Treasure Chest Thursday: FLPBA 25th anniversary publication: sister members
On the past three Treasure Chest Thursday posts I've listed the 72 male members of the First Lubiner Progressive Benevolent Association (FLPBA) - the landsmanshaft organization for those who settle in New York City after emigration from Lubin (Labun), Russian Empire. Only a handful of female members were listed in the 25th anniversary publication in 1936. They all appear to be widows of members and may have been from Lubin, themselves.
Of those I have been able to identify, all were buried in the FLPBA burial plot in block 89, gate 156N in Montefiore Cemetery, Queens, New York.
- R. Blumfield - Rose Blumenfeld
- Brawerman - likely Ida Braverman (widow of Isidore, who died in 1933)
- Z. Goldberg - Zlote (Lottie) Goldberg (Bernard, d. 1925)
- D. Reitman - Dora Reitman (Morris, d. 1935)
- I. Schachter - possibly Fannie Schecter (Shimon, d. unknown)
