| 1606 | Though it's not known when Rosa was born, her younger child, Faiga, was born about 1880, according to the 1940 federal census. Her son, Abraham, was born sometime between 1857 and 1870, depending on which document he filled out. So a guess of 1840 for their mother's birth seems possible. | UNKNOWN, Rosa (I730)

| 1616 | Tom and Edna had a difficult marriage, and difficulty obtaining a divorce. The requirements for divorce in NY in the early 20s required evidence of infidelity, including witnesses. Their divorce process ran into trouble when the court appointed referee did not initially think there were sufficient grounds. After another two months of wrangling, the court granted a divorce. | Family: TRAPNELL, Major Thomas Tidball / VALENTINE, Edna Sarah (F63)

| 1617 | Too much to tell. Read the books! Also: He arrived in the U.S. with his parents and younger sister, Marcia, in Feb. 1923 when he was about 3 years old. The USS Baltic departed from Liverpool and landed at Ellis Island. Although his father's written recollections say they arrived on Feb 3 and were allowed to leave the ship on Feb 7, the records from ellisisland.org, which has the original ship's manifest, say they arrived on Feb. 13, 1923. The manifest of the Baltic (arriving from Liverpool) lists the family as follows: Juda, Hana Rochel, Aisik & Manis Asimy. It says they are from Petrowitschi. https://tinyurl.com/35tsy2sn (Baltic’s passenger list) Arrived on Feb. 3, 1923, and, according to Judah’s written memories, it took them four days to get off the ship. They entered NY on Feb. 7, 1923. (I am writing this on Feb. 7, 2023. (!) ) Here's a bit about the ship: BALTIC 1903 The BALTIC was a 23,876 gross ton ship built in 1903 by Harland & Wolff, Belfast for the White Star Line. Her details were - length 709.2ft x beam 75.6ft, two funnels, four masts, twin screw and a speed of 17 knots. There was accommodation for 425-1st, 450-2nd and 2,000-3rd class passengers. Launched on 21st Nov.1903, she sailed from Liverpool on her maiden voyage to New York on 29th Jun.1904. In 1909 she rescued survivors of the collision between the REPUBLIC and the FLORIDA off the US coast, in which the REPUBLIC sank. On 12th Dec.1918 she commenced her first voyage after the Armistice, from Liverpool to New York and in 1927 her accommodation was altered to carry 393-cabin class, 339-tourist class and 1,150-3rd class passengers. On 17th Sep.1932 she commenced her last voyage from Liverpool to New York and Liverpool and on 17th Feb.1933 sailed for Osaka, Japan where she was scrapped.

| 1620 | Translation of memory of Sofia Katz, written in Russian by Serafima Asimova to Julia Svetlova, via Facebook: Yulia, I remember your mom well times of this photo. Blonde with pepel?nymi curly hair, braided in 2 Braids, daring and independent, student of the mathematical office of the pedagogical institute. My Dad and uncle have always been enthusiastic about her. Our Sunshine Sofia Katz. A legend who has been told at home many times. A certain professor in the exam called a student Sofia Katz asked her some kind of arch difficult question. And silently began to prescribe the board Uh, where do you jump, sign up in detail... unquestioningly son?ka became a sign in detail. The trade unionists got tired and went to lunch... the new professor came and said, uh, that it's you so trash, older... the tasks were changed by one other, the professors changed each other. In 4 hours she was collectively put 5. Sometimes on Sunday, Sonya, leaving her dorm at eswl, came to us, usually on Sunday. Summer. Me, mom and dad going to will. I'm excited, I'll show son?ke a river where dragonflies, butterflies and tadpoles. Mom is raising a mat, sandwiches. Son?ka, waving at the cats, says that she has very interesting tasks and she will find a desert place and home will come by herself. I found you, Julia, mom, dad, candle, when being a fashion engineer, came to Moscow. I rode often, balashikha became my home for the time of business trip. I called gee gee, and she was an artist. His mathematical talent without hesitation changed to the talent of mom and wife. Light Memory...

