Father of Avraham of Serhei
Yekhezekel Lazdei
Father of Avraham of Serhei, and therefore great-grandfather of both Dov-Ber (Berel) Komisaruk and Esther Leib.
Documentedc. 1710 – c. 1782
The name he carries in the collaborative tree seems to be taken from his place, Lazdijai, in southern Lithuania.
His son Avraham was the father of two women who married into different families —Khana Serhei to David Komisaruk, Liba to the Gaon’s son— and whose children, Dov-Ber and Esther Leib, married each other. That is why Avraham and Esther Jaffe appear twice in Khana Reizel’s ancestry, and Yekhezekel does too.
