Hello everyone,

I am looking for my distant relatives with the last name KUPERMAN in Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil.

Two brothers, Peisach and Schashma (Shahna) Kuperman immigrated from Murafa,
Ukraine to Brazil in early 20th century. I have found their graves on the JewishGen
Burial Database:

Kuperman, Peisach - born August 20th, 1902 (Ukraine), died January 28, 1996 in Rio
de Janeiro, Brazil (cemetery: Cemiterio de Israelita de Vila Rosali Novo)

Kuperman, Schashma (born Shahna) - born November 5, 1898 (Ukraine), died Sept 23,
1994 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (cemetery: Cemiterio de Israelita de Vila Rosali
Novo)

Their parents were Nuchim and Golda Kuperman that stayed behind in Ukraine.

I am looking for their descendants - does anyone have any information about their
families? I have already contacted the Brazilian Chevra Kadisha and
the Federacao Israelita do Estado do Rio de Janeiro.

Also, if anyone is located there and is willing to go to the cemetery and take a
picture of the gravestones for me, I would be very appreciative and be willing to
pay for this. Please let me know if you know of anyone that can do this - I have
the exact locations of the gravestones, the brothers are buried next to each
other.

One additional piece of information I have is that one of them may have
owned a shoe factory in Brazil.

Thank you,
Zhenya Stekovic
