Sorry I can't help you. Mark's father, Jonas Kiken was born 1926 in Bronx, NYC, New York, USA. Jonas' father, Morris (Moyshe) KIKEN was born 1899 in Scynipischuck, Stryy, Austria, Ukraine and died 1946 in Jersey City, Hudson, New Jersey. Morris' father was Yonah Yoina KIKEN and 2nd wife Annie WEISBERG. Yonah was married 1st to Dora (Dina)and they had four children, including a David Kiken born 1892 and died Oct 1975.

An interesting family, to say the least. Davis was "a liquor dealer.Yonah had a brother Brother Isur who was a partner in a horse ranch in Stryy, Austria, Ukraine. Interesting fact that they were Jewish yet owned land and ranch. The horses were lipizzaner stallions and this fit in with some of the more recent generations handling horses in the NY police Dept. And then there is the connection to the General Kiken, the Kiken Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia, the downfall of Czar Peter the Great's son due to his tutor.

Ah well, sorry I couldn't help! Have a good evening!
Hilary
