Help Needed for any Giltin Relatives
My name is Sarah Gitlin and I am looking for any information about my ancestors who include: Joshua Gitlin and his brother Julius Gitlin Arthur Gitlin Where were these men from? I think that Joshua and his brother came to the USA from the USSR circa 1906.
Because of non-communication with my Gitlin father, I have no information about my father's side of the family. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Sarah

Re: Help Needed for any Giltin Relatives
Hello I am sorry for taking so long in replying to you email. I was in Ireland and have just gotten caught up with everything. My Morris Gitlin had descendants that I have not been able to locate. Hopefully we are dealing with same Morris Gitlin. My Morris Gitlin was born about 1865 in what is today Belarus. He was a rabbi here in Windsor, Ontar for only a few years and then moved to Michigan. Only one of his sons stayed in Canada and his name was Joshua though he did go by John and another name which escapes my memory right now. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Take care. Sue

Did your Morris Gitlin come to Detroit Michigan around 1903-06? If so, we are definitely talking about the same Morris Gitlin. I do have some info about MOrris that you might find interesting. Sue

My maternal grandmother's maiden name is Gitlin adn we live in the Detroit area (where she was born). Her Father was Koppel (or Kopel) Gitlin and her mother was Anna Friedman Gitlin. We are jewish, if that helps. does any of this sound familiar? BTW, i have a family tree of some of my Gitlin ancestors.

I just remembered, one generation farther back from Koppel is his father, Yale Gitlin, but that is as far back as i go. Yale is my great-great grandfather.
