I'm currently looking at my grandmother's family tree. It begins with Grand Rabbi Turshenitski from Kiev, USSR and his wife Sarah. I don't know if this part's relevant, but their daughter Rachel emigrated to the States (Los Angeles) in 1906 and changed her last name to Shapiro, and married Morris Kessler. Anyway, I noticed a couple small errors on the family tree (with spelling and I think some dates), so I'm wondering if Turshenitski is the correct spelling. Is it Russian? If so, how would it be written in the Russian alphabet? Or is it Ukranian? What is the proper spelling?
