Maybe add, “Bob Kane has been described as being of Eastern European Jewish descent – this is unverified and his father appears to have had deep roots in the German Jewish community,”.
Can you do a modicum of research before blathering nonsense everywhere?
Bob Kane’s father was born in 1892. Explain how it’s possible he’s the son of Otto Hermann Kahn and Adelaide Wolff like Geni claims, when Wolff was born in 1875 and married Kahn in 1896.
Yes, that is an error. But do you consider the familysearch info to be more accurate when geni.com is linking bob Kane’s father to german jewish lineage?
Why wouldn’t it be? There’s no real ambiguity to what is listed on this page.

Then you are definitely right. I struggle with insomnia and that’s affected my mental health and some of my replies. Apologies for this, Bob Kane does in fact appear to be ethnically Russian Jewish.
We see you’re not mentally ok, Kane looked Hispanic.
Follers, the genealogy you provided is incorrect and appears to come from either incorrect or unrelated census information. Bob Kane was by all means of German Jewish descent, not Russian, and this is evident through his genealogy on geni.com. This page needs to be fixed.

Actually I am not sure about his mother. But his father was definitely German Jewish, not Russian.
Ethnic, is there a picture, please?
no sorry
Ok, not to be obnoxious, but can’t you just find those off the internet? Perhaps this website only accepts certain file types. Lol
