Thank you again Ellie! My family has had these pictures for ages and we haven't had a clue who they were other than relatives. This is helping me piece together our history and its wonderful! I have a question. Is there any chance that Pola could be Beila? Or was it common to have a universal knickname. If not I suppose she likely just changed her name after moving to the US.
