It is much appreciated. Boris Kremen had a brother, David. The 1930 census says David was born in Poland. David's son, Nathan, was on two US ships (1940 and 1941) where he had to present his US natualization papers. There are notes on the ship's manifests indicating he was natualized in Houghton County in 1914. I'm hoping someone can take a look at the naturalization papers for any of these siblings and find where in Poland this family came from before they relocated to Odessa. I'm trying to tie this family to my grandfather's Kremen family and so far I haven't found the link I'm sure is out there somewhere!
