Harry and Fanny Rosenbloom came to this country from Lomza in
Russia-Poland in 1894. They left with the names
Aaron and Feigele Kravietski. Somehow, by the time they were
admitted at Ellis Island, Aaron
Kravietski had become Harry Rosenbloom and Feigele was now Fanny
Rosenbloom.
They arrived
with one child (Jacob/Jake) and settled on New York's Lower East
Side, near the Williamsburg Bridge. Fanny would have nine more
children, plus two who died in
infancy.
Harry was a tailor (though that could
mean he was a machine operator in the garment industry);
Fanny stayed home looking after her ever-growing family.
By 1918 they
had found their way to Asbury Park New Jersey. By 1930 we find
some still in Asbury Park and many moved to Brooklyn. After Harry died in
1932. Fanny and some children would return again to Asbury Park,
where Fanny remained until her death in 1955.
As their ten children married and made
their own homes, they dispersed a little, living in New Jersey (Asbury Park and Maplewood)
and New York City (Brooklyn and Bronx). From these ten, all of
whom married and nine having had children, have come 19 grandchildren and their spouses -
living in all parts of the country, perhaps 40
great-grandchildren plus their spouses, and possibly 40
great-great-grandchildren. Now we are welcoming the first of
the great-great-great-grandchildren of Harry and
Fanny Rosenbloom.

About these pages
In early 2009 some of Fanny Rosenbloom's
grandchildren, blessed by a happy coincidence of still
remembering Fanny and their aunts and uncles, and being able to
use the new technology of the internet to publish and share old
memories, started these Rosenbloom family pages. Many, from
all but the youngest generation, have helped by sending information
and images.
These pages are not a genealogy
website, though we try to list everyone and display some old
documents such as census forms and draft registration cards. We
see it a shared family scrapbook, with many pictures,
some biographies, recollections and lists.
