Better is a handful of ease than two handfuls of toil and chasing after the wind.

Origin of Nevler name

The name Nevler comes from the name of the town Nevel. In the end of the 19-th century this name occurred mainly in two areas - in Dvinsk (today's Daugavpils) and in several places in Zaporozh'e. Apparently one talks a single family that in the end of the 19-th century, having left Nevel, separated into two main branches - eastern-Ukrainian and Latvian.
According to preliminary data that we could gather, part of the Baltic branch during the 20-th century immigrated to the Northern America. Today several descendants of this branch search for members of this family.
Here is what we could restore on the history of the Dvinsk branch:
In the mid-nineteen century two brothers lived in Dvinsk - David (born in 1842) and Moshe Nevler. Their father's name was Abraham. Moshe and his wife Sara had a son Joseph (born in 1854). Joseph's wife name was Feiga Lea (born in 1857).
By the beginning of the 20-th century in Dvinsk and surrounding areas the followin people with name Nevler lived:
Eliyahu Nevler (born in 1889) and his wife Enta. Part of their descendants left for Israel.
Moshe Nevler (born around 1890) and his wife Freidl.
Abram Nevler (born around 1890).
Vulf Nevler.

Dear representatives of the Nevler clan

We would like to invite you to help us ressurect the history of your family, to link up the branches of your family tree and to find relatives abroad. Among Jews, due to the manner in which family names were acquired and passed down, there are relatively few people who, although unrelated, bear the same surname as one another. The majority of Jewish people who bear a certain family name can usually trace their roots back to a common ancestor about 5-6 generations back. Further, when two Jewish people bear the same surname, they are usually members of the same broader 'clan', descended of the same extended family.
Resurrect your History - for he, who owns the Past also owns the Future.
Let your family be entered into the Book of Generations!
