When I visited the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C., I found myself very taken with Zivia Lubetkin's name. However, I'm having some trouble finding information on Zivia's origins--can anyone help?Thanks. :)Array

Interesting. There's nothing next to meaning, however--is the implication that the meaning's unknown? Could you tell me what your source is?Thanks. :)Array
