This tree is still growing. There are several people researching this name from the same area of Romania. I expect that this tree will be greatly expanded as soon as we can all figure out how we are related. I have seen a few other spelling variations on the spelling of the Yurowitz name including Jurowitz. As far as I can figure, Jurowitz was probably the original spelling of the name. There is a branch of the family that went to Argentina before W.W.I. If you know anything about them, PLEASE contact me.
