ViewMate translation request - German #general

Patrick Atlas <patrick.atlas@...>
 

I've posted a vital record in German for which I need a translation.
It is on ViewMate at the following address :

http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM33959

It's about my great-grandfather's second marriage. There are perhaps
some relevant information that I don't know yet.

Please respond via the form provided in the ViewMate application.
Thank you very much.

Seeking - Cory FRIEDMAN - Philadelphia, PA #general

Shane Spitzer <shanespitzer@...>
 

Does anyone know a Friedman family in the Philly area that fits the following
description?

I'm seeking my birth mother and would love any help!

My birth Mothers name was listed as Cory Friedman on my birth certificate. I was
told my birth mother was >from PA, likely Philly or surrounds.

Both my birth parents went to University in the NYC metro area in the late 1960's
(possibly into the early 1970's). My birth mom gave birth to me in Jamaica Queens
Hospital on January 5, 1969. I estimate my Mom's birth year to be approx 1947-1952
(solely based on general ages of college kids). My birth Dad was >from Italy
(although according to my DNA test is was only 1/2 Italian) and was studying abroad
at the same University.

Does the above sound familiar to anyone?

I have a g-g-grandmother named Anna in English (Chana Frima in Hebrew on matzevah) and her daughter, my g-grandmother, was Annie in English (Chaya Hena in Hebrew on matzevah).

I am trying to determine if my great grandmother and her daughter could
have the same first name because I thought that was forbidden by

My ancestors, Herman and Eszter Hannah Deutsch, seem to have had a
daughter named Hencsa (b. 1869) who became Hannah in the USA. So I
assume that Hencsa and Hannah were variations of the same name. And
this would be another instance of apparently non-traditional naming with
a daughter carrying the same name as a living mother. But- what if
daughter Hencsa-Hannah had been named for another Hannah in the family-
perhaps Herman's mother was Hannah, deceased. Has anyone encountered
this and wouldn't it have been acceptable?

Descendants of Herbert Sulzbach and Bernhard Weiss #general

Snillop47@...
 

An acquaintance of mine, in America, has written a book on Jews in the
German Army in WWI. It will be published in the UK next year. It will be
formally launched early in 1915 and he would like to invite any descendants of
two prominent German-Jewish officers who became refugees in England. One was
Herbert Sulzbach, who became a British Army officer in WWII, and the other
was Bernhard Weiss.

If anyone has any information about any descendants I should be delighted
to hear of them so that I can pass their details to the American author
(actually he was born in South Africa.)

Levine in Pennsylvania #general

Margaret Fullarton and David Mark
 

I am trying to establish a relationship between my husband's family and various
people whose photos we have. I know who these people belong to in the US but
am totally confused as to why my mother in law's family held these photos.

The photos are of a Zelda Kaplan with the writing on the back saying Aunt Zelda
Kaplan and various baby photos and one of Gussie Levine Saltzmann. I have found
out that Gussie was born Levine but her father died and her mother married a
Saltzmann who was a widower. There is no record of her mother's maiden name nor a
record of her father's death (could be Israel or Isaac Levine) which is said to
have been a railway accident before the turn of the 20th century. The family lived
in Pennsylvania.

Gussie married a William Krelitz and two of the photos are of two of her
daughters, Janis and Leona.

If anyone can point me in the direction of finding the connection to this family
I would be grateful. The name most likely to be related is TOFF but it could be
MARK or NAYMARK (with its varied spelling) - the photos were found with one of
Rosie Toff, wife of Barnett Toff who migrated to Manchester England about 1890 from
Lithuania - where in Lithuania I have no idea as TOFF is not found on most
databases on Jewishgen.

Reading Marriage Register from Moravia; German language #general

Robert Fraser
 

Dear Friends -

Primarily thanks to the expertise of Randy Schonberg, I now have a copy of an entry
in a marriage register >from the town of Lostice/Loschitz in Moravia. It records the
marriage (actually the first of two) of Moritz Nowak, my great-grandfather, in
1860.

Randy and I have been able to extract some vital information >from the register, but
I'm sure there is more that I can't read. I have tried to make the copy as readable
as possible, but I'm still missing most of it.

If some expert would kindly take a look at it, I'll email them a copy. What I have
is unsuitable for posting to ViewMate, so I can post a Word.doc file to them.

The register was obtained >from the website:

http://badatelna.eu/reprodukce/?fondId=241&zaznamId=1133698&reproId=3884105

Thanks, and please respond off-list.

Given Name Summer #general

Barbara Musikar
 

I have been researching my late uncle's family. I found that he had an elder
brother named Summer. I looked on the web, in the Jewishgen Info files and in the
past Jewishgen discussion group for the origin or meaning of the name, but I have
been unable to find an answer. I am trying to match up this information to a family
tree in which a son supposedly born to my uncle's parents a year after this child
was born is given the Hebrew name Itamar. There is a possibility that he (Summer)
may have changed his name. In any case what is the origin of the name Summer and
how may it connect to the Hebrew name Itamar.
