Surnames: POBER, POBERESKY, POBERCZISKI, DAVIDSON, ISRAEL
My POBERs were close cousins to Abraham POBER (Abram POBERCZISKI on his 1906 passenger list) -- born 2 Mar. 1890, Ukraine. He was probably from the Elizavetgrad (Kirovograd) area of Kherson, but last live d in Odessa. He married Gussie about 1911-15 and died 4 Apr. 1949 in Brooklyn. (Beware there was ANOTHER Abraham POBER married to a Gussie roughly the same time period). They had children Alfred (1914-54), Mary (m. DAVIDSON, b. 1917), and Seymour.

Abraham lived at teh same address as my POBER ancestors. His parents Nathan POBERESKY and Bessie ISRAEL POBERESKY were probably first cousins to my POBERs.

I have a photo of an A. and W. POBER, probably Abraham and his brother William. Lots of other unidentified old POBER photos. Would love to find Seymour or Mary if they are still alive, or their descendants.

Wow - I just randomly decided to google search my Grandpa's name and this popped up. My name is Ross - I'm Seymour Pober's Grandson.

Who are you? Send me an email at rossmgoldman@gmail.com (not houlie86).

I've always been interested in our family history and would be curious to hear what you know and share stories. Hope to hear from you soon.

-Ross

Did Seymour's wife Rita (your grandma) pass away? If so when?

I'm still compiling my giant Pober family tree. have you made any new finds since the last time we wrote (1.5 years ago)?
