FERBER family Russia to NY and NJ
Looking for any info on this family, esp Charles,Samuel, and Isaac.
Isaac Ferber and Jennie Cohen, Russia. Unknown if they came to USA. Samuel Ferber,a.k.a. Sam, son of Isaac and Jennie, and his wife Nettie (a.k.a. Annie) Abelovsky immigrated to New York from Russia ca. 1892-1895. Children of Sam and Nettie were Jacob b. 1879 in Russia; Charles b. ca. 1882-1884 in Russia; Jeanette, born (date?) in Russia. The youngest child of Samuel and Nettie was Pearl Ferber, born Dec 1895 (1st American born FERBER).I have been unable to find them on Ship manifests - most likely left out of Bremen, Germany. Lived for a short time somewhere in Germany before leaving for USA.
FERBER may not have been the original surname in Russia. Possibility they changed it when they fled pograms in Russia and stayed in Germany until they could leave for USA.
Successful in clothing manufacturing business in NY (FERBER DRESS CO.; FERBER DRESS HOUSE; etc). Jacob VERY active in community: superintendant of Jewish orphan home,Synagogue, Bank, and hospital board member.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
