Classification: Immigration
Surnames: Oschsman, Oxman, Axman
Abraham Ochsman immigrated from Qubynsky, Russia in 1907, arriving at Ellis Island on June 26 . He was 32 at the time. His ship of travel, the Caronia, departed from Liverpool. His manifest line number was 0001. If Abraham were Bernard's father, Abraham would have been around 45 at the time of his youngest son's birth. I recall Bernard stating that is father was around 56 when he died of bronchitis or some lung ailment. If Abraham Oshsman was Bernard's father, Abraham's two oldest sons, Jack and Nat, modified their surname to "Axman", while the two youngest, Louis and Bernard, called themselves "Oxman". During the early 1980s, I remember my uncle Nat describing his experiences in Bolshevik Russia as a teenager. He would therefore have traveled to the US after 1917, possibly 1919, implying that Abraham lived in the New York area for approximately 12 years prior to his wife (Minerva?) and children arriving.
