Historical Dorf Photographs
Dorf Family - Cousins of
the Siegels & some Siegels This picture was provided by Rolland Walt who writes: "This photo taken January l950 is the only known photo of all the Siegel cousins together. Grandpa Chaim, Aunt Jennie, Uncle Carl, etc. called them "Cousin Joe" "Cousin Irv" etc. They were first cousins to our grandfather (Chiam Siegel) because they were Michel Labe's sister's children. It's possible you did not know them, but those of us who grew up in Virginia like Sam Siegel and myself had a close relationship with them. And Ada and I still feel close to Fannie's children and grandchildren and we are looked upon as close family. From left to right: Sidney Israel, Fan Israel, Wm. Israel, Pat Tully, Rose Siegel, Joe Siegel, Ben Walt, Pearl Walt, Laura Siegel, Irv Siegel, Belle Siegel, (David Israel in front) Al Siegel, Anne Marans Albert Marans, Robert Marans. All the Siegel cousins in the photo are deceased except 92 years young Belle who lives in Florida and Michigan, Laura who has since remarried and Cousins Sidney and David Israel and cousin Robert Marans live in Detroit area." |
