Hi Bill & hsccol

We've just discovered that Grandma's maiden name was Oxman or Ochsmann, not Osman as we've always thought so I'm really excited to find your postings, especially Bill's. Grandma was Sarah Faigel Ochsmann, daughter of Avraham Mendel & Frieda Ochsmann. I believe he was a furrier and they lived in Starokonstantinoff in the Ukraine. Sarah was born in 1875, married very young (Nathan Bradman, earlier Brandman),came to the UK & had a large family. We know that her brother Wolf came to visit her here in 1903 to break the news that her mother had died. Sarah herself died in 1953. Please email me at family.regan@btinternet.com if you have any related information to share. Many thanks

Bill, I might have some information that is useful. My family came from Demydivka which is close to Dubno, and also from Radzivillow (less than 20 miles away, and Beresteczko, about 10 mines away, all of which are located in what is now the Ukraine. My grandfather was named Ochsman and first came to the US in 1904. again in 1914,and very likely at other times, as he visited his family back in what is now the Ukraine. Please feel free to contact me.

I believe we are related. My cousins and I are putting together a family tree and would love to hear from any of Abraham Axman/Oxman's descendants.

Abraham Ocksman (later Axman) brought my grandmother, Sarah Frankel (nee Geller) to the U.S. in 1914. She was his niece as he was my great-grandmother, Brancia's, brother.
I believe that Abraham had 4 sons. I remember meeting the oldest, Jack Oxman as a child and there was also a Nat Axman. I met Abraham's wife Menicha (Minerva)at my grandmother's house too when she was a very old lady. The family came from Demidowka in present-day Ukraine. They lived in Brooklyn.

In the 1880 census, John father's place of birth is listed as England, so he is likely to be one of the English Oxmans rather than the Russian / Polish Oxmans.

Re: OXMAN, Clarence N. in Oregon

daveoxman — 2006-08-21 17:15:57Z

Are you sure it is Clarence N Oxman and not Clarence H Oxman?
There was a Clarence H Oxman (b 11 Mar 1868 in Illinois) who lived in Malheur Co, Oregon and died in Jamieson (dont know where that is) in 1933 and was buried in Ontario Oregon. He had a wife Hannah. Dont know when or where she died.

His brother Frank C Oxman lived in Baker Co Oregon and had a wife Clara and two daughters Hannah & Ruth born 1905 & 1907. Have no further details on wife and daughters.

There is supposedly somewhere called Oxman in the area - somewhere along I-84 about 23 miles SE of Baker City.

I dont know of any other Oxmans who lived in the area.

I am transcribing the Evergreen Cemetary in Ontario, Malheur Co., Oregon and thought I would post pictures of the Pre-1900 headstones for those interested in having them. This is a very large cemetary, there is a possibility there could be other family members buried here after this time period. If you are interested in them, I can look for them specifically.

brucegorby — 2006-04-01 06:36:06Z

I don't have too much information, but I have some. Perhaps we can pool resources since I'm probably looking for the same pair. Chajem Oxman left Liverpool Jan 27th 1904 and arrived Philadelphia Feb 10, 1904 on the SS Westernland. His stated purpose was to join his brother Elmer Ochsman in Philly. Mindel Oksman Left Liverpool Sep 28, 1904 arriving Philly Oct 8, 1904 on the SS Haverford. Her stated purpose was to join her husband. Both had children with them on the voyage and the address they were going to 734 Spring Garden, Philly, PA was the same. I believe these two were my Wife's great grandparents. They resided in Union, NJ until at least 1920. Please contact me if this is your line or you have further information.

Uruguay Oxmans

tiramisudeluna — 2005-05-24 21:40:57Z

my ggf came from Russia (still working on the town). His name was Samuel Oxman:
born 1889 in Russia
Manhattan resident
immigrated to the US in 1909
father: Bennie Oxman
mother: Rosie Oxman

The story goes that a number of other family couldn't make it into the US and so they went to Uruguay to escape Russia.

Re: OXMAN FAMILY

2005-03-30 08:05:36Z

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.

John, the name "Oxman" is a spelling adaptation and traces its origin generally from the Russina/Polish border..

Julie, my second cousin, Jody, is the great grand daughter of Abraham Oxman. Receiving a scholarship, she has visited Russia and studied the language. If you provide the names of any Oxmans that you know, she might be able to provide you with information.

Re: oxman

2004-01-10 04:46:10Z

Bridget, You could not have known more pure of souls than your second cousin Sandra and her husband Hal. Sandras wisdom astounded all; she had the virtue of understanding at a deep level and with humility. We had an unconditional kinship. Hal's magnanimous disposition and sharp wit won him many friends. Their daughter is a conteder for Oxford. Peter is a genuine, intelligent person who is happily married.

Other cousins are alive and well. I have known the Oxman side of the family for over 25 years.

But speaking of immediate family, your cousin Caitlin is a very talented writer who is winning national awards awards.

I'm not sure of the source of your information, but it's not exactly correct. Some of the brothers used the name Oxman, some Axman. Abraham died more than 20 years before 1965. Bernard's mother was 84 when she died, ardoun 1963-4.

Family abounds around you. But time passes quickly and opportunity is lost because of ill-founded myths. You will never know those who pass away. Seek and you shall find.

Re: oxman

2003-11-08 17:08:57Z

Bridgit, I do not know if you will read this or not since your post was way back in 2000. Anyway, I was wondering whether you were related to either Diana Oxman, Poullette Oxman (unless her name has changed during marrige), Courtney Oxman, Eva Oxman, or my father Byron Oxman.
The reason I was wondering this is because I knew one of them had a daughter named Bridget and I thought it was a heck of a coincidence.

wweintraub — 2002-11-22 01:49:16Z

Hi, My Oxman family originally spelled our name as Ochsmann. I recently located the entry of my gr grandmother coming to the US in 1896 on the Ellis Island site. Although she married 3 times her death certificate lists her maiden name as Oxman.

Several other family members changed to Oxman as well. There was one cousin (a nephew of my gr grandmother) who was a funeral director in New York City. The funeral home was called Blum & Oxman. He, of course, buried some family members.

My gr grandmother was Beila, her mother was Frieda and her father was Abraham. She had a brother Arron and Wolf or Velvel. Plus I think another brother.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi! My grandfather is Charles Oxman. He is buried in Mt. Hebron in Queens. My mother is Selma (his daughter). She is living. My grandfather Charles died in 1982 in Queens. He fought in WWll in France--part of the Lost Batalion. He came here from Russia. I have heard there are family members still living in Russia with a different spelling of the name, some are still alive and one may be a doctor. I believe he came from the Ukraine. My grandfather settled in the Bronx near Yankee Stadium. He married Hannah Cynamon (may have been changed to Anna Zinamon) from Warsaw. My cousin Larry Oxman lives in NY. Any more info we can put together would be great.
