Origin of Kadi, Meaning of Kadi

Origin: Immigrants to America often could not speak
English. Immigration officials who met the boats
often could not speak the immigrants language.
Jewish people who had recently lost a loved one
(sometimes in transit to America) where in
mourning. Somehow the Jewish prayer Kaddish
was used as their surname--according to my
grandfather Morris Kadish.
