Hi,
My name is Susan Moore, but Moore was the "American" name my grandfather took, changing it from Skomorovky. He was Jewish (so are we). We've been doing a family backgound search also, and discovered he was from Zhitomir, in the Ukraine.From there, we discovered that in the region of Zhitomir, there is a village called Skomorokhi.We also discovered that the Skomorokhi people were the entertainers of Russia during the middle ages. Thought you might find this helpful.Good luck!Susan
