Ronald French asked Lisa Sachs:

I have just chatted to your daughter, Brina on the non-fiction part of Goodreads. I have published a non-fiction book Odessa 1919 based on Odessa 100 years ago. It tells of the chaos in South Russia at the end of WW I and the Russian revolution. Do you think we might have something in common as my mother was born in Odessa? You can contact me at ronaldfrench1919@icloud.com

Lisa Sachs I'm sure we have something in common in having an interest in tracing our roots. I have to say that you have been more successful than I have been. I started with few clues and no relatives who could make my investigation any easier. Good luck with your search. I am still working on mine.
