A family story is that the three sisters offered to buy tickets for their siblings to come to America.   The siblings said they wanted to stay, but because they were poor they would like the money instead, which was sent to them. It is assumed that the siblings and any offspring they had perished in the Holocaust.  The sisters were unable to find them after WWII.
