(Research):The B'nai Abraham and Yehuda Laib Family Society website, founded in Baltimore in 1901 by relatives of Yehuda Laib Romm and Rabbi Abraham Abramson, and believed to be the oldest Jewish Family society in the world. They held their 115th anniversary reunion on Labor Day weekend 2016. Tillie Levine, Mamie Yatovitz, Rachel Silver Snovsky and Henna Ginsburg became members in 1912.

B'nai Abraham and Yehuda Laib Family Society membership and its associated family tree revolves around a woman named Rella Krok, who was born about 1833. Her father, Laibe Krok, was born in 1800. Laibe and his wife Rachel Krok lived in the tiny hamlet of Tselkay / Celkiai, just south of Rokisik / Roki?kis, a town in an area which today is in the northeastern part of the Republic of Lithuania. In the 1800s, the area was first in the Vilna Gubernya (province) and then in the Kovno Gubernya of the Russian Empire. Prior to 1795, the area was part of the Commonwealth of Poland and Lithuania. There is evidence that Laibe Krok's ancestors lived in this area at least as early as 1760.

The family tradition states that Laibe and Rachel "were good citizens, religious in their observance of Mosaic Law, and liberal in their outlook on life. Laibe Krok was a wine merchant and the owner of a distillery. He was a philanthropist of no mean repute."

Rella was one of Laibe and Rachel's six children. In 1847 Rella married Yehuda Laib Romm of Ponidel / Pandelys. Yehuda Laib was a widower with one child, Mari Leah Romm. Yehuda Laib and Rella had seven children together. After the death of Yehuda Laib, Rella married Rabbi Abraham Abramson, who was a sofer in Rakisik and a nephew of Yehuda Laib's first wife. Abraham was a widower who had had seven children with his first wife, Chana Brina. Upon marrying Abraham, Rella was the mother or step-mother of a total of fifteen children.

Rella and Abraham Abramovitz were recorded in the 1897 All-Russia Census as living on Kamai street (today, Respublikos gatve) in Rakisik. Fourteen years after they married, Rella died and Abraham came to America . According to family tradition, Abraham had served Roki?kis as Chief Rabbi for 25 years before coming to America.

As of the BAYL's 100th Anniversary, in 2001, the family tree, tracing the descendants of Rella and her siblings and the descendants of her two husbands from their first marriages, spanned nine generations over more than 200 years, contained more than 3200 names. Today, descendants live in many of the United States, as well as in Australia, Canada, England, Israel, and South Africa.

Rachel married Reuven "Reuben" Levine before 1896 in Russia. Reuven was born on 15 Feb 1870 in Ponevezh, Kovno Gubernia, Russian Empire; died on 28 Jun 1949; was buried in Bnai Israel Congregation Cemetery, Baltimore, Baltimore City, Maryland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

According to Geni, Son of Shlomo Savilevics and Etta Devorah Romm
Husband of Anna Savilevics
Father of Mary Smith; Rebecca Smith; Sol Smith; Jack J Smith and Bertha Smith
Brother of Celia Shapiro; Hyman Smith; Simon Smith and Ruchel Minna Levine

One of Rella's children with Yehuda Laib Romm was Etta Devayra Romm, who married Shlomo Zavilevitz (Savilevics) and lived in Kupisik (Kupi?kis '96 "koo-PISH-kis"). Their son Zanvil Zavilevitz (Savilevics) was born in Kupisik and was sent at a young age, probably around 12, to Riga (today, the capital of Latvia) to learn be a capmaker. When Zanvil's apprenticeship ended, he went to live with his grandmother Rella and her second husband in Rakisik. Zanvil's sister, Zlata Zavilevitz (Savilevics), who was also born in Kupisik, also went to live with Rella and Abraham Abramovitz.

Zanvil moved to Baltimore, probably around 1899, and changed his name to Myer Smith. Shortly afterward, he founded the BAYL family society.

http://bayl.org/family-story/where-did-our-ancestors-live/

In 1910, Myer, his wife Annie, and children Mary, Rebecca, Saul and Bertha were residing on Rogers Ave in Baltimore, wehre Meyer was a grocery store keeper on his own account. Both parents were shown as born in Russia, to Russian parents. They had been married once, for nine years.

When he registered for the draft during World War I, he and his wife Anna were residing at 133 Jackson Place in Baltimore, and he was secretary and treasurer of the Batto Candy & Tobacco Co of Baltimore. He was of medium height and build, with dark brown eyes and partly bald.

In 1920, they still lived on Jackson Streeet, and both were shown as born in Russia, with Yiddish as their native toungue. He was listed as secretary of a candy company. His date of immigration was shown as 1900, and hers as 1889. Both were naturalized citizens.

In 1930, the family was on Brookfield Avenue in Baltimore, and Myer was a Candy Wholesaler.

In 1940, the family was still living on Brookfield Avenue, and 80 year old Rose Rubin, a widow and Myer's mother-in-law was living with them. She was shown as born in Russia. Myer, now widowed, was shown as a salesman. His highest grade completed was Elementary, third grade. All his children still in the home had graduated from High School, with so Sol a college graduate and physician.

He was said to be the founder of the B'nai Abraham and Yehuda Laib Family Society in Baltirmore.

In those days, everybody was a "koptson" but each did what he could to help those still in Europe. Soon, Myer Smith's affinity for leadership began to assert itself. Deeply concerned in the welfare of all his kin, he arranged passage and visas for those who had no means of their own and met the costs with Bank Loans underwritten by himself and a few other interested persons. He was married to Anna RUBIN, and their flat at 117 Front Street, became the Sunday evening rendezvous of the family while he collected five cents a week from as many relatives as could contribute and, in that way, he paid off the loans. His confidante and great friend was Uncle Max Romm, whom he consulted on every matter and whose sound opinion and liberal viewpoint he valued very highly.

By 1904, it was decided that these impromptu, weekly meetings ought to have formal status, and in May of that year, our family held its first called meeting in the home of Yankel and Rocha Nessa Abramson Rubin at 1013? Low Street in Baltimore. From that day on, Baltimore has been the focal point of this Society. There is some variance of opinion as to date, for there are a few who say that the Sunday of Chol-hamoed Pesach, April 1905, was when the Farein was formally organized. Be that as it may, the minutes of January 14, 1934 include the following sentence: "es is dightlich bashtimdt givoren dos unzer Farein is organizert givoren in May 1904." We are told that those who gathered together on that memorable evening were Rocha Nessa and Yankel Rubin, Becky and Max Romm, Celia Smith, Anna and Myer Smith, Albert Schwartzberg, Zacharia Rosen and Rubin Levine. Since no records have been found of those early days, we can only relate what we have learned from those who "remember" and appreciate how satisfying for them was the process of organizing.

Zanvil married Anna Rubin about 1901. Anna was born about 1878 in Russian Empire; died on 10 Sep 1938; was buried in Anshe Emunah Aitz Chaim Cemetery, Baltimore County, Maryland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
