Rabbis in Belarus #belarus
E.Doberstein <edoberst@...>
After finally discovering the names of my maternal Grandparents, from
Svarycewicze,[near Pinsk], Belarus. I have been unable to go back any further. My Mother said that her Grandfather was a Rabbi, but not which Grandfather ! Her parents' names were : Shaindle MODACK and Isaac DRYZUN.My question to the group is : Does anyone know of a book , or list of Rabbis in Belarus, covering the time-period 1850-1920 ? Evelyn Doberstein Spruce Grove, Alberta, Canada E-mail <edoberst@...> MODERATOR NOTE: About a month ago, someone posted a message about a book of Rabbis >from Russia. Check out the SIG message archives. Also check out <http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/deych.htm>, Jewish Religious Personnel in the Russian Empire, 1853-1854. There were two people listed with the name DREIZIN. This database is linked on the Belarus SIG website as well as the JewishGen website. Both sites have valuable information in help researchers and I urge those of you who haven't explored the various links to those sites to do so at once.
