#4 Rossen "Nathan" Relkin ( Avram "Nathan" Relkin )

Nathan was born 1901 in Slutsk, Russia. He died 21 Jul 1950. He was buried in Mt. Hebron Cemetery, Flushing, Queens Co., New York.

He appears on the passenger list of the ship Rijndam, which sailed from Rotterdam and arrived in New York on 11 Jun 1907 as Rossen. His birth year is given as Abt 1902. He is listed as illiterate with dark complexion, black hair and brown eyes.

He appears on the 1910 Census of Manhattan, New York, living with his mother and siblings.

He appears on the 1920 Census of the Bronx with his mother. He was not naturalized in 1920. He was a tailor, perhaps with his older brother, Julius.

I haven't found Nathan on the 1930 or 1940 Census.
