Reply To: Does anyone know the answer to this question?

Itche: I do not know about Sephardim. I do know about the Rappeport family but there are very few of them who still actually have a Shtar and I was told by some prominent Rabbonim that the Meyuchasim in the family and their Shtaros were lost in the Holocaust. It’s entirely possible that I (or they) have been misinformed because much of this is just what people hear. If some still have Shtaros then I will take back what I said.