| 1625 | Twins with sister Barbara. Grew up in Mt. Vernon, NY. From NYT obit: Martin founded Electronics for Medicine in 1950. As its president and research director, he developed many sophisticated instruments. They included the first cardiac monitor for operations, a recovery-room patient monitor that was the precursor of today's intensive care equipment and a physiological recourding system used in Nobel-Prize-winning work in cardiac catheterization. He wrote and lectured on medical uses of electronics and received an honorary doctorate from NY Medical College. His company, in Pleasantville, grew to 700 employees. When Honeywell Inc. bought it in 1979, he shared more than $1 million of his profit with the workers. In his retirement, he combined his interests in technology, scuba diving and travel to develop devices for underwater photography and took pictures to illustrate children's books written by his wife, Ann McGovern. He graduated from Columbia Uniersity. A service to celebrate his life was held on Feb. 22, 1992 at the Community Unitarian Church, White Plains. Donations in his name made to WESPAC. | SCHEINER, Martin L. (I784)

| 1630 | Unnamed infant Titus becaem a huge scandal in Glen Cove and beyond. Conflicting accounts between the mother, grandmother, husband and multiple doctors over circumstances surrounding the birth of the child and his death within a few hours, with attending physician claiming strangulation and grandmother claiming death by natural causes. Further salcious accounts in the New York World implied the mother, Mary Coles, carried on with a number of ‘fast’ men, and that her marriage to Jacob Titus was not fully legitimate/above-board. Over the course of two weeks, an inquest presented some damning testimony by doctors and the coroner, but the fact there was conflicting statements ultimately led the jury to quietly sweep the matter under the rug. This letter to the editor from the Brooklyn Daily Times, 18 Jun 1888, attempts to put the matter to rest: The Titus Case. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Times: June 18, 1888. SIR: We regret that your correspondent from Glen Cove is disposed to keep alive the unfortunate and unpleasant affair of the Titus baby, notwithstanding the result of the Coroner's inquest and the investigation before the Grand Jury. In last Thursday's TIMES we are told that "this really decides nothing," when every one else supposed that after an entirely disinterested jury had been unable to find evidence sufficient to warrant them to bring in an indictment, the very least that could be said is " not proven." We read further that the "community at large" take very little stock in the testimony of the three physiciana that the child died of apoplexy, since Drs. Watson and Hall found such not to be the case," and are promised "an interview with one of these gentlemen next week which will prove very interesting." The fact is, the " community at large " cares very little about the opinions of the physicians who testified in the case. The affair has been legally investigated by both the Coroner and the Grand Jury. There has been no opposition on the part of any one to the closest scrutiny, and the better part of the community are satisfied, and here the whole matter should end. It was the height of cruelty to make so grave a charge as child murder, at the outset, before the investigation; and it is an outrage on those most interested, as well as an unjust and needless infliction upon the community, to keep alive these suspicions. In all cases where there is a disagreement of authorities or a reasonable doubt of guilt, it is always the proper thing to give the benefit of the doubt to the suspected parties, aud it shows an unkind and uncharitable spirit to continue to harrow the feelings of the families and friends of the parties implicated in this matter by these insinuations. It has been a sad affair all through, and instead of keeping it before the public any longer by "interviews" and attempts to justify the unsubstantial charge of infanticide, the less said about it and the sooner It is forgotten the better. The publicity which has been given to this affair through the newspapers has already had a widely demoralizing effect upon our young people and that there way be no more of it is the sincere wish of ONE OF MANY. June 18, 1888 | TITUS, Unnamed (I5652)

| 1631 | Up to now, I have not mentioned anything about Mamma’s Mother [Tamara] because I cannot say much about her. She was like any other Jewish woman of that time. She was not educated because Jewish education was for men. But she had one qualification – she was very smart. In town, if they wanted to compare some women in cleverness, they used to have two sayings. “She is another Tamara.” Or, “Would you like her to be another Tamara?” I think this is proof enough that Mamma’s mother was a clever woman. She was, under the circumstances, then quite comfortable. | UNKNOWN, Tamara (I21)

| 1641 | W. R. RUE, farmer; P. O. Enon. Mr. Rue is the son of John and Sarah Rue. His father was a native of Maryland, and his mother of Pennsylvania; they removed to Cincinnati in 1798, removing to Greene Co. in 1807. The subject of this sketch was born Feb. 8, 1815, in Mad River Township, and was of great assistance to his father in clearing up his farm which was among the first improvements in this vicinity. Mr. Rue remembers distinctly when the Indians were roving around in. bands numbering from five to five hundred. He has many relics of the Indians, including a fine pipe and two of the largest earrings ever found, one of which he found on his farm and the other near the county house. These relics were exhibited at the Clark-Shawnee Cen-tennial, and was a great attraction. Mr. Rue married, in 1840, to Miss Lois Forsythe of Virginia. He purchased the old homestead in 1865, living on it several years, and then selling it and buying the farm on which he now resides, containing 81 1/4 acres. Mr. Rue attended general muster for about fifteen years, and from the age of 21 to 55 never failed to work the roads. He saw the Mormons when on their way from Cort-land, N. Y., to Nauvoo, Ill., several of whom worked a few days for his father. The family consists of four children - three sons and a daughter. | RUE, William R. (I1262)

