A Little Bit About Where Brian's Family Came From:
Lithuanian emigrants have spread their influence far and wide around the world. Among those who are either from Lithuania themselves, from the Baltic States, or whose parents are either from Lithuania were/are:
Detroit Symphony Orchestra Conductor Nemi Jarvee,
Actor Charles Bronson,
The Three Stooges, Moe Howard, Shemp Howard and Curly Howard,
American composer Aaron Copland,
Pope John Paul II's mother, ...

... and the Grandfather of Beatle's manager Brian Epstein, Isaac Epstein, who was founder of the furniture store chain Epstein's ... which eventually spawned NEMS.

Here's a website containing many other facts about Lithuania ... including a little recipe at the bottom. Enjoy.
