Jasha Blumenschein 1

  • Born: 9 Nov 1896, Wisconsin, United States 2
  • Marriage (1): Helen Theo Wallace
  • Died: 24 Sep 1972, San Francisco, California, United States at age 75
  • Buried: Cypress Lawn Memorial Park, Colma, San Mateo, California, United States 3

   Other names for Jasha were Jack Bloom and Pappy Bloom.

  Research Notes:

After immigrating to the United States, he went by the name Jack Bloom. He came to the United States as a baby. His older sister, Anna, was only 4 years old at that time.

Helen Theo Wallace's fourth and last husband. He was fondly known as "Pappy" in the community.

  Birth Notes:

The Jack Bloom who died on 24 Sep 1972 In San Francisco county, California, was born on 9 Nov 1896 in Wisconsin. This is contrary to the recollections of his wife's grandchildren, who believe he was born in Russia. Because both Jack Bloom and Theo Bloom are both interred at Cypress Lawn, where death dates match up with the California Death Index, this researcher is using Wisconsin as Jack's birthplace.

  Death Notes:

A family member recalls his passing away around 1971. However, a
Theo Bloom and Jack Bloom are both buried at Cypress Lawn Memorial Park. It is quite likely that they are "our" people. That Jack died on 24 Sep 1972, and Theo died on 21 May 1973.

  Burial Notes:

According to a note from a volunteer for findagrave.com, Jack Bloom was cremated at Cypress Lawn but interred(?) somewhere else. In other words, that volunteer could not find a gravesite or memorial.


Jasha married Helen Theo Wallace, daughter of William Havelock Wallace and Mabel Clare Gold. (Helen Theo Wallace was born on 30 Sep 1901 in Belview, Redwood, Minnesota, United States,4 died on 21 May 1973 in Colma, San Mateo, California, United States 5 6 and was buried in Cypress Lawn Memorial Park, Colma, San Mateo, California, United States 7.)
