Stanley Szapira
I am the great grandson of Annie Szapira who bequeathed
the large stained glass window in the Shul. Her family lived in Boston
and her husband was Lewis Szapira. They had 4 sons namely Moses,
Solomon, Samson and Bert.
My grandfather was Solomon. He left for SA in 1899. Moses
changed his name to Napier and his descendants are all over England.
Samson married and his children went to Canada. Bert changed
his name to Bernard and some children went to the USA but a son remained
in Yorkshire. There are other branches of the
Szapira family (Lewis's brothers ) who settled in Brighton but I have
been unable to trace them. Annie was a Kaminsky
and is buried in the Hull Cemetery along with her mother, brother and
Lewis.
Kindly donated by Stanley Szapira
