Goldfuss in South Africa; from Dennis Kahn

Dennis Kahn mentions Tsipa Goldfuss from Telsiai, Lithuania on his family tree. Abraham Goldberg of Jerusalem had mentioned that his Avrohom Goldfuss was from Telsiai, also.
"Tsipa married Shrago (Faive) Gochin . Her eldest daughter was Sarah who married Sholem Tyskiai (1859-1927), 5th son of Moshe and Reicha, livestock dealer. Tsipa died at age 50. She was a religious woman, loved for her hospitality and kindness." Her husband died at age 68 in PE (Papile).

Minnie (Ita Mina b Shmuel) Goldfuss from Kiev 1878-1955 married Jacob (Yacov, Yehuda, ) from Papile 1873-1938 in 1898. Jacob went to South Africa in 1893.

Comments:
Ita-Minna Goldfuss (Daughter of Shmuel, b. in Kiev, Russia) is my Great Great Grandmother. She married Jacob Bergman whose original surname was Gochan (took over a business originally run by a Bergman - so changed his name to Bergman). Jacob's parents were Fiver Gochin and Tsipora/Tsipa Goldfuss. His sister was sarah
