From: Ellen Gottfried [mailto:en@...] Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 4:02 AM To: JewishGen Discussion Group Subject: Tzdok as grandfather's name Dear Genners: My grandfather was born in Mir, Belarus. The Hebrew name on his grave is tzade, dalet, vav, he. The family always pronounced this Tzdok. I thought a tzodk was the term for a learned, righteous man, not a name. Has anyone heard of this as a name? How should it be pronounced? Thank you for your help. Ellen GOTTFRIED
