      <image:caption>There I am, Sharon Mark, and, as in Arnee’s yearbook, someone mistakenly signed by my picture…not as bad as Arnee’s when the person wrote all over Arnee’s picture. I don’t know who Lucy was but I like what she wrote about me. Below me is Pat, and as she says, I have never forgotten who introduced me to Arnee. We met at a party at Pat’s house the summer after 10th grade when Arnee had just graduated high school.</image:caption>

Each of the 55 exquisite custom pieces is numbered and engraved, like a work of art. In 1921, Gabrielle Chanel asked Ernest Beaux to develop a “woman’s perfume, with a woman’s scent.” The perfumer presented her with a visionary expression that made unprecedented use of aldehydes. Mademoiselle chose the fifth sample and decided to call it simply N°5. Its singular composition, along with the austerity of the name and bottle, revolutionized the history of fragrance and has gone on to achieve cult status. COMPOSITION N°5 Parfum is the quintessence of femininity, an abstract expression that reveals a floral-aldehydic bouquet. Top notes of neroli from Grasse blend into the sensual notes of 2 exceptional raw materials: May rose and Grasse jasmine. Aldehydes provide airy freshness. ART OF PERFUMING Parfum is the most concentrated and long-lasting interpretation of fragrance, with its own specific application. Mademoiselle’s advice was to apply it “wherever you would like to be kissed.” Neck, wrist, décolleté… Using the included applicator, add a drop of Parfum on each pulse point, letting it develop on your skin and feeling the scent echo the beat of your heart.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Leon’s uncle, David Schneider, in his high school yearbook February 1, 1905 - April 28, 1972 The writing printed under David Schneider’s high school picture gave me another clue. It says that he was in Plainfield High School only for his senior year; before that, he attended school in Westfield. Therefore, if his elder sisters Eleanor “Lena” or Sarah “Shirley” graduated high school, it was before they moved from Westfield to Plainfield. Westfield yearbooks, unfortunately, are not yet available online. There is still hope of someday finding photographs of those two cousins (Don’t forget to look at the photos at the bottom of this blog post).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Just one more from my memory book for now. Laura, Lindsay’s older sister, is from the next generation in our Friedman family, and since their twins were infants they are always with Laura and Gerald at the reunions. We adore the precocious little ones and love watching them grow. It feels so rewarding to keep all our extended family members abreast of the family tree, especially those from the “next” generation and beyond.

      <image:caption>Almost like a miracle, this photo of the scene at Penn Station in Newark from 1911, the year my father and his cousin Morris Klein were born, showed up on Facebook on July 10, 2023. Morris was born in Newark, and my father, born in Chudnov, Ukraine, settled with his family in Newark in 1912. My father remembered seeing Joe Klein off at Penn Station in Newark when the cousins moved to California in the early 1920s.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Letters to “niece” Sheindl…actually meant as “cousin” Sheindl. The first letter tells the gloomy news of Chudnov and in the letter date August 5, 1935, another cousin in Chudnov is bidding Sheindl greetings on the birth of their grandchild as the blessing still exists at the naming of a new baby for the parents and grandparents to live to lead the child to the wedding canopy (Chuppa). The letter tells that Manya was born later than we thought, probably 1935. Translated by Harry Langsam, z”l.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>English translations by Harry Langsam, z”l, of two letters addressed to my grandparents from my grandmother’s sister Rachel Leah whose first husband was their stepbrother Abraham Shapiro. She notes on bottom of the top letter that their stepbrother Meyer Shapiro is married with two children and their stepsister, Esther Chana Shapiro, is married. Note that Meyer married in 1917 and his first two of three children were born in 1918 and 1922. His daughter Dunya was born in 1926. Esther Chana Shapiro married abt. 1919 and, she, too, had three children. Her youngest was Etya (“Nyusya”). Photos of Meyer and Esther Chana Shapiro and their families appear in my upcoming Tuesday blog post, My Grandmother’s Stepsiblings in Photos, dated August 2, 2022.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The time came that this file had to be examined and posted because no one in future generations will know the “players” and the importance to our heritage. For example, the letter is signed by Jennie, Bennie and family. That’s Jennie Mark Seligsohn, daughter of my Granduncle Louis Mark. After they all emigrated from Chudnov, Ukraine, Granduncle Louis lived with his wife and four daughters in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In the letter, Jennie speaks of Edith. I realize she is speaking about her niece, the eldest of four daughters of Jennie’s sister Esther. When she speaks of David entering the navy, that’s my first cousin, my Uncle Morris’s son. She also mentions my Uncle Morris, my father’s older brother, and Harry, a younger brother of my father, who apparently was not feeling well when their cousin Jennie wrote the letter.</image:caption>

