Many, many years ago, I deluged my uncle Roby with questions about the history of the Sandler family. Where did they come from ? What happened in Russia ? What happened at 48 Harlem Street in Dorchester growing up with Boby and Zaidy ? What was that like ? I
have letters from him saying, I am very busy, but I will get to your questions, and he did. Here are three genealogical charts he put together for me. At the top is a chart showing Boby, Minnie Rutstein (Raigorodsky) married Morris I. Sandler on Auguest 15, 1920. Below that is a chart showing Boby's family whose maiden name was Minnie Raigorodsky. Upon arrival at Ellis Island, the name was changed to Rutstein. Below is a chart showing Zaidy's parents, Zina Sandler and Rachel Ring who did not come to America. The notes in pencil are mine while talking to Roby on the phone.

Hi Carol! You're doing a great job with the family history! I think we have a copy of this somewhere, but your organization, notes, memories and clear explanations are a great thing for the family to have.
thanks a lot ellen. It's nice to know the rest of the family is getting something useful from making this family history accessible to everybody. It's a real bonus for me to connect with the rest of the family at the same time !
