I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask: I was wondering whether Anna, a daughter of Luba Revich (Revich is that Luba's maiden last name, I don't know what that woman's married last name is), who was married to some Yasha (she had no children from him) made it to Israel from Kishinev by early 1990s. I think I was told that Anna could have followed her husband to Israel because he had had relatives there, perhaps his daughter with her family or something.
Anna must have been in her 70s by the time the Soviet Union broke up and had one brother who fathered three half-Russian children with his Siberian wife or something. In Kishinev Anna must have worked in their telegraph station, perhaps at a high-level position, due to her extraordinary knowledge of Romanian which she must have acquired during her school years in the Romanian-occupied Moldova, before the war.
Anna's mother, Luba Revich, was the only sibling of Ihil Revich who, probably pretty much like Luba, was born around 1890s, maybe in Kishinev, and fathered two daughters, Hannah (my mother's mother) and Haya around early 1920s. I don't know whether my parents told it to Anna but Hannah died in 1990 in Kishinev after enduring breast cancer for two years. Hannah was listed in American Embassy's documents, with her daughter, Liza, but died like nine months before Liza, Liza's daughter- I-Gelena, my father, and many relatives of my father made it to the United States, Birmingham, Alabama.
We have been going through some very hard times here, so in a few weeks I and my mother are planning to relocate to Israel but I can give below, if interested, my and my father's mailing addresses. I heard that Haya is still alive and relocated to Moscow, to join her son and his family there a few years ago.
If they wish (I'm afraid that Anna may no longer be alive but if I'm wrong, that's great), they can write to us:
Gelena Bronshteyn,
P. O. Box 59842,
Birmingham, Alabama 35259,
United States of America
Since my father will remain in Birmingham once I and my mother leave, they can write to him:
Mark Bronshteyn,
313 Dulaine Cove,
Birmingham, Alabama 35210,
United States of America
