Historical Records

  • Lena (age 10), parents Mandle (age 35) and Esther (age 34) and siblings Julius (age 9), Marry (age 5), and Rosie (age 3) and unknown Sam Farbovesky (age 59) in Chicago, Illinois in the 1900 Federal Census. The family came from either Russia or Poland in 1899. The parents were married in 1886. Unsure who Sam is -- possibly Esther's father? Mandle is a day laborer, and Lena and Julius are in school.
