My great grandfather’s sister was Esther Birnbaum (née Kanarek), widow of Joseph Birnbaum. Her family came from Galicia. She had two daughters who died in NYC (Rose Appel and Rebecca Lichtblau). I have been trying to find records for them on JRI-Poland without success. I have found American records but not European records. If you run across them in your research, please let me know. Thanks!
