Abraham Goldberg in Jerusalem to Milton Levenfeld

"My maternal great grandfather lived in Telsiai 100+ years ago and had a first cousin Avrohom Goldfuss. He seems to be the father of a veritable tribe. Your GOLDFUSS of Telsiai data is one of the most direct relevance to me and I believe that "my" Avrohom and some of his family are included in the list you received from the Lithuanian State Historical Archives. Avrohom had a number of children, one of whom was Zalman married to a Chaya Faige Frijohn. He (and other siblings( moved to Dublin, Ireland, probably early this century, and changed his name to GOLDFOOT. Around 1870 his wife gave birth to twin girls, Hinde, who married a Henry Myerson, and Tsipa married a Joseph Karnovsky. I wonder whether/how this Tsipa was related to your Tsipa, who married Fiver Gochin. Is there any way we can find the link between our two Telsiai families of the 19th century? "
