I am struggling to make a strong connection to his parents living in New York City. It has occurred to me that they never left the Russian Empire. All I know about my great-grandfather is that he was an alcoholic later in life.

Trying to add parents but I don't know their birth/death years. I now have the confidence they are Issack Jacob Levine and Rachel Rebecca Sachs!