| 1658 | When he arrived in the United States -- through Castle Garden, not Ellis Island, he told his grandson, Pete Scheiner -- he recalled walking across a bridge into Manhattan "and didn't know what the hell he was doing." In the 1940s, Abraham wrote his memories of meeting his wife, Fannie Orel (Little Bubbe). He also published a series of paperback pamphlets called "Hodge Podge," filled with useful advice, like Poor Richard's Almanac. He was an inventor, an artist, and electrical engineer. He worked with Thomas Edison, who is said to have given Abraham a gold watch when he retired (although Edison, born in 1847, was older). Abraham invented a car battery. In addition to painting, Abraham carved beautiful walking sticks, the best of which were stolen from the nursing home where is son, Louis, lived in the late 1970s. His granddaughter, Ruth Sheinaus Asimov, said that when Abraham arrived in the US, "he opened a little art store doing portraits...eventually he sent for his family. I don't know the chronology, but eventually, I know he gave up the art store and worked on electic automobiles in Hartford, where my father went to elementary school. (Either the "Brown School" on Darling street, or the "Darling School" on Brown St.) Abraham's collaborator was Mr. Landau," after whom a style of car was named. Also from Ruth: "They also lived in Elizabeth, NJ, where Lizzie was born, and Washington Heights where Rosie was born. (Liz was the youngest.) Abraham worked for the Edison company, had met Thomas Edison on a number of occasions, and became foreman of the battery department. He invented some kind of storage battery that they used there. When he retired, he got either a gold medal or a gold watch, neither of which are around." "After he retired, he and his wife, Fannie took a trip back to Kishinev. (1936) They traveled to Europe on the Ile de France, via Rome. I still have the bracelet they brought me from Rome." Where did the name Sheinaus come from? Ruth says that Abraham made it up. He was originally "Schinder," and changed his name apparently to avoid being conscripted into the Russian Army. By taking the name Sheinaus, he could pretend to be a family's only son, and the Russian Army was thought not to take only sons. CENSUS ADDRESSES: 1920: 481 Van Buren St. Brooklyn.

