Dear Israel

The Mandel I am looking for as a starting point is Aaron Hirsch ( Aharon Herseh) and his wife Henshe/Hannah They are my Great Great grandparents, There kids are Anna, Hannah/Henshe, Sarah. All married in Debica.
Henshe/Hannah married Wolf Blazer from Sieniawa and the emigrated to USA in 'or about 1895/1900.

Wolf returned to Poland in 1900/01 to do some business, got sick and died of kidney failure at age 35 in Poland, Place of burial unknown to anyone even my Grandmother told me that she nor her mother ever knoew the place or burial for Wolf We assume he is buried in or near to his home town. His parents whose names are unkown to us must have seen to his internment.
The Mandel branch is my paternal grandmother`s maiden name.

Anyway, an interesting family story.
All my best
