6/20/2021 6:17 PM 1. Does anyone else have this photo?
2. I know that the woman at the piano is Brunia Fraden. I think that the lady just to the right of center might be Sarah Block. The bearded gentleman might be a Mr. Greenberg, he may have been a 2nd husband of Sarah Block, and the young men might be his children. The lady top center might be Sarah Block's daughter, Manya.

6/20/2021 6:12 PM This is page 2 of the letter which I believe is from Mina Auerbach to her sister Clara, possibly about arrangements for a visit in Berlin. Thank you for help with the translation.

94142 Translation - Tombstone

6/16/2021 1:17 PM This tombstone is in the Gemelis Chesed Burial Society at Mount Zion Cemetery in Maspeth, Queens. I am particularly interested in the name lines (2 lines) and the date of death although if someone is able to translate the entire inscription, I would appreciate it.

Language is Hebrew. 		View the post with its 1 response

94146 Translation - Tombstone

6/16/2021 1:17 PM Hi,
Mollie arrived as "Mariasche" on the ship manifest. It appears that her Hebrew name on the stone is a form of that. Can you please advise on the "correct", or most typical English version of that name. Mariasche, Mariasch, Mariash, or something else?
Thanks! 		View the post with its 3 responses

6/16/2021 1:16 PM I'd like to glean any information from these visa stamps and notes as I can. This is a page from my great-grandfather Henry Jaffe's US passport. I only just noticed Polish visa stamps. I knew he'd visited Mandate Palestine in 1924, after my ggm died in 1923. The passport has visa stamps from Palestine in 1924 and I have passenger records for him sailing from Jaffa in Aug 1924. And records of him remarrying in Philadelphia in 1925. But I have no information of a visit to Poland. Any help will be appreciated. View the post with its 3 responses
