I'm looking for information on Shmuel Lewin (or Levin) of Johannesburg,
South Africa. I have an old undated letter from him, written in Yiddish
to his Uncle Max Levine in the Bronx, New York. It may have been written
in the late 1940s as Max died in 1951.

Max and my grandfather Sam Levine were brothers from Novogrudak, Belarus.
Other siblings in the US were Mary (Mirke Dushke) Lubin, Nathan and Joseph
Levine. There were five other brothers and sisters in my grandfather's
generation, but they did not come to the US.

Shmuel's address was 114 North Ave, Bez Valley North, Johannesburg.
Also mentioned in the letter was Cyla and her children.

If anyone can shed any light on this Shmuel please contact me privately.
