I am related to the Philadelphia/Baltimore Imbers who came around 1905-1912. My grandmother is Sarah Imber who was a great aunt to Naftali Herz Imber. I believe that means that her grandfather was Naftali Herz Imber's great-grandfather. Her father was Menachem Mendel from Zbaraz, Galicia, Austria. Naftali's father was Samuel and his grandfather, Jacob, must have been a brother to Menachem Mendel (her father). If I could go back one more generation, I could make the direct link between my side of the family and Naftali's. I would need to know the name of Jacob and Menachem Mendel's father.
We are related to my grandmother's brothers: Louis (Phila., maybe Detroit), Mayer (Phila/maybe Detroit), Joseph (Baltimore), Aaron (Phila.)and Samuel (or Soloman) (who may have stayed in either France or England) and her sister Chaya (Clara) (Phila.). Louis's children were Anna and Pessie. Joseph's children were Hannah (Honey), Oscar and Bessie who married a Bortnick. Aaron's children were Michael, George, Jennie, Lizzie, Morris, Percy, Harry and Helen. In the 1920 census, Lizzie is referred to as Elizabeth Marks (she married Gustave Marks). Could this be the same as Bessie Marcus? Does any of this match up with any other known branches of the Imber family?
