Jewish Gen’s Lithuania Tax and Voters List database provides information on the Grin family of Skuodas dating back to the 1840s; among those listed is one Sroel, son of Leyb, who was 53 years old in 1913, at which time he worked as a carrier, lived on Mosyadskaya Street, and had 20 rubles in a postal savings account. He may perhaps be the Yisroel Grin listed in Shaf-Brener.
According to JewishGen’s Lithuania Marriages database, Sroel and Feige Grin, of Skuodas, had a son, Mendel, who married Chana Sore Grin (from Kretinga – a cousin?) in 1923. Mendel was born in 1895 and was a merchant. According to the Lithuania Deaths database, Feige Grin (daughter of Mendel and Hinde Sabel) died in 1926, age 65, of a “heart stroke.”
As of September 2013, Yad Vashem has no information on any Grins from Skuodas
