What I know is limited. My father, Abraham, does not like to talk about his family and there are a lot of gaps in what he knows.
His father was Isaac Sam (Samuel?) Silverstein. Isaac had a brother, Sam, who was murdered in 1946 in front of his house on Park Place in Brooklyn. Isaac had a half-brother, Anchel Tosha, who had two children, Bella and Meyer.
Isaac's mother was Chana, who died in 1953.
Isaac had two sons, Abraham, and Seymour. Isaac died in the late 1970s and Seymour died in 1995. Isaac had one daughter, Greta.
Isaac and his family lived on Park Place in Brooklyn, NY and then moved to Washington, DC
Isaac was married to the former Norma Bernstein, who lived in Kansas City for a time.
None of this seems to jive completely with what you have said, but it is an interesting coincidence that these people all have the same names, isn't it?
