Form with details typed-in, b&w photo attached, embossed stamp from the United States District Court of the District of New York, U.S. Certificate of Naturalization for Rosa Zabejinski, born May 24, 1885 in Russia. Narrative: Gregory Hirsch Braude (donor’s father) was born in Smorgon, near Riga, Latvia, on May 23, 1900. Between that time and 1920, his family had moved to Berlin, Germany. Vera Braude, née Zabejinski, was born in Moscow, Russia, in 1908. In 1920, Vera’s family moved to Berlin, Germany. Gregory met Vera Zabejinski (born on June 23, 1908, in Moscow) at a masked ball in 1929 and then got married. They remained in Berlin until the spring of 1938 and moved to Paris, France. Their daughter, Marina was born there on January 17, 1940. Around 1941, Gregory, Vera, their daughter Marina, and Johanan (one of Gregory’s elder brothers) escaped Paris towards Marseilles. Then they were smuggled out to Lisbon, Portugal. While in Lisbon, the family got visas for Cuba and left for Havana aboard the Serpa Pinto. They remained there for approximately six months. The family later moved to New York City after Gregory got a visa for the United States. He and Vera had a son, Alexander, in New York in 1946. In New York, Gregory and Johanan established a business, Braude Brothers Leather Tanning Corporation, while Vera was an artist and a homemaker. Vera’s parents, Rosa Zabejinski (née Belkin, on May 24, 1885) and Gregory Zabejinski (born on March 23, 1879), had joined them in Paris, while her sister, Rufina ("Ina"), hid in a fishing village in France. Rufina had married Marc Beaucourt, a non-Jewish Frenchman. Rufina’s in-laws, the Beaucourt, had arranged to build a hidden room behind their daughter Lydie’s room for Rosa and Gregory to hide into.
