The list of Jewish Families of Dvinsk in the All Latvia Database of JewishGen shows Benzian Hurwitz as the son of Elia. It says he cam from Preili but resides in Dagavpils and was age 47 in 1876 indicating a birth year of 1829. He may not belong to this family but I have parked him here for now.

In the list of Jewish Families of Dvinsk in the All Latvia Database at JewishGen there is a note next to the record for Eliah Hurwitz that says he is the son of Josel and the Nephew of Leiser. Apparently Josel was dead. I concluded that Josel was the brother of Leiser and entered him into the family record.