| 1670 | William and Mary were married about 1790. Six of their children were born in the Pendelton district, and they moved to Caldwell county, KY, about 1803, where they had six children. In the fall of 1817, they moved to Illinois, first stopping on Wood river, about two miles from Alton, in Madison county. Their destination was the San-ga-ma country, but it was more economical to remain idle that winter than to move up, and thus incur the necessity of hauling provisions for themselves and stock. Early in 1818 William Drennan, his half brother, Joseph Drennan, his son-in-law, Joseph Dodds, and George Cox, left their families near Alton, and, with their teams, farming implements, provisions, and all the young men and boys belonging to the families who were able to assist in making a home, started, piloted by a white man named William Moore, who had belonged to a company that had been over the country before, in fighting the Indians. He was called an Indian Ranger. Arriving at Sugar creek, they took a day or two for exploring, and on March 10, 1818, drove to the spot on which William Drennan built his cabin and which proved to be section 32, town 14, range 5 west, when the government made its survey. It is on the northwest side of Sugar creek, and about twelve miles nearly due south of Springfield, and near where the Sugar creek Cumberland Presbyterian church now stands. Immediately after their arrival they built two cabins. One was occupied by George Cox alone. The other was occupied for the summer by William and Joseph Drennan and Joseph Dodds. That was the one spoken of as belonging to William Drennan. As they had not the slightest idea of cultivating the prairie, these three men agreeed to clear all the land they could in one body, and have a crop from it that year in common, with the understanding that before another year they were all to work together until an equal sized piece was cleared for the other two. They cleared the timber from about fifteen acres, fenced it, plowed as well as they could among the roots and stumps with a little short wooden mouldbourd plow, and planted it in corn and pumpkins. The soil in the timber was very light -- so much so that in some places they would almost sink in over their shoes. In frencing this land, they inclosed about three-fourths of an acre of prairie. After they had plowed and planted their crop, one of the men suggested that it was quite a waste to have that under fence and nothing growing on it, and proposed that they break it up and plan something on it. IN order to make sure work, they uncoupled one of their wagons, hitched four horses to the forward wheels, and fastened their wooden mould board plow to the axle. They soon found this was a failure. Try as they would, the plow would not center the sod, and they reluctantly gave it up. While they were taking off the team and plow, one of the boys, full of fun and mischief, took up a hoe and began to shave the grass off, saying he could break the prairie with his hoe. That suggested an idea to one of the men, and he, also, took a hoe and began shaving the grass. It was the work of but a few minutes to remove the sod from a spot several feet in diameter. He then called one of the othermen, and proposed that, as they were well advanced with their work, and there were seven or eight of them, and all had hoes, that they call all ahands together , and shave the grass from the whole piece, plant something on it, and see what would be the result. The man spoken to first, laughted at the idea as ridiculous, but after studying a moment, he fell in with it, and the men and boys were all called up, and the grass shaved off, holes dug, and corn and pumpkin seed planted. They did not tought it any more; that killed the grass. The crop was fully twice as much in proportion to the area, as that planted among the stumps, and the next spring it broke up the nicest of any land they had ever seen. This taught them an important lesson, and caused them to make greater exertions to induce some one to invent a plow that would break up the prairie. I have this account from the venerable William Drennan, who was one of the young men that assisted in doing the work, and who has lived in sight of the spot to the present time. Several years elapsed before a plow was invented that would do good work at breaking. IN the mean time the early settlers continued clearing their land, that they might have it to cultivate, and were always uneasy for fear their timber would be exhausted. There can be but little doubt that the same labor required to destroy the timber on one acre would have shaved the grass from two acres, with no better implements than a hoe. They could, by that means, have had better land to cultivate, twice the quantity of grain raised, and saved their timber, but the probability is they never thought of it. After the provisions they brought with them were exhausted, one fo their number would return south, load a couple of horses with provisions, salt, and other indispensibles, in regular pack saddle style, and bring them to their new home. The distance was between sixty and seventy miles. They brought cows in the spring, and had plenty of milk. Wild honey was abundant, and Mr. Drennan told the writer that two of their number would cut down a hollow tree where bees had stored their wealth, and with a few hours work, would bring in from two to five gallons of honey. While they were doing this, others of their number would be looking for more bee trees, so that they always had four or five trees ahead, and knew just where to go when they needed more honey. For meat, they would hunt as the necessitieis required, some times one, and often all would hunt. IN warm weather they would take venison, the breast of turkeys and geese, cut the meat into thin slices, sprinkle a small quantity of salt on it, and dry it on a frame work of sticks about three feet hight, setting the frame in the sun, with a smouldering fire underneath. In this way the meat would soon be cured, and ready for use at any time. This they called jerked meat, a considerable supply of which could be kept on hand. Fresh meat, jerked meat, milk, honey and bread, constituted their bill of fare during the first summer. As trips were made back and forth, some fo the younger sons and those who had families were brought to the new settlements. After the crops were cultivated, the men who had families returned to them, leaving the unmarried men and boys to take care of the property. The four men who came up in the spring, all brought their wives and childern in the fall of that year. Mr. Cox arrived first, Joseph Drennan next, and, William Drennan, with his son-in-law, Josephy Dodds, came together, arriving Dec. 3, 1818. Of the twelve childeren of William Drennan, Sen.--- Mattie, born in South Carolina, married in Kentucky Samuel William, born Oct 15, 1797, in Pendleton district, SC, came to Kentucky, and from there to Sangamon county with his father, arriving March 10, 1818 in what is now Ball township. He was married May 30, 1822, in Sanagamon county to Margaret Anderson. They had twelve childern, all born in Sanagmon county, viz: James A., born AUg 6, 1828, married Dec 8, 1853, to Rachel Cannan. They have six children, Jannetta F, Mary E, Robert W, Minnie W, Ira and Frederick, and reside in Ball township, five miles northeast of Auburn. Samuel, born Oct. 30, 1829, went to the Pacific coasat in 1852, and was married there May 28,1868 to Lousia Fernald, who was born April 4, 1839 in North Berwick, Maine. They have three children, Edith A., Mabel L, and Dora A, and reside in Santa Cruz county, Ca. John T, born Jan 14, 1832, enlisted August 9, 1862 at Chatham, in Co. I, 73d Ill INf, for theree years. He was wounded at the battle of Chickamauga, Sept 20, 1863, lay five days on the battlefied, before medical aid was given. He recovered, but is permanently disabled. He was dischard on account of physical disability, June 16, 1864, and resides with his parents in Ball Township...

| 1700 | Yiddish name was Frima. Her grandchildren called her Little Bubbie. Two different ages for Fannie appear on her death certificate: 79 and 81. Of course, this was filled out by husband Abraham Sheinaus, who has since proven how little appreciation he had for consistent and realistic dates. Let's assume that Abraham was born around 1860 (which would make his age at death 97). If Fannie were 81, she would have been born around 1868. If Fannie were 79, she would have been born around 1870. The passenger list of the Anchoria on which she immigrated with her mom, Rose Adler Orel, and daughter “Ester,” 7, and son “Pinkas” (Louis/Foff), 1 month, arrived July 24, 1893 and lists her as 26 years old — meaning she was born around 1867. | OREL, Frima (Little Bubbe) (Fannie) (I734)
