Talk:Abraham Moskowitz

new info received directly from descendant of Moskowitz; attempting to source it
I was contacted by a descendant of Abraham Moskowitz who let me know I had some things wrong in the article. In summary: Of course, I cannot cite this descendent directly but it does help me seek out the correct info. So far I was able to find better documentation on Ancestry now that I know his death date, family members and day job. Some other things on this list will have to be documented somewhere before I can add them.--Dan Carkner (talk) 16:49, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
 * He is 100% certain he died on valentines day 1956 and thinks he was age 78 at the time
 * almost sure born in 1878
 * thought he probably emigrated to US in 1900 and not 1913 as I had it before
 * worked for smaller records companies before Columbia (could not recall names)
 * recorded around 44 songs in total as far as he knew
 * masters of recordings were sent to YIVO institute in NYC
 * abe had 2 children - son died of leukemia as a teen, only daughter Rebecca Moskowitz had descendants
 * Sadie Moskowitz- Abe's wife (nee Raden - born in Russia) - may have come at age 10 in 1900
 * no relation to Joseph Moskowitz
 * Abraham also worked as a tailor - was a lifelong member of the workman's circle (arbeter ring)- apparently buried in their plots but this descendent could never find it
