1901 Abraham Kadetsky

After 1901, arrivals were more frequent - did they come to join families or on their own?  Who did they leave behind?  Who came later to join them?  Who did they write letters to and who did they never see again? Abraham, age 39, arrived in New York  in 1901.  His arrival record states he was from Biezun - we begin to come closer to our origins with that detail, which none of the previous arrivals stated.

In 1905 the Kadetsky party below arrived in New York:

Bessie, 43 and her children,

Arthur, 15
Hyman, 9
Ida, 8

We find them again in the 1920 United States Federal Census

Massachusetts, Middlesex County, Everett: 145 Jefferson Avenue

Bessie arrived in the United States in 1905. Both of their parents are listed as being from Poland.
