Family search

EDITH GIDONI, of Beersheba, wants to discover if she has any Kline or Rakusen relatives in Manchester.

Edith's grandfather was Yehezkel Kline, of Kurland, Latvia. Yehezkel, who had a grist mill, married Libia and had three children, Michael Lewis, Faitya and another son who was a pharmacist, possibly in England.
