My Bubby, Sonia, had a sister Ida who was married to Grandpa's brother Isaac in Houston. I don't see her name on any of the things we've talked about. I know that Bubby came to this country in 1909 with her mother Miriam and Grandpa ("Moshe Garber"); they were married in either 1909 or 1910. My mother was born in August of 1911. Bubby was listed on the ship's manifesto as Slime Litinsky Rechter, but we have no idea what the name Litinsky was from, and we've never encountered it again. Any ideas? By the way, "Slime" was a bastardization of her Yiddish name, Shlema.
