Hi, Allison;
The Franckels and Goldethals are from my daughter-in-law's family. They immigrated to the US around the 1900s with the first being Leiser David Franckel (Frankel) who was born on 22 Aug 1882 in Huși, Vaslui County, Romania and his wife Sophie Goldenthal b. Abt 1889 in Huși, Vaslui County, Romania. Sophie arrived a couple of months after Leiser David accompanied by their children, Leon and Elisa Lillie, and her parents, Isaac Itzhok Goldenthal (1858–1922) and Caroline Goldner (1861–1935). They all arrived at New York in 1913. The passenger list shows the next of kin in Romania as Hannah or Anna Franckel identified as 'mother'. She was living in Iasi (Jassy) at the time. Does any of this sound familiar?
