Breit family

My great grandfather Ignatz Breit emigred from Russia. He is originally from the Baden Wurttenberg area. I found a connection with a Breit on the Wisenthal project picture #237 from Baranow Sandomierski. But I am having difficulty finding out exactly where this is (I think out of Krakow). Also if any of these Breits were able to leave before Hitler . Anyone with information please drop me a note . thank you, Leah

searching for any info on Andre Ignatz, went to Manitoba Canada from Hungrey with sisters Elizabeth and Bessie about 1905. Elizabeth and Bessie went to Chicago Illinois. Elizabeth was my grandmother.

Thank you
