Re: Levys of New York, Late 1800's

Some of your information is close to matching mine. My grandfather, Benoit Levy (called Ben), had an uncle named Bernard (also called Ben Levy, born c 1839 in Strasbourg) who came to New York 1860 or so.He first emigrated to Brazil and then to New York City. He had a daughter named Cecelia and other children: George, Rose, Alfred, Clarence and Florence (only one known to have had children -- married a man named Fisher).His brother was Aaron Levy (Andre Pierre Levy, born 1842) who ended up in Archbold, Ohio.They came from Niedersept or Seppois-le-bas in Alsace, France.My grandfather's half sister was Celine Levy, another was Alice Levy (married a Blog).Their father Emmanuel Levy moved to Switzerland.Another son Abraham Armand Levy is a mystery not yet solved.I have most of what I know posted at:http://www.msu.edu/user/pfaffhttp://www.msu.edu/user/pfaff
then follow links to genealogy and Levy information.I would be glad to exchange further information with you.
