The Kunin/Abrahamson (Abramis) Family
This information was donated by GK
My Grandmother Ciwje (Celia) Kunin, was born on January 10, 1893, in Minsk. Afterwards the family lived in Vitebsk. Her Father’s name was Lewis Kunin and her Mother’s name was Muska Abrahamson (Abramis). My Grandmother left Vitebsk when she was 18 years old. She traveled to New York by way of Holland. The departure was from Rotterdam on the ship called “The Nieuw Amsterdam”. She arrived in New York on December 4, 1911. At first she lived with an Aunt in the Bronx. She married on May 24, 1913. I do not believe the entire family arrived in the US at the same time.
