The Ashkenazi Family
Notice Mary is not in the picture, nor is her older sister Eita. We believe they were already in the United States at the time this photo was taken.
Sarah - Shikah - Rivka - Schmuel - Harry - Celia Frieda - Manny - Gershon
Mary was born in 1887 and came to the US in 1902 when she was only 15 years old. Her older sister Eita was already in the states and living in the New York City with her husband Morris Katz. Mary married Harry Lerner in 1908 at the age of 21 and they had their first child Irving on January 12th, 1910. Here is Mary pictured with her sister Celia. Although I don't know the exact date, it was taken in New York by the Levin Studio at 333 Grand Street. This is probably the Grand Street in Brooklyn rather than the Manhattan Grand Street. Celia Ashkenazi-Glazier & Mary Ashkenazi-Lerner
This photograph was taken at the wedding of Tessie Glazier and Al Itzkin in February of 1934. Tessie is the daughter of Celia and the niece of Mary. I love this picture. Everyone from the first picture, (except Rivka), can be found in this group shot. Again thanks to Gerry Paltis for the picture and for naming all 41 attendees. Not bad considering this event took place 70 years ago!
