(4/3/2013) I found your website through a
Google search for my grandmother, Molly Abelow. Molly and Joshua were my
grandparents on my father's side, Philip Abelow. My dad passed away
almost four years ago. Since then I've been interested in connecting
with other family members that we have lost contact with over the years.
Thanks, Chrissy Abelow cmabelow@gmail.com

who emigrated from Poland after the Holocaust. My grandmother was
Molly Abelow. They were both survivors of the Holocaust. I
have heard that the name used to be Abeloff, but was changed when they
came to America. My grandparents then lived in Youngstown,
Ohio. My father is David Abelow (one of a few by that name), now
living in the Baltimore area. He's best known as a world class
bridge player. I'd love to hear from anyone who may be related! MAbelow@sherrardroe.com

village of Nizhen in the Chernigov area of the Ukraine. Around 1902 she
married my grandfather Avram Aissen (Aizen) who lived in the town of
Chernigov. My grandmother's father was Joseph and her mother Malke

of my grandmother's children is my aunt Seema Aissen Weatherwax who is

current age 17, daughter of Dr. Stephen P. Abelow. My sister is Alexis
and my brother is Nicholas. It's so great to find a website on my

My name is Lucy Bucan, I'm from
Baku, Azerbaijan, former USSR, I live in US, Michigan since 1992. Sorry
for all confusion about Joshua Abelow. Here is all story. I found an ad
in the Russian Internet site, it was posted by Angelina Davidovich from
Chernigov, but since 1995 she lives in Israel and I'm only helping her. She's
looking for her father's two brothers, who left for America before
1917. Names are unknown. Angelina's father name was Isaac (1901) and he
was the youngest of eight children in the family of Abelev Leib and
Dweira. One of Isaac's sisters name was Genia, she came in America in
1912 in the age of 18 to join her brother Jascha (Sascha) Abelew, who
lived by 1912 at Brooklyn, New York, but I wasn't able to locate his
manifest in the system. But I've found a manifest of Louie Abelow, who
came to America in 1909 in the age of 19, but Gender is Female, I'm not
sure it's a mistake and real name can be Louis or it's an additional
sister, Angelina doesn't know about. Angelina
also remembers her father Isaac did talk about sister Hana, who took
care of him when parents passed away, she was humpbacked. So Jascha,
Louie, Genia, Hana, Isaac, are 5 kids from the same family, and it was 3
more Angelina doesn't know anything about. Now with all your help I
trying to find any J.Abelow and L.Abelow who lived in New York in 1910
or 1920 with father name Leib and mother name Dweira. I don't know the
way to find it. Thank you very much! Sincerely, Lucy. lbucan@yazakina.com
I'm an Abalo, my name is Alicia. I
live in New Jersey, where most of the Abalo family lives. that and
Pennsylvania. we are of spanish heritage, so im assuming ur talking
about the same Abalo heritage, Email me if ud like to know more Notouchie7@aol.com
I have a few interesting pieces of information for you,
which you can add to your site. First, it is interesting that you note
the ABALO name as connected with ABELOW. The computer at the Diaspora
Museum in Israel has linked ABELOW with the Spanish name CABELOU. Of
course, it is not 100% accurate. I presume the theory would be that the
Abelows were thrown out of Spain (or fled) during the Inquisition, and
that they made their way to Eastern Europe and then did not stay that
long, since my understanding is that many of the the Abelows came to the
US in the late 19th century.
My grandfather, for example, was born here in 1911(ish).
Also, I happen to have an extensive famiily tree, although it was
probably last updated in the 1950's. I was always told that the Abelows
were all related, and that theory has yet to be proven wrong. By the
way, I think Robert Abelow was a founding/senior partner at the (rather
large) law firm of Weil, Gotschal & Manges. I happen to be an
attorney and live in NYC. Look forward to hearing more info. ROSS ABELOW
RSABELOW@aol.com
Another message from Ross: 1. I have a
family tree of the Abelows that is on 20 some odd pages and when placed
together is about 20 feet long. I do not think it has really been
updated in 30 years.
2. It is interesting that you wrote about a
possible Spanish connection, since the computer at the Diaspora Museum
in Israel (as of 10-11 years ago) claimed that Abelow probably came from
Cabelou, which is definitely Spanish. I always assumed, that if the
computer is correct, that our ancestors left Spain during the
Inquisition and made their way across Europe.
3. As far as I know, all Abelows are related.
