Something I've been thinking about recently. A couple years back I was discussing the Mossafer ( Moussafir Mosafir ) family with Sherry Mossafer Rind , and she mentioned Rabbi Nessim Abraham Mossafer (who I believe was the 1st cousin of my Great Great Grandmother the Hanula Mousafir who married Abraham Capuano) had a bunch of records and history of the Mossafer family in his personal collection, and that his wife (Leah Franco) sent it to Israel when she moved from Rhodes to the US. Specifically she sent it to Rishon Le Zion, Chief Rabbi Moshe Yudah Franco. Since he was very prominent, I'm curious what became of his personal library and records? Is it possible that they ended up as part of the National Library of Israel Baruch Nahon? Or would they potentially be elsewhere? I'd be curious to see if there is useful information about Rhodesli history and genealogy in that collection if it still exists. For context, here is the original post: https://www.facebook.com/groups/130804330433532/posts/1802169636630318/
