Notes - Yiddish name was Frima. Her grandchildren called her Little Bubbie.
Two different ages for Fannie appear on her death certificate: 79 and 81. Of course, this was filled out by husband Abraham Sheinaus, who has since proven how little appreciation he had for consistent and realistic dates.
Let's assume that Abraham was born around 1860 (which would make his age at death 97).
If Fannie were 81, she would have been born around 1868.
If Fannie were 79, she would have been born around 1870.
The passenger list of the Anchoria on which she immigrated with her mom, Rose Adler Orel, and daughter “Ester,” 7, and son “Pinkas” (Louis/Foff), 1 month, arrived July 24, 1893 and lists her as 26 years old — meaning she was born around 1867.
