Update details for the couple living in Brooklyn
Aaron + Fanny SCHWARTZ given by
Hi. The guy with the DNA connection here:
Part of the issue we're facing is that Nellie/Naomi had a bunch of siblings, all with very common names, some were anglicized from their Hebrew/Yiddish names, others were just chosen arbitrarily.
Fannie's mother:
Chaya Rivka ________ (never immigrated)
Father unknown (never immigrated). Right now we've got Friedman as the missing surname
Naomi's Parents:
Aaron Schwartz (entered via NYC)
Fannie ________ (entered via NYC)
Naomi (b 1901) (entered via NYC ~1904-1908)
Naomi * Nellie was among the oldest children and came here as a toddler.
Jean
Anne
Mo
Morris
Eppie
William
Sophie
Nita (confirmed youngest b USA 1909)
Those are the official siblings, names were given from Naomi's daughter (still living). From what I can tell from this conversation, there is a strong possibility we've combined two families who adopted strikingly similar names.
