Talk:Kaplan (surname)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Our name is Koplen. Our family has lived in Virginia and the south since the late 1800s. Our great-grandfather, Max Koplen, immigrated through NYC, then settled in Virginia. As often happened, two brothers were in Europe. One, Max, came to the US and was intending to bring the other over when finances allowed. They lost contact and never reunited. We have been looking ever since. About 15 years ago, we found a clan of Koplen's in Texas who were not Jewish. We tried to find the common ancestor but have not been able to. There are only about 120 Koplens in the US as far as Social Security records show. Don Koplen Boulder, Colorado
