David and Yetta (nee Wasserman) Walter Family ca 1939. Clockwise from upper left: Jean Walter Sturm, Sam Sturm, Helen Walter Garfinkel, Jack Wadler, Sopie Walter Wadler, Ralph Walter, Yetta Wasserman Walter and David Walter.

Yetta Wasserman Walter in Poland ca 1920 upper left with her sister-in-la, Ruchel Walter,ad her children Sophie Walter Wadler and Jean Walter Sturm (standing on the chair).

This branch of our family has a geographical origin in towns which include Warsaw Poland and those near to it. David Walter and Yetta Wasserman were married there Nov 1914. David lived in Warsaw and Yetta was from Zwolen, a shtetl with a significant Jewish population about 50 miles away. It is interesting that David's brother Jankel (Jacques) Walter married Yetta's sister Sara Wasserman. David's family emigrated to New York in 1923 and 1924 but Jankel Walter's family emigrated to France. Today the family remains split geographically but remains in contact.
