  The 1940 Vilna refugee list has, at entry 1183, Abram Epsztein, born 1906 at Bakszty, who came from Bakszty; the surname on the list is Epsztein, not Stein; the town, Bakszty, agrees with what the archive already holds for this line, but the year, 1906, is five years from the register's compiled age, and the name Abram Stein occurs more than once on the register, so the archive shows the entry as a lead, not as an identification.
