In the late 1880s, a young, determined Russian immigrant named Max Levinson arrived in East Baltimore. Max first got started in funeral transportation, which later grew into funeral home ownership. He is pictured with his wife, Belle; in his arms is his daughter, Sarah, and standing is his daughter, Esther.
