Have you established beyond doubt who the 8 'living' offspring were?

Usually with overseas research you need to know exactly where they come from as records are often kept locally. Kiev now Kyiv is mentioned, which I am sure you know is the capital of the Ukraine. You have to consider whether this is really the right time to follow this line.
Unless you can find them on Family Search. Babies who died shortly after birth may not have even been registered but are remembered,

It's the 1910 census which says 12 children born, 8 living.

ian Report 3 Sep 2022 10:35

The 12 children came from a census record (1920 or 30 cannot remember) states 12 children born 8 living, they may have been born in Russia (if so how can i find them)?

If Harry did indeed father 12 children Could some of the 12 have been born in Russia but not survived long enough to emigrate.

The naturalisation record posted by ErikaH is maybe for the man with wife Mollie, whom Ian has rejected?

1920 - Samuel 24, Daniel 22, Ruth 19, Pauline 16, David 16 and Kalman 11

NO - Can't be this Harry

His 1919 Naturalisation documents say this Harry had 6 children and gives place and date of birth. They give date of arrival in USA as 1 April 1906

Kalmen - b Brooklyn
