroyed by the Lats and turned into a
public park. Zila, the sister of my father eventually made it to
Israel in 1972 and died in Jerusalem in 1998. Leo, the brother of my
father was picked up by the Germans after their invasion of Riga
probably somewhere towards 1942 and shot in the back outside his home
in the street.

In 1973 I put a trace on this uncle of mine Leo Krieger while I was in
Switzerland. He was known as the pride of the family and as the
genius of the family. As a child he was only interested in the
sciences and was known to spend hours in solitude locked away in his
room doing chemical experiments and solving mathematical problems.
While kids were out scraping their knees climbing trees and buying
chocolates with their pocket money, he was only buying chemicals,
scales and Bunsen burners. Somewhere towards 1920 my late
grandfather Oscher, received a letter from Albert Einstein in Berlin
to say that he had received a very interesting thesis from Leo and
asked him to please bring his son to Berlin for an interview.
Together they travelled from Riga to Berlin. Einstein interviewed
him for a few hours in his living room while my grandfather waited
outside. Upon completion of this meeting he told my grandfather that
his son was exceptionally gifted and that he wanted him to go to a
colleague of his at the University of Jena in East Germany to continue
his studies. Einstein apologised that he could not take him on
himself since he was shortly leaving Germany for Japan since he was a
dissident. My Uncle Leo then went to the University of Jena. He
then had to leave the University of Jena for discrediting a theory of
a certain professor and the professor told the Dean of the University
that he would leave if my uncle stayed, He then went on to the
University of Basle in Switzerland where he remained for a few years
completing two faculties of applied mathematics and chemistry. He
wrote many papers and was on his way to an important career when the
Swiss expelled all the foreign nationals in 1940., Being a Latvian
national he had to return to Riga and there he was eventually picked
up by the Germans. As I said in 1973 I was in Basle, Switzerland,
and I was fortunate to find his papers at the University and City
Archives. I have photocopies of all of these.

My late father, Behr or Bernard and his Hebrew name Dov, died in
Johannesburg in 1992 and is buried there. My late sister, Genevieve
Kirson nee Kruger died in Johannesburg in 1993. She is survived by
two daughers, Saskia and Gabrielle, both living in Australia and I
have two sons, Omri and Oz Matan both in Israel.

That is the story in a nutshell. Going to Riga was a very special
and moving experience and I remember the day I was in the Archives and
was given the ID book of my grandparents to hold. I remember their
fingerprints in the books and I cried to think that this was the
closest I would ever get to touch them. The grandparents I never
knew.

Please let me know if you have any luck getting the information you
need,

Hag Sameach again.

Roberta

Success at last. I've been busy on the internet.

At first I thought you were related on my father's paternal side which
is the side of my family related to Chaim Herzog but now I'm thinking
your family is connected to mine on my father's maternal side. It was
Benny's response that Batia had contact with the Kretchmers and Segalls
that I came to this conclusion.

Here is a just a snipit of my family tree.
Probably born 1860ish. Loesser Melman m. Bassa Friedman Melman. Their
children born about 1880s were Rueben Melman, Barrel Melman, Yussel
Melman, Ethel Shana Melman PoKempner Singer Cohen (my paternal
grandmother), Bayla (Shana?) Melman Meller, Clara (Kayla?)
Melman Segall, Rochel Melman Gifter, and Nachama Melman Kretchmer who
married Yitzhak Kretchmer. The Kretchmer's are Israelis with jewelry
stores in Tel Aviv.
________________________________________
Shaul Sharoni contacted Batia and Esther and Benny . Benny sent me a
letter in response which follows.

Dear Mrs. Dobrin,

My name is Benny Shiloh and I am the son in law of Batia. Batia is now
93 years old and she is unable to answer your letter. On her behalf I
shall try to answer you and give you some information. We doubt if this
is Hana in the photograph you have sent with your letter. Her name was
indeed Hana Slavin. Among the family names you have mentioned we had
contacts during the years with Krechmer and Segal.

