Barbakova Elka Borisovna (1924-)

Barbakova Elka Borisovna (04.06.1924-, Zilupe Region) - seamstress. She was the daughter of Liberman Boris (1896-1941, Zilupe Region) and Liberman Rivkah (1898-?, Zilupe Region). She completed six years of primary school. From 1938 to 1941 she was a seamstress at private workshops in the town of Zilupe. In 1941 she was evacuated to the Tatar ASSR (Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic), where she worked on a collective farm “Dawn” in the north of Zhukov until 1943. From 1943 to 1944 she was a seamstress at the “Ognail” artel in the north of Tarkhany in the Tatar ASSR. From 1944 to 1945 she worked at an industrial complex in the town of Kostroma. In 1945 Barbokva returned to Riga and was a seamstress at the Construction Engineering Site №5 PX (military base exchange) until 1947. That same year her family moved to Ogre, where from this point onwards she was a housewife. Together with her husband Barbakov Hanan (1916-, Daugavpils), she had two daughters, Barbakova Sara (1947-, Riga) and Barbakova Ita (1955-, Ogre). Her sister, Liberman Ita (1922-, Zilupe Region), died in the Holocaust. Barbakova's brother, Liberman Zalman (1926-1944, Zilupe Region), died bravely on the front of the Great Patriotic War (WW2). Her brothers and sisters, Liberman Yakov (1920-?, Zilupe Region), Liberman Sose (1930-, Zilupe Region) and Liberman Zelik (1933-, Zilupe Region), lived and worked in Riga in the 1960s.
