#9 Bluner "Bella" Relkin ( Chai Yentil "Yetta" Cominsky◊ • Shmoel Shoel "Samuel" Cominsky◊ • Judah Cominsky◊ )

Other names for Bella: Belle Berger, Belle Isaacs.

Bella was born Abt 1900 in Slutsk, Russia. She died 5 Sep 1988. She was buried in Mt. Hebron Cemetery, Flushing, Queens Co., New York.

She appears on the passenger list of the ship Rijndam, which sailed from Rotterdam and arrived in New York on 11 Jun 1907 as Bluner. Her birth year is given as Abt 1900. She is listed as illiterate with dark complexion, black hair and brown eyes.

She appears on the 1910 Census of Manhattan, New York, living with her mother and siblings. This census puts her birth year as Abt 1898.

She appears on the 1920 Census of the Bronx with her mother. She was not naturalized in 1920. She was an examiner at a dress house, perhaps with her older brother, Julius. Her age on this census is consistent with the passenger list.

She appears on the 1930 Census, living with her sister, Sadie in the Bronx.

Bella is misrepresented on the 1940 Census. She is shown as a daughter of her sister, Sadie, with whom she is still living.

According to Jack Kaminsky's family tree, Bella's second husband was a Berger. There's no indication if this was someone related to Oscar or even Oscar, himself, after Sadie's death.
