Smushkevich (Smuschkewitsch) (née Ellern) Khaya (Chaja) Iosifovna (20 May 1893, Grīva) — homemaker.

In 1914, Khaya Smushkevich moved with her parents to Kazan. In 1921, she moved with her husband to Daugavpils. During the war years, she was in evacuation with her children in Novosibirsk. In 1945, she returned to Daugavpils, from where in 1949 she moved to Riga.

In 1918, in Kazan, she married Kalman Saevich Smushkevich (1893, Grīva — September 1945, Daugavpils), a tailor who worked in Shur’s workshop. In 1941, he failed to evacuate and remained in Daugavpils. He was interned in the ghetto, then deported to a concentration camp in Germany, where he miraculously survived and in 1945 returned to Daugavpils.

They had three sons and two daughters: Sholom Kalmanovich Smushkevich (1919, Kazan — ?), who served a sentence in Olaine (OC-78-10 for theft), and later worked in Auce at a knitted goods factory; Simon Kalmanovich Smushkevich (1923, Daugavpils — 1935, Daugavpils); Gesel Kalmanovich Smushkevich; Frida Kalmanovna Goldfarb (1921, Daugavpils — ?), who in 1957 left Riga with her husband (a Polish citizen) for Poland, and later moved to Tel Aviv, where she worked as a hairdresser and her husband as a watchmaker; and Leya Kalmanovna Dregis (1935, Daugavpils — ?), a sewing-machine operator at the factory “Elektra,” whose husband was a painter.

Her father was Iosif Ellern ((?) — 1926, Kazan).

Her mother was Sheine Ellern ((?) — 1932, Kazan).

Her brother was Motl Iosifovich Ellern (1898 — ?), who lived in Moscow.
