Other Events:

• Jewish Name: Shmuel Akivah
• Occupation: tailor, in women's apparel
• Immigration: 13 Mar 1905, Ellis Island, New York, New York

Notes:

His Yiddish name was Shmuel Akivah; his "nickname" was a shortened form, Kive (pronounced "Ki-veh"). In the US, his first name is spelled differently on different documents -- Karl/Carl, Karol, and Kive/Kiwe. The family name is also spelled differently on different documents -- Leibowitz, Liebowitz, and Lewowicz (pronounced Levovitch). According to Kive, the name was pronounced "Levovitch" or "Lebovitch" in Russian Yiddish -- a patronymic, meaning son of Lev or Leib ("Layb").

Immigration:
Emigrated from Russia via England. Boarded the SS New York in Southampton, England on March 4, 1905 and arrived at Ellis Island on March 13, 1905. The ship manifest lists him as a "butcher" (?) and says that he was going to join his brother, Max Leibowitz, 40 Canal Street, who paid for his passage.

And in the January 1920 census his age is listed as 48 (again consistent with 1873 birthdate). His age on tombstone is listed as 65 in December 1932. However, on his death certificate, his age was listed erroneously as 59, with a birthdate of December 15, 1873.

A witness, David Shaughnessy, testified that Harris Anderer [sic] had lived in the US (at least) since 1895, currently lived at 5 Jackson Street, and was a "cutter" by occupation. In the same document, the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of New York ordered that he be admitted to be a Citizen of the USA.

Notes:

According to the Latvian State Archives, the "Courland Tax Administration" notes that in 1891 he lived in Libau at Beregovaya Street in the house of Zeltaborn.

He actually left from Copenhagen, Denmark, with his wife and three youngest daughters to attend Lena's wedding. We do not know how they got to Copenhagen from Libau, Latvia. He came to America on the S.S. Hellig Olav, which left Copenhagen on August 24, 1904 and arrived in New York on September 6.

He worked as a tailor in Latvia and in New York.

Birth:
In January 1920 Census he listed his age as 87, suggesting that he was born in 1832-33. However he was not yet born when the 1834 List of Male Jews Entitled to Reside in Hasenpoth was recorded. His brother Isser, age 2 at that time, was the youngest one listed. And there was a brother David born between them. So Lazar could not have been born before 1835.
