    Ruth Moreno 12/05:  Hyman (Herman's) siblings - that I know/knew were Gussie who became Gussie Fishkin - husband Joseph Fishkin.  Gussie had two children, a daugher Lenore and a son - whose name I can't recall at present.  Gussie kept a family tree - that would be in the hands of Lenore's two daughers now, but I cannot find any information about them. (...)  The only name I have managed to bring forth, from days of really trying, is Robert - he being a son of my Aunt Gussie.  The names of her children, that you provided don't mention that name - perhaps he was called Robert and listed as another "given" name.
