He thought his family was wiped out in the Holocaust
Then he discovered 75,000 distant relatives

RALPH CILEVITZ will relate the story of how he discovered new connections and relatives.

There are over 75,000 descendants of the same man, Aba Kukla, who lived in a tiny shtetl in Lithuania in the late 1700s. His nine children went on to produce large families of their own, creating a sprawling family tree that, only now, with the advent of DNA testing, can be fully visualized.
