Surnames: Kogan
My father was named Hyman Kogan and he was born March 25, 1925 and he had 3 brothers and 2 sisters. One of them was named Anna. He was born in Romania under a Romanian king and then it switched into Russian hands. He was born in the region of Moldova in the city of Kisheinev. Also, known as Chinisau. His brothers names were Michael, Jake and David. His sisters' names were Anna and Esther. They were living in Kisheinev with his parents. He escaped from Russia in 1948 and lived in Italy and got married for 25 days. He traveled from Italy to Canada. He got married to my mom in Montreal and then went to Brooklyn, NY to have his aunt, Esther and Uncle Ben sponsor him in the US. They settled in Bronx, NY. Then he lived in Connecticut. I hope this helps you. If we are related let me know. His father was adopted by his stepfather and there is a name change. We would like to know what is original name was.
