• Notes

  Married: According to Arnold Lipkind, Annie's (Chave's) grandson, the family was originally from "European Russia" and were uprooted and relocated to the Sea of Azov (in the Ukraine) when she was a girl. Louis (Herschal) states on his WWI draft registration that he was born in Berdyansk. It sounds like in the late 1880's they may have been relocated from Lithuania to the Ukraine when Russia was establishing the "agricultural colonies" in that area. Also, some the Lifschitz children married Lithuanian Jews. (note: transcriptions from Ellis Island passenger records are full of errors on names and locations. The "last residence" for the records below is present day Berdyansk, Ukraine, on the Sea of Azov) Ellis Island Passenger Records 17 Mar 1902, ship Phoenicia from Hamburg, page 257, manifest line 20 Lifschitz, Berko M 43y M Russian Hebrew Berdjanck Lifschitz, Tobe F 19y S Russian Hebrew Berdjanck Lifschitz, Chave F 17y S Russian Hebrew Berdjanck Berko's occupation Tailor passage paid by brother - (looks like) Lisset (Lumel) Lifschitz 7 Cottage St, Bayonne, NJ Ellis Island Passenger Records 2 Aug 1902, ship Vaderland from Antwerp, page 567, manifest line 16 Lifschitz, Merke F 45 M Russian Hebr Jarg Berzionsky Lifschitz, Herschal M 10 S Russian Hebr Jarg Berzionsky Lifschitz, Lea F 8 S Russian Hebr Jarg Berzionsky Lifschitz, Sara F 6 S Russian Hebr Jarg Berzionsky Lifschitz, Rosebke F 3 S Russian Hebr Jarg Berzionsky Lifschitz, Moische M 11m S Russian Hebr Jarg Berzionsky Merke had $25 passage paid by husband/father - Berl Lifschitz 489 Avenue C, Bayonne, NJ pictures of the Vaderland http://www.simplonpc.co.uk/RedStar.html#anchor369454 1910 US Census, Bayonne, Hudson Co., NJ - 28 Apr 1920 Street - Broadway Barnett Lipshitz, Head, 50, married 30 years, Tailor, owns shop Mary Lipshitz, wife, 50, married 30 years Louis Lipshitz, son, 20, no occupation Eva Lipshitz, daughter, 16, operator in waist factory Sarah Lipshitz, daughter, 14 Rosie Lipshitz, daughter, 12 Morris Lipshitz, son, 10 lived in same house on Broadway with Harry and Annie Lipkind (Annie was Barnett and Mary Lifschitz' daughter) 1920 US Census, 4th Ward, Bayonne, Hudson Co., NJ - 21 Jan 1920 Mary Lipshitz, widow, 62, immigrated 1903, Russia / Jewish, Alien, can't read/write or speak English, no occupation Eva Lipshitz, daughter, single, 25, immigrated 1903, Russia / Jewish, Naturalized, can read/write and speak English, dressmaker in sewing factory Rosa Lipshitz, daughter, single, 22, immigrated 1903, Russia / Jewish, Naturalized, can read/write and speak English, bookkeeper in a store Mauris Lipshitz, son, single, 19, immigrated 1903, Russia / Jewish, Alien, can read/write and speak English, no occupation
