From Doris Perlo Zichlin:
"Boruch Meir and his
wife Rywka Bomchel Perlo were born and lived in Lomza
until they both emigrated.
They had three children (Fiszel) Juan (1908-1991), Dora
(1911-1942?), and
David (1917-1985).
In 1925, Juan immigrated to Mexico, though he later
decided to emigrate and live in the United States. In
1935, their children David and Rywka also came to
the United States, but they could not get in and
subsequently went to Mexico.
As Boruch Meir and Juan were already in United States,
Rywka joined them while David stayed and made his life in
Mexico. In 1939, Rywka went back to Lomza to try to
persuade her daughter Dora, who was already married and
had two daughters, to come to America but she was not
successful. Dora and her entire family were murdered in
Treblinka. Rywka went back to the United States, where she
died in 1947 in Los Angeles. Boruch Meir died in Los
Angeles in 1949."
