I have not searched geneolgy in a long time and finding Borkens of any spelling has been slim but there seems to be many more. I think my great grandmother is Ida or Ada Borkin
my Grandfather was born in New York His name was Henry and he Married Mary Kavner . I just got a terrific reply Kavner aand so I will continue and i would love to hear where your BBorkin kin are from.??
