Hopefully reviewing it will help you recall forgotten families
whose offspring some of you might know the whereabouts of. We should
contact them in a coordinated fashion with the hope that they would be
interested in contributing (financially or other ways) to the preservation of
their ancestor’s gravesites. The pages in the Federation History book
mention the leadership of families with whom I’m sure you’ll be familiar.
Included among that group are: Abrams, Citron, Deitz, Feinberg, Finkle, Glazer,
Gordon, Kahn, Klatzkin, Levy, Palat, Perlman, Punia, Schnur, Stark, Teich,
Walcoff, Warren and many, many more. They are all listed in the book’s
index at the end.
I also think that you will each be amused to look at some of the
pictures in the book. Two of our group (I’ll let you each be surprised)
have their pictures on pages 51 and 52. There are many photos in the book
that are captivating to look at.
In the same vein as above, Art Finkle also wrote a book worth
reviewing for the same purpose. It’s entitled Trenton's Jews:
Beginning, Adaptation and Achieving the American Dream and is
available from Amazon.com.
