{geni:about_me} These were names mentioned for Simons father. Charles Koppel was an informant for Simons death certificate, and it was noted that Simons father was William. It may also be Yehuda through a note received by Irv Koppel stating that in coversation with I believe Ike, his grandfathers name was Yehuda. Anyway something to go on.

It seems that the only logical name would be Mayer or Majer through JSI Poland. Searching names and appearance, mayer was a property owner in 1846, with no other Koppels mentiones, and voter list of 1870, and again no others mentioned. Yearwise it would put him close of age with Bassie.
