ArchivesAnother Austrian Name Question
Hi,
I've discovered some interesting information about my genealogy and have a few more name questions...
What can you tell me about the name Pescha? She is listed as Juda's wife and in a later census is listed as Pauline? Is Pescha a Jewish or Yiddish name?
Also, a girl name Malka immigrated and we have no more records of her. It's possible that she died, but there is a girl in the family of the same age named Bessie one year and Beatrice in the following census. Is there any possible connection between Malka and Bessie/Beatrice, or is it more likely a randomly chosen "English" name?
Thanks,
Sara
