Mina Belenkaya and her sons Leonid and Semyon

This is a picture of my mother's sister Mina Belenkaya, nee Shoov and her two sons: Leonid, born in 1922 (on the right) and Semyon, born in 1926 (on the left). The photo was taken in Astrakhan in the 1930s. I have vivid memories of my mother's sister Mina, born in 1900. Mina lived in Astrakhan. Her husband Isaak Belenkiy was a photographer. Mina had no education and she worked as a cleaning lady, then as a janitor and later as a deactivation assistant. Mina and Isaak had two sons: Leonid and Semyon.
