Hi Karen I managed to track my family down to Lida which is a town near Grodno in Belarus. My great grandfather Avram Avigderov Boyarsky from Lida married Frume Girshonova Rosenberg there in 1897. My grandfather Harry travelled to Pittsburg, via London where he was in 1911. He spent most of his life in Montreal. Sometimes Harry's papers name him Boyarsky sometimes Boyarsky.
