A message from BolekC: Actually, I think I figured it out. The 1911 Wittikind manifest shows Chava traveling with Srul (Isadore), Rivka, Chaim (Hyman) and Zelig (Sam). This is consistent with the naturalization docs I've seen for Isadore, Hyman and Sam. Chane (Chava) is listed as Moishe's spouse in the category "closest relative from country of origin" in the 1910 Breslau manifest . I initially misread the document as showing her traveling with Moishe. "Keile Fishman" in the 1910 Breslau manifest confused me. According to the document she is 19 years old. Moishe and Chava's older daughter, Lena, was 19 years old in 2010, and Lena is not otherwise accounted for, so I believe that Keile must be Lena. Also listed in that same manifest is Moishe and Chava's oldest son, Josef Fishman, traveling to Cleveland. That accounts for all of the children. It appears Moishe came over with the two oldest and Chava followed a year later with the rest.
