FACTS and TIDBITS

From Arnie Levin:
My goodness did you know that my Uncle Jack's name is Sam, Uncle Harry's name is Reuben, and Uncle Al's name is Elia? BOY! Do I love this genealogy stuff! Additionally my grandfather Max Czusik took the last name Rich, which is the last name his in-laws took. So he became Max Rich, however I had a great uncle named Max Rich who had a daughter Sarah Rich, which is of course, the name of my grandfather's wife; and unfortunately my great uncle's wife Mary Rich had a sister-in-law Mary Rich, yes a different great aunt, but she at least married Morris Lipman and became Mary Lipman. BOY! Do I love this genealogy stuff! Needless to say I am looking for people since my newfound hobby has become an obsession.

Arnie Levine Researched: he SCHECTMAN family (SCHECKHTMAN, SHEKHTMAN, SHECHTMAN, SHECKMAN) from Ksaverov and Sarnovich, [All in the UKRAINE (RUSSIA), currently the **Volhynia Gubernia and Zhitomirskaya Oblast]. The  SCHECKHTMAN family took the name of RICH. They came to the USA circa 1890-1915 and settled in Chicago, Illinois.
