He apparently has a number of photos of Rabbi Gordon and his wife. If anyone is interested, when I receive them, I can forward them to you if you send me your email address.

I did know that Rivka (Rebecca) was married to Louis Kalmanowitz and I have been in touch with one of their descendants. Also, to be perfectly honest, I am Amy Gordon, not Mr. Gordon. I didn't change my name when I married - I felt very connected to the name Gordon - it seemed important to me. My father, born Albert Rabinowitz, son of Benjamin, son of Phillip, changed his name back to Gordon as a young adult trying to be accepted into a special wartime program that had "Jewish" quotas and felt that Gordon did not sound as Jewish as Rabinowitz.

I am knee deep in family geneology and am wondering if anyone can provide me with more information on Rabbi Gordon (I have also been to gravesite). I was unaware of any of his siblings, but I know he had at least three daughters and at least one son (my grandfather's father). Any information would be greatly appreciated.

My research is nearly complete. If anyone has any photographs of Lake Narocz around 1930-1939, I would appreaciate you getting in touch. I have plenty of documentary material - but no pictures.
