ASIMOV, Mendel^[1]

Abt 1850 - 1916  (66 years)

• Name	ASIMOV, Mendel
  Birth	Abt 1850	Petrovichi, Russia
  Gender	Male
  Death	1916	Russia
  Notes	Mendel was the youngest of 12 children of Abraham Ber and his first wife, and the only one of his siblings to survive infancy, according to the written recollections of his grandson, Judah (Jack) Asimov, 1896-1969. In his recollections, Judah writes that although Mendel was "not a scholar," neither was he ignorant of Jewish reading and prayer -- only of the Talmud. Yet he was clever, and was elected several times to the "Society of Psalm of David Sayers." He also was in the Chevro-Kadisho, a volunteer group that took care of holy burials. Mendel's decision would prevail if there were disagreements in burial location, as there often were.
