DAVID SHULMAN

According to Morris Benjamin's autobiography, "David Shulman was a fine, ambitious man who came to this country from the City of Kiev, Ukraine. He was working for the Root & McBride Co., jobbers of dry goods, and manufacturers of men's shirts, under Mr. Canton, who had charge of the manufacturing. My new brother-in-law was anxious to show me how a large factory of that size is operated in order that I might get an idea of the more modern methods of running a factory in comparison to the one operated by my brother, Benny." pp. 7-8

At David's funeral, two rabbis, his nephews officiated: Charles E Shulman of the North Shore Congregation in Chicago, and Albert M. Shulman of Temple Beth El in South Bend, Indiana.

Pallbearers included: nephews Samuel, David, Irwin, Willard, Walter and Sanford Benjamin, as well as Ben Saul, Nathan and Edward Shulman.

I have found a headstone for Isidore Shulman, who *may or may not* be David and Anna's child. The Hebrew name given is Eyzer (or Oyzer, depending on the accent) or Ozer son of Shmuel Tebl. or Tevel. I haven't found any information about David's Hebrew name.
