Jacob Kadetski part 3: Jake's son Alexander Kadetsky tragically drowns

Tragically, Jake Kadetski's son Alex died at 18 years old. Alexander Kadetsky appears to be an Americanized name. I am unsure if he is Itzig or Elie who immigrated in 1910 at ages of 17 and 18 respectively or if this is a different son who I have not yet found his immigration manifest. There are no known records for Itzig or Elie aside from their Ellis Island Manifests. In 1913, Itzig would have been 20 and Elie 21, so the ages do not match either of the boys unless Itzig lied about his age to enable him to be old enough for him to travel with his brother. Whatever the case, Alexander's death was tragic. 




The article says that Godie (Godel) Braman was a "cousin," son of Rachael Braman nee Given. Here is the Braman family plot. I think there is something nice about putting the picture of the deceased on the headstone.
