      Rachel Abrahams or Abrahamson married Wolf Eifer and had a daughter Gertie Eifer in either 1912 or 1914. After Wolf's death she remarried in 1929 to Maurice Alfred Cohen (Micheal Carr). She wound have one more daughter Jacqueline B. Cohen born December 12th 1930. They would separate but not divorce sometime in the 1930s. Rachel began going by Regina Carr by the Second World War. She died on June 22 1961 at age 70 or 72 as there is some confusion as to whether she was born in 1888 or 1890. Jacqueline is my grandmother.
