According to Grigori Tsygutkin, just before World War II there was one Chervin family remaining in Nadezhnaya (listed as "House #16"):

Conceivably, Avrom-Khaim could be the Avrom known from Sladkovodnaya, but the personal details do not appear to correspond.

We also have an isolated death record for a child, Aron Leizer Chervin son of Yankel (Yakov). Aron died at 5 months and the place of residence is not legible (to us).

There is also an early marriage record in Vilna itself for a Moshka Tzirvin born about 1839, whose father's name was Leizer.
