Solomon was the brother of Roza Salman, wife of Zina’s brother, Moses “Mietek” Salamon. Roza and Moses were Klara Samuels’ parents.

Klara said this about Solomon:

"My mother had several brothers and sisters who would become major figures at various points in my life. Her oldest brother, Solomon, fled Europe during World War II and established himself in New York City. Solomon succeeded Isaac as the family patriarch and became quite well off in his own right. In America, he and his wife “big Sonia” owned property in North Carolina as well as New York, and they moved back and forth between the two. Out of harm’s way during the war, Solomon and Sonia would act as the family’s financial safe house and later as my sponsors when I came to America." [God Does Play Dice, p. 18]

 

 

From a book called “G.W.” by Eddie Lunsford, p. 276 :

 

 

Also this, which mentions Solomon owning a house, and having a daughter:

 

I have been told that Roza Salman’s family had a tanning factory in Minsk before the war* and a chicken farm in New Jersey for a while, either before or after North Carolina. Because they owned a factory, they were deemed enemies of the people by the Bolsheviks, and at some point they “escaped” to Nazi-controlled Poland to get away from the communists.

* Klara confirms: “My maternal grandfather, Isaac, originally owned three tanneries in and around Minsk. The family was decidedly assimilated. Only Russian was spoken in the house. My mother spoke no Yiddish. Isaac, of course, lost his real estate holdings during the Russian Revolution, but he was able to escape with a substantial amount of money, first to Germany and then to Poland. When I knew him, he was again a rich man in Vilnius, the present-day Lithuanian capital which was then part of Poland and known as Wilno. There he bought another tannery as well as a wool factory. He also owned property in Warsaw, where my mother and her brother, Abrasha, were established.”
