Who was Markus Mordechai Winter? What family did he have in Lubaczow? 
He was 72 years old, so he probably had a wife, children and grandchildren.


Was he related to the following WINTER  family who became Holocaust victims?


Israel WINTER  and his wife Malke WINTER nee BEGLIEBTER were both born around 1900. 

Israel Winter was a merchant, but also a SOFER STAM -  a scribe.
The couple had three children - Avraham (born ca 1927), Berl (born ca 1930) and Chana (born ca 1933)

From the Page of Testimony we learn that Israel's parents were Avraham and Rivka Rachel. 

That means that  the father/grandfather Avraham WINTER died before 1927.

Perhaps Avraham WINTER and Mordechai WINTER  were brothers?

There was an additional WINTER family:
Selman WINTER ( born  around 1860?) was married to Sara nee LEMPEL, and together they had at least three daughters:
Marjem, married KOENIG, was born around 1887.
Rachel Leja, married HALPERN, was born around 1900.
Ryfka, born around 1910, died in 1916.

I have not found the grave of Ryfka yet.

Perhaps Avraham WINTER, Mordechai WINTER and Selman WINTER were brothers?
