 From: Alan Tapper <sabaalan@comcast.net>

I am looking for any descendants of Gabriel MENDELOVICH from either
Slonim or Byten. Gabrile was born between 1850 to 1870. I am told
that some of his descendants may have survived Shoah and that they
may have emigrated either to the US or Israel. I do know that some
of them stayed in Byten and are listed in the Byten Yizkor Book.
Gabriel had four brothers, one of which is my wife's great
grandfather. His father was Schmuel Meyer MENDELOVICH
(MENDELEWICZ). His youngest brother was Naphtali who lived in
Slonim. Some of Naphtali's family, when they emigrated to Israel,
changed the name to BEN MENACHEM. This may have been true for
Gabriel as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
