Leiser died relatively young in 1915 according to note from his son Zalman that includes his photo and date of death. His sons immigrated to the USA a few years beforehand. In a 1917 world war I draft his son Abraham said he was supporting his mother, and didn't mention a father, and that's because the father had already been dead by then. His son Ben named his own son Leonard after his father Leiser. Leonard was born around 1918. Ben referred to his father as Leonard in the SSN application (an American version of Leiser which is actually Eliezer).
I'm quite sure that Leiser and Abraham were brothers. Both were living in Nezhin and born around the same years, and Leiser's son Abraham (Albert) and Abraham's son Hirsch (Henry) were living together in St. Marks 1641 in New York in the 1925 NY census, which surely indicates they were cousins. Henry's daughter Zelda visited the Sheinkin's in Bnei Atarot, Israel (Tami still remembers her). Because I know Abraham's father was Iosel, that makes the name of the father of Leiser, Iosel.
Another reason why I think Leiser and Abraham were brothers is that Leiser's son Ben and Abraham's son Mendel immigrated to the USA together on the same ship, and both were going to their aunt Beila in Bristol Street 52. I suspect this Beila could have been sister to Leiser and Abraham, living in the USA at the time (before Oct 17 1911) when the two cousins immigrated). Two other cousins, Hirsh and Abraham, also immigrated together, see below.
Overview of situation:
Abraham's sons
Mendel immigrated oct 17 1911 on ship Birma with cousin Ben
Hirsh immigrated mar 4 1913 on ship Czar wish cousin Abraham
Samuel: didn't find him on Ellis Island
Leiser's sons
Ben immigrated oct 17 1911 on ship Birma with cousin Mendel
Abraham immigrated March 4 1913 on ship Czar with cousin Hirsh.
Zalman immigrated on his own june 26 1914 on ship President Lincoln
In 1925 NY census, Hirsh (Henry) and Ben and their families were living together, even though these two did not immigrate together.
These families were close. Hence Zelda (daughter of Henry) was close to her cousin Arthur (son of Ben).
