Daughter of 'Frank' and Rose (Schrier) Druch, she was born in Poninka, a town in the Polonne Raion of the Khmelnytskyi Oblast of western Ukraine which, at the time, was controlled by Russia.
Under her birth name of Sura Druch, she sailed alone from Hamburg, Germany aboard the S.S. President Grant, arriving in New York harbor on 16 Jul 1911. Single, she listed her occupation as a seamstress.
On 10 Jun 1914 at Boston, she married fellow Russian immigrant Leizer Fainer, a.k.a. Louis Faneuil. Sura also anglicized her name to Sara (also Sarah).
They lived in the greater Boston area, and were the parents of two sons: Benjamin and Phillip F. Faneuil.
Sarah served as a member of the board of the Women's Auxiliary of the Polona Progressive Association.
Sara's passenger lists (departing Hamburg and arriving in the U.S.) and her petition for naturalization provide the identical information for her date and place of birth, and match the birth data her husband gave for her on his 1943 Petition for Naturalization.
