Historic Information About Family: 

From Albany-Democrat Herald, 7-29-1980 – ” (Lee) Rohrbough knew many Jewish families. He used to deliver the newspaper to the ‘Brenner sister,’ who lived on Third Avenue. They often spoke of their ‘Uncle (Julius) Gradwhol,’ an Albany businessman. The sisters inherited property from their father, Benjamin, a merchant, and the uncle. Fannie died in 1965 and Lillie in 1973. Both are buried in the cemetery near their parents, their sisters and the uncle.”
