View a piece of the ships manifest for Gleich/Glick. He is shown on the first line, with his wife "Maria". It states he was born in Lyuban, Russia, which is very close to Minsk. Under health it says good for both of them but the person reviewing the docs also wrote on his, "senility". Senility is also noted in his obituary notice.
The full document is here for better viewing, and a map of Lyuban, Russia is below.

Above: They came on the White Star Line, and from reading the brochure it was indeed more luxurious than the Red Star Line that many of our other relatives came on. It had no steerage as did Red Star.
1925 Iowa State Census: confirmation for the name Abba. Book 191 lines 62 thru 66. Shows Celia Glick and family living at 1604 Villa Ave, Sioux City IA. The name shown for Celia's father is Abe Glick. All the children are listed and Celia's husband is shown as Ben Kaplan.
The Glicks were apparently taken care of by various family members as a search of the Sioux City directories shows the following addresses for them:
- 1910 census shows Abraham Glick, Mary and Celia Glick living with Barney, Mary, Anna, Freda, Herman, Gertrude, Myron, and young Herman living together.
- 1913 shows Abraham Glick and wife Mary living with Myer and Gertrude Shiloff at 814 W 8th street.
- 1914 shows Abraham Glick and wife Mary living with Celia and Ben Kaplan at 1216 W 19th Street.
- 1915 shows Abraham Glick living with still Celia and Ben Kaplan at 1216 W 19th Street and Mary is not shown. The absence of Mary tends to confirm the reading on her gravestone as 28 July 1914 being the date of death.
- 1916 shows Abraham Glick still living with Celia and Ben Kaplan at 1216 W 19th Street and again Mary is not shown.
- 1917 shows Abraham has moved back with Myer and Gertrude Shiloff at 1115 W 6th Street.
- 1925 Iowa State Census shows Abraham living with Esther and Abe Rudin.

Waiting on documentation that shows an older Dina Baron who died in 1910 who's maiden name is Daskovsky and was married to a Baron. The document is really a coroners listing which states her fathers name is Edward Dachkowsky, and she was married to an S. Baron, and that she died of pneumonia and asthma on March 22, 1910.
Found a 1940 census from Sioux City where the Myer, Gertrude, and Marion are living with Ed and Daisy Baron who are noted as "lodgers". They are living at 511 25th St.

Celia was later re-married. She married Nathan Lerman on April 14, 1935 in Sioux City, Iowa. They both died in the same year (1976) in Omaha, Nebraska and are both buried at Pleasant Hill Cemetery.

Found an immigration document for Minnie at age 11 in "Soo" City, and for Abe Rudin also living in "Soo City" which states his occupation as a Fish Peddler. Most other documents simply say he was a peddler.

Edward (Avade) Rudin was born circa 1901 in Russia. He died January of 1969. Edward married Florence Cecile Livingston of Sioux Falls, South Dakota October 15, 1924 in Sioux Falls, Minnehaha, South Dakota. Their marriage doc is here.

Notes for Edward: Petition for Naturalization signed 8 March 1921 shows place of birth as Zhitomer Russia, sailed from Antwerp Belgium, arrived Ellis Island 31 March 1907. There is some mention of an honorable discharge, so, maybe he had served in the USA military. Also he states he was born on 17 March 1899 in Zhitomer Russia. (On the ship Celtic sailing from Liverpool England on 6 April 1906 arriving in New York on 16 April 1906 Edward's name is shown as Avade age five, here is the manifest ).
The 1925 Iowa census shows Edward Rudin age 26 and Wife Florence age 25. Place of birth shown for Ed is Russia and Florence is Sioux Falls, Minnehaha South Dakota. Fathers names are; Abraham Rudin born in Russia and Felix Livingston age 54 born in Russia. Mothers shown are Esther Glick born in Russia and Augusta Bodenheimer age 51 born in Germany.

Edward and Florence had the following children:
My cousins who knew Ed made these comments:
Anita Shapiro said she went to a month long seminar for journalism students in the summer of 1958 in Evanston Illinois. Ed lived in Chicago, picked her up at the airport took her to a restaurant and got her settled at the university. He picked her up when she was ready to return home and took her to the airport. She says he was a very nice person and her mother said nice things about him.
Jean Slutsky said Ed was her favorite cousin. He came to see them in Sioux City from Chicago and brought treats. "He was kind and generous. He had the first air conditioned car I had ever seen."

Found a photo of Barbara at Purdue University.
Hirschal (Harry) Rudin, born circa 1902 in Russia and died in Mobile, AL on Feb. 2, 1952. Harry Rudin married Essie Hoffman in Tulsa, Oklahoma April 3, 1928. The marriage doc is here. We've found several documents and census reports with his occupation stated as a window trimmer or works in "displays". It would likely be called a window dresser now.
1930 Oklahoma census shows Harry as a Window Trimmer and Essie working in an oil office.
1933 Oklahoma directory listing for the Rudin's.
