At the time of Ada's birth, her birthplace of Lutsk was in Russia which is now Ukraine. In past centuries the town has also been part of Poland depending on the political factions.
Naomi along with children Ben, Sam, and Ada came to the United States through Ellis Island in roughly 1905.
Buried: United Hebrew Cemetery, 7855 Canton Ave (at North and South Rd.), St. Louis, MO 63130, 314-727-9524
In Ada's declining years she always reminded any gathering of family that she was the oldest which at the time time was true. For a woman of very short stature, she came off as a giant with her frequent reminder of her age.
