  Notes	Moishe Hersh did not immigrate to the U.S., though his wife, Esther ("Big Bubbe") and children did come to the US. His granddaughter, Marcelle Pollakoff London, said that he wanted to come but he was barred from receiving a visa because of cataracts. So, apparently, Esther came only after he died. His grandson, Harold Maurice Sheinaus, was named for Moishe Hersh.
