From Mineapples MO . Sister Jean


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You mis-spelled "Minneapolis" and you used MO - Missouri - instead of MN - Minnesota. It would take some one who was enormously skilled, highly intelligent and, above all, devilishly handsome to help you.

BOY were you lucky!

Rosenbloom is a Jewish name. If I was stereotyping I'd say they got out of Russia just ahead of the Czars pogoms, stayed in England for a bit and then headed across the Atlantic, tired, poor and yearning to be free. Mom and Dad put in 16-hour days at the bakery / shoe shop / fish stall. The kids became doctors, lawyers and scientists.

You can pop my balloon by telling me the kids all married Norwegians and moved to Lake Woebegon to live in a small town, raise wheat and be Lutherans.

Going back any further will probably be tough. The records in Russia the Cossacks didn't burn got destroyed by the Nazi vermin.

I can't find him in 1920, but I didn't spend more than 10 minutes trying. Your local Family History Center, in the LDS church, may have access to census images. They will let you search for free. Call and ask. They don't care what religion you are as long as you are interested in genealogy. Wear a good shirt and slacks and don't offer to buy them a beer, though.
