Moshka born about 1790 in the Russian Empire, called The Pale of Settlement.  The area has had many names.  Today it is located in Moldova. The family probably lived in the Kiev area and then, as farmer colonists, moved to the town of Lyublin.  Read about the Moshka’s family history and his descendants who included Fred:  GURFINKEL 1790 Descendants
