Genners,

This town name appears in a couple of records for one Morris Greenbaum
(Revere, MA) and I've been unable to track it down. One census says
Morris born in Germany while another says Russia-Poland. I ran it on
JewishGen as **fuzziest** and up came Dabie, Poland. He naturalized
**very** early, ergo ,no town/shtetl listed. I've done a Google search
to no avail. Suggestions please.

Could it be Gombin? Gombin (Gabin) is about 100km west of Warsaw, and I have
come across a variety of anglicised spellings for it in UK documents, including
Gombien. Could it be a handwriting thing? We have a Grynbaum family in
Gombin in the 1920s, although they do not appear to be in the Book of Residents
from the late 19C. Do you have any other information you could share - such as
what records do you have, when did he emigrate, do you have names of other
family members?

Best wishes,
