  • Notes 
    • (Research):Sometime around the beginning of October 1996, I had asked my grandfather, Hurley Silbor, Sr., if he had any knowledge of where he came from. He stated he was a ward of the State of Massachussetts and was never adopted. He told me that he knew very little about his past.
      He told me that he had tried for years to gain this same information, but had no luck. I contacted the Department of Social Services for the State of Massachusetts to gain knowledge of my grandfather's parents. They would not relinguish any information to me on this matter, as he was still alive. He had to request the information himself. I got a name for a point of contact in Boston, MA. He then contacted the person that I told him about and on October 21, 1996 she called him on the phone and told him that his father was Russian, was Jewish, was a boxer and was killed. They also told him that his mother was English. They ended by saying that there were going to research it further. Over the following several weeks, he received his past in the mail, a past truly to be proud of.
