Morris Kagan from Vilnus, Lithuania
My uncle is from Vilnus, Lithuania. He currently lives in Massachusetts. He immigrated to the Boston area after WWII. My grandmother, Morris's sister, was Bashia Kagan and later became Beatrice Paul, when she married and came to America. I will ask my uncle about the Kagan's you mentioned and let you know if he has heard of them.

Dear Adam,
Thanks so much for your help. I really don't know where to start looking in Lithuania for my grandmother, Dora KAGAN. Any information would be appreciated. Linda

My Grandfathers name was also Morris Kagan and he too came from Vilnus, Lithunia. He came to the U.S. about 1900-1902. He was married to Sadie. Their children were: Rose, Ben, Henry and Leo. Would your uncle know anything about them?

Re: Kagans in South Africa
Hi: I too was born in Johannesburg, South Africa - my grandparents were Israel & Sheina Kagan (but, they are buried under the name Cohen) the children were Sonia, Naomi, Riva, Abe and Jacob (Jack) - Jack was my dad- they were all from Ponyveis, Lithuania. I have a brother, Les Kagan in Toronto and my late brother, Michael was living in Israel when he died. Please contact me - anyone who even has an inkling that we may be related! Thank you.
