Hana Shaf-Brener, based upon material found in Yad Vashem, records that Simcha Gin, 38, son of Shmule Yitzak and Tsirl, was married to Rachel (nee Palevi), born in 1909 to Abba and Simcha. The couple’s children were Arye (1928), Reizl (1926), Moshe (1924), and Sarah (1922).

As of May 2014, Jewish Gen provides no listings for a Gin family in Skuodas, though I was able to find listings in other towns (notably Raseiniai). The family may have moved to Shkud immediately preceding the war.

Yad Vashem provides the following information on the Gin family.

NOTE: The actual Yad Vashem Pages of Testimony read “Skaudvil,” NOT “Skuodas.” There are additional Yad Vashem listings for the individuals above under Skaudvil. It is possible the Gin family did not live in Skuodas at all.
