Aryeh Zemel, probably born in Lublin, Poland, had at least 7 children,
and I was told by some, at least 13. The only ones of which I know are
my great-grandfather Nathan Zemel and his siblings Chunna Zemel, Moshe
Zemel, Rivka Zemel, Menasha Zemel, Yosef Zemel, and Gussy Zemel
Friedman. For additional information on the early Zemel's in the United
States, see the transcript of
Pearl Zemel Bier talking with Sarah Chausmer
Chernin. Also, Charlotte County,
Florida wanted to have a road between the Tammiami Trail and Burnt
Station Road. Abe and Charles Zemel agreed to dedicate the
road for free. This is called
Zemel Road (and there
is also a Zemel Road Landfill (large
pdf)).
Then,Charlotte county condemned part of the property which is now the
Zemel Road Landfill. |

think Louis and Bella Gruber also came from Lublin. The only children I
know of who were theirs include Margaret Gruber Zemel, Hershal Gruber,
Esther Gruber Katz, Sara Gruber Tuck, and Shea Gruber. |

Baer Freund came from Bohemia. He had two children of which I know:
Loebl Freund and Samuel (Schmuel) Freund. My cousin, Andy
Schwartz, is the primary genealogist for the Freund family. Click

Kamzan
|
Gorelick
|
|
Solomon
Kamzan and Ethel Gorelick came to the US from Odessa, Russia. They
changed their last name to Kamzan. The research I've done has shown that
all people with the last name Kamzan are related and are descendants of
Solomon. |
|
|
The
Gorelicks came from Shadrin, Minska Burnia, Russia. Ethel's first
cousins were Sophie Gorelick Turock, Anna Gorelick Weinstein, and Fannie
Gorelick Goldberg. |

David
and Abe Pusar were brothers; and they came from Ikatrinaslav, Russia.
Abe's children were Clara Rose Pusar Topal, Alex Pusar, Max Pusar, Rivka
Pusar, Betty Pusar, and Sarah Pusar. David's children were Morris Pusar,
Rebecca Pusar Brodsky, Clara Pusar Kamzan, Philip Pusar, and Meyer Pusar. |

Serota came from Zashkow, Russia. He was married twice. The first time
he had at least three children - two males and Liba Serota Subotnick.
From the second marriage he had six children, Gittel Serota, Anna Serota
Pusar, George Aaron Serota, Nathan Sirota, Morris Serota, and Ida Serota
Mostov. |

came from Roznow, Poland.
