Oldest Person In The USA: Leah Lesczynski

From the NYTimes of 1892, courtesy of accomplished geneaologist and physical education instructor, David Priever. The obituary mentions that Leah was interned at Washington Cemetery in Parkville, Long Island. Today we call that Ocean Parkway (Parkville Avenue), Brooklyn. 143 Norfolk Street is on Norfolk (west side) between Stanton and Rivington.
