Help Needed to Locate Family in Israel
#general
Sharen Hogarth
I previously posted re locating my cousin Shmulik DOKTOROV/DOCTOROV in
Kiryat-Shmona & a kind Genner provided a telephone number for his wife, Klara. The number unfortunately was no longer in service. I then decided to write to an address that I was given for them... that was in July & as yet I have had no response. Therefore, I am wondering if there is anyone in the group who knows of the family or lives in the Kiryat-Shmona area & would be able to contact them for me. I would be most grateful for any assistance. Please respond privately to mailto:sjhogarth@... Sharen Hogarth Ontario, Canada |
