Research Notes
Rebeka may have immigrated to the USA in 1889 or 1890 with her son Simon and daughter Estera. If she did, then she lived with them in Toledo, Lucas County, Ohio until her death.[4][5] Rebeka may have died in Toledo, Lucas County, Ohio, USA on 5 Jun 1910. The birthdate on her death record is 20 May 1810. The informant's name on her death record is "A. Friedman," perhaps Alexander Friedman?[6][7]
