I now i'm sidestepping but if it helps find these older siblilngs for Sam or as naomi stated Uncles to Sam then bring it on.....LOL
      The tree does not have any info further back than Israel, nor is there a contact. Couldn't see them in a newer tree either.
      It is just that immediate family.

                  • KarenS....I think the Cohens left Montreal and went to Trenton, Ontario and then Toronto. Not sure how long they stayed in Montreal.

                    • Hi Everyone...I read your message #291, Wendi...Since I was born in Toronto, the fourth in the Cohen Family, Saul & Martha were born in Toronto,Max & Bernie were born in Montreal. I do believe we lived in Toronto,then the family moved from Montreal. We must have spent some considerable time in Toronto..When the depression deepened in the 30`s, we moved to Trenton ..I do remember my mother Fanny feeding the HOBOs, who came off the trains, looking for work...It was a very bad time for a lot of people...I attended kindergarten, so I may have been 5 or 6 years old at that time...Martha was a toddler, about three yrs. old...We had a wonderful childhood there...Never a moment of hunger...Farmers there were very generous with their vegetable crops, eggs.,milk...I believe we were there for about 4-5 years..then we moved to Toronto, as the pant factory that he worked in, closed down...Just thought I would fill you in...Thanks everyone for your great interest in the Cohen, Myers, history...It is greatly appreciated.!!!...bsc

                                Yes, it's lovely to hear old stories from before our time, or my time (b. 1953) I wished I had listened more carefully to my grandmother's stories before she died in 1967, but I was too young to be interested then, now it's too late. Keep these stories coming bsc.... we're all ears.

                                We should never forget them,
                                Because we would not be here today, but for them.
                                We should be proud, reflect, respect and always remember them.
                                Because we all have them…
                                Them… were our Ancestors.
