Possibly Israel Eisen 001

Photo has been tentatively identified (by an Eisen descendent) as Israel Eisen (born ca. 1870) with his grandson Ernie (1949-1988)

Jewish Gen’s Lithuania Tax and Voters Lists database records Azriel Ayzen, son of Lipman, a smith who owned a house and had seven family members in Skuodas, 1904.

In 1921, Asrel Eisen emigrated from Skuodas to the US with five of his seven children – Benzer, 30;  Roza, 20; Meyer, 17; Ite, 16; and Sundel, 14 (www.ellisisland.org). Two daughters, Anna and Mary, had emigrated earlier.

Asrel Eisen has many descendants in the US.
