I am looking for relatives.
Hi there.My father's name is Bradley Teitelbaum, and my grandfather's name (his dad) is Herbert Teitelbaum.Herbert was born in Florida in 1918 but came to New York sometime after that (I think this is right).My father was born to Herbert and his wife (Maiden name Robinson I believe) in New York.My father's mother passed away and my grandfather remarried Lucia Hellmich, who has also since passed away.I know my grandfather had a cousin who died after the battle of the Bulge during WWII.Grandpa also fought in WWII but he made it home.He spent a great amount of time on a submarine.
The only other thing I know about my family sounds like folk-lore.My great-grandfather (dad's dad's dad) was the youngest child and they lived in Poland (I think) when he was young.His father was a rabbi and my great-grandfather burned downed the synogogue when he was about 5 or 6, possibly for attention.He was put on a boat to be a cabin boy and somehow made it to New York where he stayed and settled.
