Isadore Koonan immigrated to the United States in the mid-1920s. He went to set up a butcher shop and establish a home for his pregnant wife, Anna, and infant son, Larry. Anna did not have a set way to leave, so it was decision of Isadore’s brother, Nisan, to give his ticket to the US to Anna so that she could join Isadore and unite the family. This twist of fate is what would lead Nisan to then travel and settle in Argentina, starting a family line that would remain strong at first, but would eventually taper off a little as the branches spread out.

According to a cousin in Argentina, they’d all heard the story of “The Pregnant Lady.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
