Chag Pesach Sameach to all our wonderful friends.
Lance Ackerfeld is now back with us after his sad trip to Melbourne to attend his father's funeral. In April we will be catching up with the materials submitted to us during his absence. During March we added one new book, one new entry, and 11 updates. New book: -Pinkas Slovakia: Pinkas HaKehillot, 2003 : the table of contents, a list of the Jewish communities in Slovakia, a brief history of Slovakian Jewry, and maps are now online. New entry: -Rumsiskes, Lithuania >from Yidishe Shtet Updates: -Bedzin, Belarus -Czyzew, Poland -Dolginovo, Belarus -Gorodenka, Ukraine -Kurenets, Belarus -Lida, Belarus -Molchadz, Belarus -Shumskoye, Ukraine -Sosnowiec, Poland -Svencionys, Lithuania -Yedintsy, Moldova All entries mentioned above are flagged in the alphabetical listing at http://www.jewishgen.org/Yizkor/translations.html Project coordinators are needed for the following yizkor book projects: Antopol, Belarus; Brest, Belarus; Przemysl, Poland; and Sanok, Poland. If your ancestral roots are in one of these towns, won't you consider how to coordinate the translation of the yizkor book? Please contact me if you are interested.
