Ancestry of my grandparents - Jenny Goodman (1881-1971) And Joe Mokobocki (1884-1981). They were born and raised in Poland, met and married in Warsaw, and then emigrated to England, Canada, and finally the US (1908). There are no Polish records of Joe's family but quite a few of Jenny's. Jenny's parents were Yankel and Shaindel (Esther) Handelsman. Yankel's parents were David Gutman and Temma Haneft. Esther's parents were David Handelsman and Perla Kava.

Pictured is the "New House", over a century old in 1917 when the Goodmans bought the farm from the original Dutch settlers. Was their Verploenck? If not what? My understanding: the Verploenck settled there in the mid-17th century. The new house replaced the original house, but the barn lasted 300 years before burning around 40 years ago.
