I am looking to make a tree for my children. I will concentrate on my side of the family for now.
My mother's side. Her maternal side comes from the Riga, Latvia area. There were three children - Miriam, Morris and Irving, not sure of the oldest. They came to America sometime after the Russian war started as my grandmother was a nurse, and then got sick. The two brothers came across a ship to New York and settled in Ohio. Their family name was Skurdalin, but changed to Glazer. My grandmother married a man named Benjamin Spitalsky and his family came from Russia I think. My mother was 8 yrs old when he died. My grandmother's birthdate we think was Sept. 2, 1904. Morris was born May 25, 1903, and Irving was born on August 18, 1906. My grandmother came to America after she was well enough to travel with her mother. I am currently gathering all the information I can from family members. Will edit more when I get more infor.
My father's side came from Hungary. His name was Armand Weiss and was born in Pennsylvania. His father was Samuel Weiss, who was believed to have been born in Hungary. My grandmother's name is Betty Best and she had a brother Jess Best who was married to Dorothy (Dot) Best. Again that's all I have for now.. Please help me if you can.
