Adrian
Originally founded by Jacob (Yasha) Taft in Bozhedarovka (Dneprepetrovsk), Ukraine in 1915, civil war broke out, Jacob married the beautiful Sima Morokhovsky (full story here) (by Adrian's sister, Sharman Lichtenstein) and they migrated to Australia in 1922. Business was then re-established in Australia as Electro-Mechanical Products. E.M.P. (for short) manufactured and repaired electric motors, built breach block gun parts (magnifies explosive) for Australian troops in World War II for Vickers Ruwolt and later, textile machinery, for which non-slip roller coverings to grip fabrics was a necessity.
In 1923 Jacob and Sima had a beaughtiful daughter Eugenia ( Una Taft ). In 1943 Eugenia married Arnold Blashki , a lawyer, son of Gad Louis & Irma Blashki. Lou's famliy was huge, his parents Phillip and Hannah Blashki had migrated from England in 1858 and then raised 14 children. Arnold and Una were wonderful parents, kind, loving and generous to their family and community, often take the needy into their home in times of stress. Friday night dinners with Sharman and Adrian's families were always an enjoyable event.
Their son Adrian was born in 1953 and would often visit and work over school holidays with Jacob at his engineering factory. Adrian graduated from Building studies at RMIT in 1975 and then joined Jacob working together for many years. Jacob retired at the wonderful age of 91 and since 1984 E.M.P. has been owned and managed by Adrian Blashki, Jacob's grandson. Adrian's wife Bonnie is in charge of the accounts section. Children Courtney, Devon and Erin are often helping out when they can, mixing work with their own studies.
