im not your aunt cuz I dont have married nieces or nephews Smile

does that feel safer? lol
and this piece of info also narrows down quite a bit whose child I am.....

I narrowed you down to either the monsey cousins or the B family. Or Chaim’s but I see you wrote you were 10 when hershel passed away so I think that leaves it to the top 2 mentioned
Lol Very Happy

Ooh so curious

No, the Baba mishket was just named mishket.
There are some mishket esthers becuase the baba mishket was mishket bas esther. But don't know of nay sura mishket.
There is one other family that I know has the name mishket (moshkovich) maybe they have sura mishkets?

My cousin and her husband are both einikels.

We were on a trip together and went to their matzeiva.

That was not me but dh and I are also both related.
And the baba Raizel I was referring to was his wife, I believe.
I guess there wasn't just 1 baba Raizel.
