" My grandmother was Beila (later Neifeld), and her brothers were Laizer (Louis), Mendel (Max), and Nuchum (Norman).
Louis was the first one to immigrate to the US, followed by Max just before WWI.  However, my grandmother married Yonah Neifeld from Proskurov and moved there.  My mother and her family were survivors of the 1919 pogrom that struck Proskurov and Felshtin.
