Is anyone in this group researching Jewish ancestors from Russia
I am getting frustrated when the answer to "from" is Russia or the misspelling Rusha.
My great-great-grandfather Jacob Moses and his wife Hinda Berestatski were married about 1865 and had 5 children between 1867 and 1879. Declaration of Naturalization dated 27 Oct 1883 shows Native of Roumania and immigration in 1881. The 1900 Census has the family living in Richmond VA and Naturalized.
I have been unable to locate any ship manifests for these 7 persons. I do not know where they left from nor where they arrived. ANY ADVISE TO AID IN MY SEARCH WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
Jacob Moses (b.abt 1840), Hinda Ber/Berestatski Moses (b.abt 1840), Celia Moses (b. 1867), Rosa (b.1870), Bessie (b.1872), Chaim (b. 1874), Josiah (b. 1879).
Thank you, Debra Zimbler
