Mordechai Shmuel Basch

Since then we found that Mordechai Shmuel had a son born 1851 so it is more plausible that Mordechai Shmuel was Elka Beila's father. This also explains the Tabak DNA match of Freida Schatz

Another member of the Bash family for future research is Jacob Bash, perhaps their first cousin. He had a daughter named Elke Beile (1857), probably named after a common ancestor.

I attached Mordechai Smuel as a brother of Jacob and Mendel Srul from Szurdok, because all three of them had daughters named Elka Beila and sons named Hersch leib.
