14 Benjamin Bane and his family came to this country in 1914 from the Lithuanian town of Shaavel (Siuliaui in Lithuanian). His wife, Sura Sheva, or Sarah, and two sons, William and Henry, joined him. The family name may have been Americanized from Bene to Bane.

In Durham, North Carolina, Benjamin had a brother, Solomon Bane, who sold cattle. Solomon, and his wife, Chava Esther, lived at 406 Holloway Street near the corner of Queen. Benjamin moved into a home on Roxboro Street. He owned a junkyard across the street. Benjamin Bane was not the only junk, or scrap collector, in town. In 1902, there were four Jewish scrap collectors living in the region, according to "Homelands: Southern Jewish Identity in Durham and Chapel Hill," by Leonard Rogoff. "Russian Jews with little capital tended to live on the economic margins," Rogoff wrote.

David Schuman, the grandson of Solomon Bane, remembers visiting Benjamin Bane in his Roxboro Street home. He provided most of the information for this account. Schuman said his great uncle's junkyard extended to his house. There were car radiators, batteries and fenders on the front porch.

The family spoke Yiddish and was relatively observant. William Bane, Benjamin and Sarah's eldest son, went on to study architecture at Carnegie Mellon University. He married Terry Shifreen, settled in Allentown, Pa., and died suddenly at age 52. Henry, the younger son, attended Trinity College in Durham and later earned a law degree from UNC Chapel Hill. He served as a Durham lawyer and onetime judge. He never married, and died in his mid 90s.

Schuman remembers that his great uncle Benjamin was hard of hearing. One September evening in 1953, he went out for a walk. His bruised body was found the next day. It was never determined how he died - whether he was mugged, fell, or was struck by a vehicle.

Lillian Gertrude Bane
 
18 Lillian suffered from high blood pressure her entire life. Her parents lived at 406 Holloway Street in Durham, North Carolina. Lillian was reared in an observant home that strictly observed kashrut and the Sabbath. Her father, Solomon, hired a "melamed" or "teacher" so his four children could get a sound Jewish education. The melamed lived in the family home and took his meals there. He taught the two boys the "alef beys" or Hebrew, and the girls Yiddish.

Lillian never married and lived at home. She died at age 32, two days before Tisha B'Av. David Schuman, her nephew from Baltimore, was visiting at the time. He remembers she died at home, and her body was kept on ice until the funeral the next day. "Her death was very traumatic for Schuman who was 12 at the time.

Her parents eventually moved to Baltimore, where their older daughter, Frances Lena Bane Schuman, lived with her husband, Morris, and their three children: Harriet, David and Leonard.

35 Sarah and Benjamin came from Shavel, Lithuania in 1914. Her family called her "Sura Sheva." She was heavy and short and wore thick glasses, remembers David Schuman, a great nephew. She was also a very kind and solicitous host who served watermelon to her guests on hot summer days, Schuman said. Sarah, Benjamin and their two sons, William and Henry, lived on Roxboro Street in Durham, North Carolina. Sarah Bane spoke Yiddish at home, but her sons picked up English quickly. Both did well, one becoming an architect, the other a lawyer. Her husband, Benjamin, lived on another 11 years after her death in 1942.
