The Markovitz      The Frames        The Marks

Also known as Markowitz and Marcovici (conflicting reports from different
relatives). Hermann Marcovitz and Pauline (also known as Paula and nicknamed
Pepe) Rosenthal immigrated separately to the U.S. from Yasse, Romania at the
beginning of the 20th century. They met and married in Key West, Florida.

Herman Marks are at left. Young Paul is sitting crosslegged at center

sister Rose. Patriarch Jacob Markovitz is behind him. Also pictured

by name are Izzie (Isadore) Marks, Kate Marks, and Bertha Wall (who
married one of the many Markovitz' brothers)
