Several people have written and asked me for additional information
about my recent posting "looking for anyone that has ever seen the
Surname BINENBAUM or any derivation of the name in any posting or
database."

Here is some additional information.

Although me name is now Schenker when my grandfather and father came to
the United States >from Brest, Russian Poland their Surname was
BINENBAUM.

I am searching for anyone with the Surname of BINENBAUM, BIENENBAUM,
BINENBOYM or BINENBOJM or any derivation of this Surname.

According to Alexander Beider's book "A Dictionary of Jewish Surnames

from the Russian Empire" that was published in 1993 the above Surnames

when translated mean either "bee tree" or "bee hive":
. "Binenbaum A; Bienenbaum (German) bee tree (bee hive)
(Binenbojm)"
. "Binenbojm (Khotin, Rovno) A: binenboym (Yiddish) See
Binenbaum"

There could be additional derivations of the Surname, which was
miswritten when people translated their Surnames >from one language to
another language or moved >from one village to another. All of the below
listed Surnames when translated mean "pear tree".

. Barambejm
. Baranbojm
. Barembojm
. Barenbaum
. Barinbaum
. Barnbejm
. Berenbaum
. Berinbejm
. Bernbaum
. Birenbaum
. Birinbaum
. Birnbaum
. Borenbejm
. Borimbojm

We are building a web site for people with any of the above Surnames. We
have started with the Surnames of BINENBAUM, BIENENBAUM, BINENBOYM or
BINENBOJM or any derivation of this Surname. We have been searching most
of the English language web sources and have found about fifty (50)
names >from around the world.

You can find the home page to this web site at
http://binenbaum1.tripod.com/

We also have a page that lists all of the BINENBAUM's that we have found
with our searching. The URL is:
http://binenbaum1.tripod.com/surnames/id24.html

Help would be appreciated >from anyone who has information about the
Surnames of BINENBAUM, BIENENBAUM, BINENBOYM or BINENBOJM or any
derivation of these Surnames.
