Hi,
I am looking for information on the David Kor family of Somerville, NJ?

David Kor (1887-1966) married Sarah Potter (1889-1987) in Russia or Lithuania (or both actually) arrived in NYC, NY between 1906-1907 from Bremen, Germany.

It is believed that the original name may have been "Kerpotkin" and was changed when they reached Ellis Island.

They settled in Somerville, Somerset County, New Jersey and had three children that I am aware of: Irving b. 1912; Libby, 1918, and Ruth, 1927.

It is believed that David had other siblings that arrived in New York, that were given the names Kor, Kerr, & Potter at Ellis Island.

That's what I know. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks, Petra
