5 1921 marriage record in Vilnius says she's 35, but that would put her birth in 1886, while her father died about 1876. Internal passport in 1922 says age 36, so again estimated 1886. So her birth date isn't jiving with what we know about the family. Palewski, Judith Jeanne (I356)
 
6 1925 Kaunas draftee list -- Gershon. Palefsky, Schepsel (I11676)

9 7/18/2020: Daughter Rachel's death notice in Cape Town says her mother was Hinda (and father George). So far, this is the only source for her name. Roseman, Hinda (I11044)
 
10 8/11/2019: Might be a first cousin of Peisakh Abramovitch per revision lists and Kobrin births. Further research needed.  Palefsky, Sender (I2486)
 
11 8/12/2019: Eliyahu's Branches states that Benjamin died in Maltsh in 1916. However, we found a death record at Ancestry and also found a grave right next to wife Manukha in the Dawes Road cemetery. Benjamin & Manukha are also in the 1901 and 1911 Canada censuses.
The Dawes Road cemetery website has gravestone photos, but the Benjamin Brown stone is completely washed out. Submitted a request for photo from Find-a-grave, in hopes that there's at least something visible on the stone if photographed from a different angle. 
Brown, Benyamin (Ramm) (I928)
 
12 8/2019: aejordan attempted to photograph the headstone, but was unable to find it in the section identified by the cemetery. Palefsky Glass, Elimelekh (Eli Michael) (I580)
 
13 Adopted by Yussel Friedman in order to avoid the Tsarist army. Brought up by his adoptive parents in Wisoky-Litovsk, Byelorussia. Eliyahu changed his name to Friedman and married Khaya Mindel, a daughter of Yussel Friedman.

14 Aron Mintz's NYC marriage cert identifies his mother as Ida Levin, and several trees on Ancestry identify her as Chaia Itka Levin, died approx 1888. Looking for additional sources to corroborate/validate. Levin, Chaia Itka (Ida) (I3126)
