Sylvia Lucette Abrams Jones
It was always a curiosity to me that she had a middle name of Lucette. I never thought to ask her how she got that name.
But if it is true that Lisetta Stern, a widow born in Darmstadt in 1831, was in fact the mother of our Ida Stern, born in 1862 in New York, whom we know for sure becomes the mother of our Michael Abrams, who was born in 1890, who was, we know for sure, the father of our Sylvia Lucette Abrams, who was born in 1920, well, it all makes perfect sense!
Did I lose you?
You see, in the Jewish tradition of naming your child with a name that begins with the first letter of a dead relative, Sylvia Lucette may have been given the middle name of Lisetta Stern, her grandmother!
It's just all too cool!
Stay tuned............