We have no pictures of Sheindl - She was married twice. Her second husband was her 1st cousin Aaron Roitman. She had one son from her first marriage and two with Aaron. One of the two sons from Aaron survived the war with his wife and son. His son became a medical doctor in Leningrad.

I think I’ll play a counting game with my grandchildren as I tell them stories of their ancestry and most beloved ancestors, along with working on keeping them from trying to open the refrigerator/freezer doors.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Thank you to my cousin Shari for sending this one from the early 1950s. My mother is on the left (with apron) and our Aunt Fannie is holding the dish on the table. It appears to be a full apron my mother is donning with a pocket for her tissue. I’m still looking for one with her more uniform half apron. My recollection is that she did not like full aprons.</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - WHAT DO PEOPLE TALK ABOUT?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Simply based on his height listed on his military records, I’m giving an educated guess that Sam Pollack (Zayda’s firstborn) is the man in the center standing between his brother Dovid on the left and brother-in-law Abe Gordon on the right. Pictured sitting in front are Zayda (Morris Pollack) and his third wife (my husband’s maternal grandmother) Jennie Bloom Pollack. Their daughter Ruth Pollack Gordon Schneider Tunkel is seated on right with her children Herbie and Adley Gordon (Joyce was not yet born). I received this treasured photo from Joyce’s son Jack, which he found among the photos left by his mother and grandmother. Sam and Dovid were Zayda’s sons, born in Eastern Europe, one from each of Zayda’s two prior wives). The photograph was taken in Linden, New Jersey circa 1927. Jennie’s grandson from her prior marriage, born in 1933, confirmed the identities of his grandmother, her second husband, and the others in the picture.</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - YOU LOST ME AT BARRY GREEN</image:title>
      <image:caption>Since my paternal grandparents Nathan and Sarah were first cousins to one another, they were both first cousins to Barry’s grandmother Sheindl. Nathan, Fruma, Sheindl and Sarah’s parents were all siblings. Since my grandfather Nathan and Esther’s grandmother Fruma were siblings, Esther and I are second cousins. Since Barry’s great-grandmother Rose and Esther’s and my great-grandmother Rachel Leah were siblings, Barry was a third cousin to Esther and me. Here’s where it gets really confusing. My great-grandfather Yehuda Hersh was also a sibling of Rose and Rachel Leah, making me doubly related to Esther and Barry, z”l.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I attribute my love for needlework to my girl scout leader-Ila’s mother. Here, the personalized runner I crafterd in grammar school, circa 1964, is draped with my green knee socks from my girl scout uniform, which was purchased at Levy’s Department Store in Elizabeth, New Jersey. I wonder if any of my sister girl scouts remember learning to do the needlework, finished their runner, kept it, and know where it is.</image:caption>

At our home, on the day of Rina and Eric’s engagement party, Rabbi Fishman conducts mincha (afternoon prayers) yahrzeit (an anniversary that commemorates a death according to the Jewish date) services in memory of my mother with my brothers Nate, Al and Stu, Rina (next to Eric), Eric, Arnee, and me gathered around with other family and friends. He then spoke lovingly about Rina’s four grandparents, whom he knew, and gave Rina and Eric a beautiful entrée into the day of the marriage ceremony.</image:caption>
