Notes	60 years old. Born ca 1874 Son of Psachja and  Rachela LIPINER. Group One: Family name on gravestone Group Two: Death register

According to the Hebrew/Yiddish spelling of the family name, my first transcription was different, but searching for Pages of Testimony I found that the son of Aharon Chaim Lipiner, Patachia Lipiner, in 1955 had submitted Pages for his mother, his brother and sister and the sister's two sons, and he writes the family name in Latin letters as LIPINER.

I had never encountered the given name Patachia  before, but now, seeing that Aharon Chaim Lipiner's son had the same name, it is clear he was named after his grandfather.

When Aharon Chaim Lipiner died in 1934, he left behind his wife Lea and five children.

His wife Lea was born in 1885, and the two children listed as Holocaust victims were born in 1904 and 1907. 

The daughter Rachel Lipiner (married family name?), born 1904, lived in Tarnogrod (around 46 km from Lubaczow) and was killed there with her sons Yitzchak born 1927 and Asher born 1930 in 1942.

The son Benjamin Lipiner, born 1907, married, was according to his brother murdered when the ghetto in Lubaczow was destroyed in the beginning of 1943, and so was their mother Lea Lipiner.

The son Patachia Lipiner lived in Lod in Israel in 1955.
