His aunt paid for his ticket. He was never in the USA before.
He will be joining his aunt, Beila Scheifank at Bristol Street 52,
Brookly, NY

He was born in Neshin, Russia.

The aunt is also an aunt of Ben's brother, Zalman who is Tami's grandmother. Her first name Beila is clear, but the last name is not, this Scheifank was a misspelling/mispronunciation of Lefant. Together with Ben, Mendel (his cousin) immigrated to the US on the same ship on the same day. Mendel was going to his aunt Beila too, but her last name was given by him as Beila Lefant on the same address of 52 Bristol Street... I found this Beile Lefant from Nezhin immigrating to the USA so the research continues...

In 1925 NY state census, we have in house number 1641:
St. Marks
Henry Shaynkin (misspelled Shyankin)
Head, age 34 (born about 1891) in Russia. Occupation is drugs.
Does that mean pharmacy?
Number of years in USA: 13
Ida Shaynkin
Wife, age 28 (born about ) in Russia.
Number of years in USA: 20
Zelda Shaynkin
Daughter, age 2, born in USA
Then in same house we have
Head, Benny Shaynkin
32 years old, Russia, occupation: photography
Wife, Shaynkin Minnie, 32 years old, Russia,

The conclusion from the fact that Ben and Henry were living together
is that they were very likely first cousins. We know they were not brothers
because their father names were different but both came from Nezin.

      Federal census takers were asked to record information about every person who was in each household on the census day. A census taker might have visited a house on a later date, but the information he collected was supposed to be about the people who were in the house on the census day. The basic census enumeration unit was the county. Each county was divided into enumeration districts, one for each enumerator. The completed forms were sent to the Commerce Department’s Census Office in Washington, D.C.

      Federal censuses are usually reliable, depending on the knowledge of the informant and the care of the census enumerator. Information may have been given to a census taker by any member of the family or by a neighbor. Some information may have been incorrect or deliberately falsified.

      Begun in 1935 by the Social Security Act signed into law by FDR, more than thirty million Americans were registered for the economic security sanctions by 1937. From 1937 to 1940, payments were made in one-lump sums amounts with the first amount being seventeen cents. Following amendments in 1939, the payments turned into monthly benefits and increased. Following further amendments in 1950, cost-of-living increases were awarded to those who were receiving benefits. From 1950 to the present, benefits have increased yearly in response to inflation concerning the costs of living.
