Diane Jacobs #643993 Personally, I have found while stokes past down ate not totally true, there is usually some truth that can lead to facts and documentation.

Subject: [JewishGen.org] Fairy Tales my Father Told Me #belarus Was it common to tell lies about how one's ancestors got out of Russia? For instance, my father told me that his father was a good swimmer and saved several lives when a ferry sank, so the Tsar let him leave Russia (between 1904-1907). I've also heard of stories used to justify escaping from the draft and leaving the country. Brian S. Duchan. Fairfield, CT -- Diane Jacobs, Somerset, New Jersey
