Surnames: Moscovitch/Moscovicic/ Feldman
I am looking for any possible leads/information on Rebeccah Moscovitch/Moscovici who was born in Rumania in 1910. She left at a young age and moved to London, where her name was shortened to Moss. She had 2 susters, Renee and Brenda that we know of. I believe she still has a cousin in London. I have been searching for years to find any information. Rebeccah is from a Jewish family. Her mother was very petite. Her father was very tall and a gambler. It is thought that he or his parents came from Russia. Anyone with any possible information, please contact me. Thank you.

Hi Naomi! My grandmother was Rebecca Moscovitch/Moskowitz from Botosani, Romania. She had at least two sisters, Renee and Brenda... both Anglicized names. Brenda went by Brina or Brana, which I believe translates to Bertha. The family came to Whitechapel, UK in the early 1900's and was Jewish. Parents were Harris and Hana (nee Grin/mberg) Moscovitch/Moskowitz... have seen it spelled both ways.
