Shprintze (Sadi) GROSZ was my mother's maternal grandmother. Shprintze was born about 1855 in or near Avas-Ujvaros. Her mother's maiden name may have been ROTH. She married Moshe Gershon BERKOVICS about 1873. Their children included Chana Sondel b. about 1875, my grandmother Zlate b. 1878, Dovid Leib b. 1879, Shlima b. about 1880, Mihaly b. 1884, Zalman Leib b. 1885, Hani b. 1888, and Szerena b. 1889. Shprintze died in or near Avas-Ujvaros probably in the early 1920's. Please contact me if you have information about GROSZ family from this area of Szatmar megye. Attached picture dating from about 1905 shows (from left) Shprinze, Szerena, and Velvel BERKOVICS, my great-grandfather's brother.
