does it make a noise? Beats me. Here's another question.If you've spent

question about KOYRE (from baal koyre) surname : why so rare ? #general

Nathalie Ried <njried@...>
 

Shalom,

I have been researching my ancestors >from Lithuania and Ukraine for about 14 years
and have benefitted >from JewishGen's wonderful tools.

I have noticed while researching my KOYRE family >from Odessa that this surname
(which I assume comes >from the function of Torah reader in the synagogue, the baal
koyre) was quite rare, even with its variant spellings (KOIRE, KOIRA, COIRE, COIRA
etc)

I have come across quite few bearers of that name, be it in the Ukraine or
Lithuania records.

I wonder why it is so rare (or is it a misperception on my part?), since there were
baal koyres in all communities, and other names derived >from the same type of
function are more common (GABAI for example)

I'm interested in any remarks, suggestions or anecdotes about the name, its
origins and rarity, thank you very much to all in advance,

Chag Purim Sameach,

Seeking excerpt from Pascal Faustini's La communaute juive de Metz et ses familles #germany

Michael Moritz
 

Hello, I recently learned that an ancestor of mine, Dina KRUMBACH of
Frankfurt, wife of Isaac Suesskind STERN, according to the great
Frankfurt history Ele Toldot, was the daughter of Mayer Krumbach
SCHWAB of Metz.

I have found online that Pascal Faustini wrote a massive volume on the
Jews of Metz dating >from 1565-1700, but sadly that he passed away. I
am seeking a copy of the excerpts Chapters 59
(Schwab/Schwaube/Grumbach) and Chapter 78 (Zay/Zey/See).

Please let me know if you can assist.

Many thanks, Michael Moritz, New York, USA michael.d.moritz@gmail.com

LitvakSIG Online Journal announces a new article by Anatolij Chayesh #lithuania

Carol Hoffman
 

LitvakSIG's online journal is proud to announce the publication of the
research article, "What Census Records Tell Us about Jewish Families
of 19th Century Lithuania, a Case Study" the Shtetl Zeimelis
1816-1853, written by Anatolij Chayesh and translated by Sonia Kovitz.

The research shares and analyzes information out the Jews of the
shtetl Zheymeili (current city of Zeimelis, Lithuania) contained in
the 7th, 8th and 9th revision lists (census records). Further it
demonstrates the benefits of studying those census records of entire
Jewish communities rather than solely of individual families, and
provides insight in the digitized data files available.

information about the couple's divorce (the divorce was mentioned
in the groom's 1911 marriage record >from Warsaw).

I will be grateful for a full translation of the divorce, and
translation of the date the marriage took place.
