Victor Dubensky
« on: Saturday 04 April 15 08:36 BST (UK) »
I have some info on Victor and his brother Adolph Abraham (also known as Harry).  I understand that Victor was born in Odessa in 1892 and Adolph abt 1897 or 1890.  Victor went to the UK in 1907. Where can I find out if Victor was born in Odessa, were there any other siblings, what was his parents names and did they remain in Odessa?  Any help or information would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Highly likely the parents records Misha and Hannah Dubensky's records would be in Russian - more resources

Thanks for the info.  Yes, they are the correct Victor and Adolph (Abraham) Dubens.  Thanks for the link to the Russian records.  Not sure that Max is from the same branch of the family.  I believe Victor divorced his wife Rita Phillips and she remarried a Joseph Mulligan in 1951 but I am unable to track down any divorce information.  Where do I start looking?