We keep constant connection with Jeffrey who lives in USA and comes to
visit us every year. He had moved to Florida recently so we are waiting
to get his new address and telephone number.

Her father's name was Yehuda Leib and her mother was Asna(t) . They had
two sons and three daughters. Rachel, who married Boris was murdered by
the Lithuanians during the holocaust with her husband, her little
daughter and her parents. Israel, who married Sonya and had a daughter
named Esther. Yonathan married Shoshana and had a daughter name Asnat.
Hana marriedHerman Peer and had Jeffrey and Lesley. Batia married Ben
Zion
and have Esther (my wife), Yizhak and Asnat.

Yours sincerely,
Benny Shiloh

Hi Marlene,

Yes, you have found the right Jeff Peer. My husband is not much of a
communicator, so the job falls to me.

Until July of 2005 we lived in Buffalo, NY. We then relocated to
Jacksonville, FL for 2 years (a long story) and have just recently
relocated (hopefully, long term) to Denver, CO.

Les (Leslie), lives with his wife in Stowe,Vermont.

Chana Peer Slavin was Jeff and Les' mother -she passed away about 7
years ago. Sam Slavin was her second husband.

As far as we know there is no relation to Chaim Herzog.

It is not clear from your letter how you and my husband are related.
It sounds like Lieb Friedman was a friend of your father, and not a
relative.

Anyway - let me know what information you need and I will do my best
to supply it.

Perhaps we could meet, now that we are so much closer together???

Best regards,
Leah Peer
Aurora, CO 80014

Hi Marlene,

This is what we know about Jeff's family:

Leib Freidman was married to Osna. They had 5 children:
Israel
Rachel
Chana
Batja
Jonathan

Israel escaped, with his wife Sonya, from post WW II Russia and
emigrated to Israel with their daughter, Ester. Israel and his wife
are both deceased.
Ester Freidman Noter, is married to Yoram and currently lives in
Israel.
She has much more information and I forwarded your letter to her. She
has three sons Shai, Danny and Uri.

Rachel remained in Lithuania. I do not know the name of her husband.
They were all killed in some post WW II violence - stories told were
unclear. It was not part of the Holocaust.

Chana (1910 - 2000) married Herman Peer (d.1946) and emigrated to the
US. They had 2 sons, Jeff(rey) (b.1943) and Les(lie) (b. 1946). In
1954 she married Sam Slavin. They separated in 1957 but were never
divorced.
Jeff is married to me (Leah) and has a total of 6 children (2 with
me). Les lives in Vermont with his wife, Marion, and has no children.

Batja (b~ 1913) married Ben Zion Koblenz (d. 2006) in Israel. They
emigrated to Israel before WW II.
They had three children: Ester Koblenz Shiloh m. Benny Shiloh. They

Osnat Koblenz, unmarried, has one daughter, Osnat.
Yitzhak is married (name unknown to us) and has one child (?)

Jonathan also emigrated to Israel. He married Shoshana nee ?.
They had one daughter, Osnat.
Jonathan died of kidney disease in the late fifties.

As to the photos. I do not believe that the first is a picture of
Chana - we do not know who it might be.
I think that the third picture, is a picture of Herman's first wife.
The second picture is indeed a picture of Herman.

On Herman's side, Parents names are unknown to us
He had two sisters and two brothers
Aaron -was the eldest and never married and financed all the
brother's emigrations to the US

Emanuel (b.~1942) married to Bee, they have 2 daughters
Dov (b~1947), married to Beth. They live in NY state and have 3
children. We are in contact with them and
I can forward information to them as well, if it is relevant.

Rachel emigrated to Israel and married Ben Zion Kartoun -both are
deceased. They had two sons.
Amnon, who is married to ??? in Israel
Yechezkel (d ~2004 of lung cancer) was married to Yehudit in
