Pauline’s paternal grandfather was The Rev. Roger Jacques Chalamet. The Rev. Roger was a French Protestant minister. He was from Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, a historically Protestant and Huguenot town. It is one of two towns collectively honored as Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem, as the town’s residents helped save Jews during the Holocaust.
Pauline’s paternal grandmother was Jean Elisabeth/Elizabeth Ashworth (the daughter of Richard Ashworth and Mary Ann Cartwright/Crawley). Jean was born in Canada, of English, and some Scottish and Irish, descent. She was from Brantford, Ontario. She moved to France, where she lived with Pauline’s grandfather. Pauline’s great-grandfather Richard was the son of Abell Allen Ashworth and Ann Broughton/Broughlan. Pauline’s great-grandmother Mary Ann was the daughter of Edmund Cartwright and Jeannette/Jeanette/Janet A. Doyle, whose father was from Ireland or England, and whose mother was from Dumfries-shire, Scotland.
Pauline’s maternal grandfather was Harold Flender, a writer and screenwriter of several films (the son of Jacob “Jack” Flender and Sadie Kasner). Harold was born in New York, to Jewish parents from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Jacob was born in Kraków, Poland, and was the son of Elias Moritz/Mojzesz/Marus Flender and Mariem/Miriam Kempler, who was from Łapanów, Poland. Sadie was the daughter of Hershel/Herschel/Harry Kasner, who had family in Kraków, and of Chana/Annie Frankel, who was from Tarnow.
Pauline’s maternal grandmother is Enid S. Rodman (the daughter of Philip Rodman and Rose Levine). Enid was born in New York, to Jewish parents from the Russian Empire, specifically Minsk. Philip was the son of Max Rodman and Celia Kantrowitz. Rose was the daughter of Yehuda/Julius Melakhovitzki/Levine and Yetta/Etta/Esther Yurzelnski/Abrajonsky.
