Title A name given to the resource Hi and Betty´s Marriage License and a Small Wisotsky Family Tree Description An account of the resource Witnessed by Mort Bloom (for Hi) and Marcia Wisotsky (for Betty), on February 12, 1950, Hi and Betty were married and this is the wedding license that proved it. A little Wisotsky background: Sam and Ann Cohen Wisotsky were married (in Detroit?) and had 5 children: 3 girls and 2 boys. The oldest was Irene Wisotsky Rubin (b 1925), Betty (b 12.30.1926, d. 3.17.2013) was second, and Marcia, was third. The oldest boy was Morton Wisotsky (b.1932) whom every one called Sonny, and Allen Wisotsky. Sam (born in Canada of eastern Europe, perhaps Poland roots in 1899) was a great grandfather. Barely 5´2" (and almost as wide) he was a brick layer, mason, who did some wonderful stone work, including building the fireplace in our house in Riverside, California in 1958. He loved to play pool, and said to all of his grandsons, "that he was the best boy from all the girls", or to his granddaughters, "that he was the best girl from all the boys". He was a kind man and always paid attention to his children and grand children. An interesting story was that during prohibition, while still living in Detroit, he was caught bringing boot leg liquor across one of the great lakes from Canada into the U.S. Arrested and told he had a chance to save himself if he would tell the police who were his bosses, he refused, and served time in a Federal jail. In appreciation for his silence, during the whole time he was in jail, once a week, many bags of groceries were placed at his wife´s Ann´s doorstep to take care of the family. Ann, disbursed the groceries to the other wives who went to jail with Sam. Ann was a tall woman and towered over her husband. Not nearly as gregarious as her husband, she was the boss of her household, and cooked all the meals at the Jewish Holidays. Irene married Mitchell Rubin (a contractor) and had three children, Mona )who married Fred and had one daugher), Suzanne who married Phillipe, and Dawn, who married a successful businessman in Virginia. . Marcia, who worked in retail at May Company Department store in Los Angeles, married Jimmy Reid, a tall slender man who worked for the U.S. Post Office. Jimmy was a superb bowler. They had two children Deborah and Jeff. Jeff married a lovely woman and had one child. Sonny was a multi talented man. He served in the Army in Korea. Was involved in theatre, played guitar, and later in life wrote poems. He was married twice, and had two children. He is alive at this writing, and is the last of his generation to be alive. Alan, was everybody´s favorite as a kid. Handsome, a great athlete, he ultimately married twice. He became a High School teacher and met and married a colleague, Lindy. Alan had three children, one from his first wife, and two with Lindy, Zev (who married Jinny) and a wonderful daughter who is married.
