About Badana Sharshevski

Could be same person as: Hode Sharshevski

But it is more likely a different person. From: http://toladot.blogspot.com/2011/01/blog-post_7693.html
Regarding Rabbi Dovid Leibowitz:
בתרע"ח נשא לאשה את בת דודו הג"ר חנוך העניך ב"ר יצחק אליעזר ליפמאן שרשבסקי, רבה של העיירה סילצניק, שבזוו"ש היה חתן ר' אהרן הכהן הנ"ל לא ברור לי אם אשת ר' דוד – ואחיו כדלהלן – הן בנותיו של ר' חנוך העניך מאשתו זו, כך שנישאו לבנות דודם, או שנולדו מאשתו הראשונה של רח"ה.

This indicates that R' Henoch was married twice. From the 1913 conscription of Badana's unnamed son, it seems that Badana would be his second wife. (He died in 1915.) This likely means that Badana is the daughter of the Chafetz Chaim's brother Aharon.

However, it is also possible that Badana was the first wife, especially since the unnamed son was born in 1892, which was likely before the other children were born. That would mean she was not present during the 1913 conscription?

From Voronova and Soletchnik Yizkor Book, p401:

"In our times the main Rabbi of Great Soletchnik was Khanokh Sharshevski. He was a scholar and well known in Rabbinical circles, not only because of his virtues but also because he was the son of the Gaon Chofetz Chaim's sister. He didn't have sons, and one of his daughters married David Leibovitsh who took over after his death.

R. David was a "parush" [someone who left his home to study Torah], who migrated from town to town looking for Torah houses until he ended up in Soletchnik, wed, and settled there."
