Sarah Gitel Frank was b. in Lithuania, then under Russian control. She arrived in the US in 1881 on the SS Cimbria at age 22 and married John (Zelig) Broida that same year, per 1900 census.
The family story is that John and Gitel were "rag pickers" in New York City for their first year? in the US. They then moved to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and had eight sons: John Jacob, Louis, Max, Philip Edwin, Samuel, Theodore "Dave", Morris, and Harold.
Gitel and John moved with two children to Denver, Colorado by 1900, possibly because Gitel had tuberculosis. She died in Denver in 1901, at their home, and was returned for burial to Pittsburgh.
