He was a spiritual Jew and would read with excitement from the Torah. HE was also a Kaidanov Hasid. His father was Reb Yoshua, the writer from Vileyka. The son of Moshe, Shlomo Chaim studied Torah in our minyan, and when he arrived at the age where he would be taken to the army, he escaped and went to London. His last name was Koor and from what I heard he became a Hazan in one of the synagogues in London, where he later passed away…"*
I received emails form other members of the family;
Dear Eilat
Wonderful to hear Breines story
My grandfather - Shlomo Hayim, son of Moshe and cousin of Breine had family both in England and in Russia
Shlomo Hayim had 4 children
Marie - married name Coleman - Stephen's mother
Henry- my father
Hanna - married name Mather
Lily/Leah- married name Broza
I moved to Israel from England about 25 years ago. I live in Efrat about 20 minutes from Jerusalem but work in Jerusalem and commute every day. I have an elder brother Shlomo who lives in Petach Tikva near Tel Aviv and a younger brother Jonathan who lives with my mother in Netanya. My parents came to Israel in 1983 to retire. My father passed away in 1988.
Danny Koor
Eilat
My cousin Danny Koor has been in contact with you, and has sent me all the details he has received from you so far.
We share the same grandfather Shlomo Chayim, or Solomon Koor as he was known in England. My late mother Marie, and Danny's late father Henry were brother and sister, together with 2 surviving sisters Hannah and Lily.
The family lived initially in the East End of London, moving to Notting Hill in the 1920's, where
my grandfather eventually became minister of Notting Hill Synagogue until he died in May 1946.

Avraham Tory nee Golub, 92, Whose Diary Told the World of Nazi Crimes
By KATHLEEN CARROLL
Published: March 18, 2002

Golob, Golub
Avraham Tory ( son of Sara Leah and Zerach Golub) , a Lithuanian Jew whose meticulous diary chronicled three years of murderous Nazi rule and was later included as evidence in war crimes trials, died on Feb. 24 at his home in Tel Aviv. He was 92.
In the Jewish ghetto in Kovno, in central Lithuania, Mr. Tory, a lawyer, served as secretary of the Jewish Council of Elders, an administrative agency formed by the Nazis to carry out their orders. As secretary, he was allowed to leave the ghetto, and had access to a sea of paperwork that documented the horrors he was recording. In almost daily entries in Yiddish from June 1941 to January 1944, Mr. Tory detailed his meetings with Nazi officers and Jewish leaders.
Mr. Tory was helped by Pnina Sheinzon, who took dictation and hid the diary in her home. Few people knew about the diary, and the notebooks were buried underground in large crates as soon as Mr. Tory filled them.
In each, he included a note. ''I am hiding in this crate what I have written, noted and collected,'' he wrote, ''with thrill and anxiety, so that it may serve as material evidence -- 'corpus delicti' -- accusing testimony when the Day of Judgment comes.''
In 1944, he and Miss Sheinzon escaped the ghetto. They soon married, and moved to Israel in 1947.
After the war, Mr. Tory recovered three of the five hidden crates. In the 1980's, he was a witness in the trials of Kovno's former mayor and several Nazi war criminals.
In 1990, an English translation of the diary was published. In 1997, ''Surviving the Holocaust: The Kovno Ghetto Diary'' formed the basis for a two-year exhibit at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. The diary's importance is in its ''relentless details,'' said Sara Bloomfield, director of the museum.
At the exhibit's opening, Mr. Tory said: ''I felt an irresistible compulsion to keep a record of what was happening. Even if some people would survive, nobody would believe what happened to us.''
The diary was also the subject of a documentary film, ''Kovno Ghetto: A Buried History.'' The original documents are housed at Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, a museum dedicated to the Holocaust. A Lithuanian translation was published in 2000.
Avraham Tory was born Avraham Golub in Lazdijai, Lithuania, in 1909. He competed as a gymnast in the first Maccabiah Games in Tel Aviv in 1932, and studied law at the University of Pittsburgh and at the University of Kovno.
In addition to his wife, Mr. Tory is survived by three daughters, also in Israel, Shulamit Karbi, Alina Tory, and Tzila Magdassi, and by 6 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
