Biography[edit]
Sarah was born in around 1875 in or near Vilna, Lithuania, as Soreh-Hodess Muttele HaCohen. [6] It is speculated that Sarah's mother died, and that Sarah's father married Reuben Rabinovich's mother, Esther Schulman, making Sarah and Reuben step-siblings[7]. Some family stories suggest that Sarah and Reuben were forced to marry, even though Sarah had a boyfriend at the time. Sarah was extremely unhappy about this. After raising eight kids together, Sarah and Reuben separated. Sarah's two daughters (Rose and Esther, neither of whom ever married) took Sarah to Washington, D.C., with them when they went there to find work. (Esther became extremely paranoid and had many cats.)[8]
Immigration[edit]
Sarah immigrated to the US in April 1906, along with children Nissen (Nathan)and Roche (Rose). They came aboard the Blücher, which departed Hamburg on April 5 and arrived at Ellis Island twelve days later, on April 17.[9][10] Their names are listed as Rabinoiwicz,Nossen (age 3), Rabinowicz,Roche (age 1), and Rabinowicz,Sore (age 28). The Ellis Island version of their ship's manifest lists their contact as "Reuben Rabinovich" and seems to list (barely legible) "Peoria, IL" as a destination.[11] (Myrna Neims remembers possibly hearing something about Peoria. Based on the 1910 census, however, we know that Sarah and Reuben were in Chicago by then.)
