    1. HELP! KAPLAN / GILLBERG
    2. Jamie Freitas
    3. Hello All - I have come across a new surname of a g-grand parent: KAPLAN, Zelda, b. @1873 Birth location, unknown. Suspect Russia/Poland. Married Abraham Gallant. Lived in Missouri. Another odd situation is the surname GILLBERG - which also appears from my g-grand parent. (listed below) We had believed this to be of Russian/Polish origin, however, I am finding out it is a rather common Sweedish name. Any input here? Below, I have listed surnames which connect to hers.
