Edgar and partners thank you for a rare glimpse of genealogical records
from the 1700s
The records include a listing for a Maria Brender born around 1760
My great grandmother Mariam Brender was born in Sadagura around 1875
I would guess the listed Maria Brender was somehow related to great
grandmother Mariam Brender maybe even her father's grandmother
I would think Maria/Mariam was a relatively rare name for a Jewess from
Bukovina.
Any other Jewish Maria/Mariam relatives out there?
Thanks again
