Abraham Rudowitz (1890-1930) immigrated to the United States from Russia in 1908. In 1915, Rudowitz married Fannie Papish (1893-1970), who immigrated to the United States from Russia in 1910. The couple had one child, Evelyn (1915-1996), who would go on to marry Dr. Sol Neidich (1913-1996). In 1916, the Rudowitzes opened a cobbler/shoe store/clothier business at 802 Bay Street in Beaufort. After Abraham died in 1930, Fannie went into business with Dr. Sol Neidich’s father, Morris Neidich.
