THE MIDNIGHT MARRIAGE: Why is Reb Leib Saras named after his mother, Sara?

The Zlatcha, Polish noblemen, entrusted the Jews with many of their industries, including the very profitable liquor industry and innkeeping. The Jew was recognized as responsible and trustworthy while loathed for their religious observance.
