My grandmother’s sister emigrated from Belarus with her new husband, Moshe Rabinowitz, relocating in Rhodesia. Her name was Esther and their children included Jack, Hymie, and Sarah. Sarah married Bill Margolis. I also know that Hymie changed the last name to Robbins. Wondering if there is a connection.
