Where are all the KABAKOFF's??
I am a Kabakoff and have been for 18 years. I was born into a Kabakoff family and my father's name is Phillip. We live in Australia and recently my father's father died. His name was Vitali. I am searching for any history or information about the last name KABAKOFF. Can anyone help me?

Kristy,
My name is Robyn Kabakoff. I believe your dad Phillip spoke to my dad Phillip. I currently live in Austin, Texas and came across your message. It's really weird because both of our dads have the same name, spelling and all, with no middle name. I also believe that you have brother named Jason Scott and so do I. Let me know if this reaches you because I would be very interested in talking with you.
Your distant relative, Robyn

Hi. I believe I spoke to your dad Phillip, the younger. I live in Arlington Texas, near Dallas. Do you live in Brisbane? Please send you E-mail and I'll fill you in on what I know. (I believe my daughter Roby also sent a message.)
Phil (The older)

Kristy,
I am currently doing genealogical research on my family (My grandmother was Mollie Kabakoff) from Belarus (Russia). We have a fairly large family based on what I have found to date. If you are Jewish, or have Jewish ancestry from Belarus, it is possible that we are related. My grandmother was born in 1890. In order to confirm a connection, I would need to know your ancestry from her parents generation.

Can you tell me the names of others in Mollie's family? I'm not sure where that generation was from. What cities can you connect to in the US? My family is from Cincinnati, Ohio

Re: Where are all the KABAKOFF's??
Mollie is descended from Zelek Kabakoff. Most of the family that I am familiar with settled eventually in Memphis, TN. However, there are several others how settled in St. Louis, MO and elsewhere. As I am at work, I do not have access to my data bases. I will post additional info later this week for you.

Hi -- my grandmother Lillian is a Kabakoff from Brooklyn, NY. Her father, Abraham, came from Russia as a child. Any relation?

Re: Where are all the KABAKOFF's??
Allison, I am descended from an extensive Kabakoff line that we can trace back to the mid 1700's in Dokshitzy, Minsk Gubernia, Belarus (Bylerussia) or White Russia. Thgere is a possiblity that we could be related as the name Lillian (never married) does appear in one branch of the family. Additional information on Abraham would help in determining any relationship.
