The Broudy Bunch Research done by Fran Segall |
||||||||
Members of the Broudy family came to the United States in the early 1900s. Dora came in 1911, and Tillie in 1913, leaving their father, Aisik David Brevda, and their mother, Sarah Melnikoff, behind in Mscibow. Both arrived at Ellis Island on their way to Holyoke, Massachusetts to join their cousin, Isaac Broudy. The only pictures we have of them are from 1920 and 1939. |
