Town Name Interpretation Please....

http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=32086

I know that the town listed >from a manifest says Torchin / Tortzyn.
Torchin was in the Volhynia gubernia of the Ukraine.
I can not figure out the second word after Torchin/Torczyn.
Please click on image to enlarge if necessary.

Any help would be appreciated. My email msnodrog@yahoo.com
Thanks in advance,
Hannah

Moderator's Note: Please reply either in the Viewmate form or privately.
I would say that the word that Hannah can't read is an abbreviated form of Volhynia, the province that Torchin was located in.

Hi Everyone,

My Maternal Grandmother was Esther ROSEN, the daughter of Michael Rosen and
Henrietta OXENHANDLER. She was born in Odessa in 1878. I have found the
birth records for some of her siblings in the Kremenets records, but I can't
find her birth record anywhere. Apparently at some point they moved to
Izyaslav. The records show that is where her family is >from and his family
was >from Rakhmanov. The records also show that my Great-Great Paternal
Grandfather was Joseph Rosen and my Maternal Great-Grandfather was
Hirsh/Gersh Oksengendler. I was happy to find this info, but I don't know
who their spouses were.


Esther married Isidore SCHUTTE ( eventually SCHULTZ) and came to the US in
1903, first to Philadelphia where he had family and then to New Orleans
where there were some members of her Rosen family. My Mother was born
there. I have trying to find more info on the Rosens' and the
Oksengendlers', but there is a lack of info on Rakhmanov and Izyaslav. If
anyone can help, or if any of my details ring a bell, please let me know? I
really appreciate any help. Thanks so much.

Hello again GerSiG,

I'm a long-time German Jewish researcher but just joined Gersig.

I'm glad to learn that the German Jewish SIG is a co-sponsor of the
Obermayer German Jewish History Awards program.

A few years ago, I was one of a group who helped to successfully
nominate my good friend Hans-Dieter Arntz of Euskirchen for this
prestigious award.

[ http://www.obermayer.us/award/awardees/arntz-eng.htm ]

Ms. Cordula Kappner of Hassfurt, Bavaria was a recipient of the award in 2004.
She had corresponded with me about my Friedsam/Friesem questions.

[ http://www.obermayer.us/award/awardees/kappner-eng.htm ]

And I had the honor of working with another researcher in Germany who
could surely have been an Obermayer Awardee. Klaus H.S. Schulte of
Enkirch, was a good friend.

Sadly, before I had a chance to nominate him, Klaus died of a massive
heart attack in September, 2001, just days after calling me on 9/11
find out if we were all right.

Searching MORRIS WILNER, HORODESKY, LASHANSKY, SILVERBERG or any variant,
particularly close to Kiev. Some of the family emigrated and settled in
chicago and Wisconsin and some became Gordon's in Kenosha. Morris Wilner,
was the "adoptive father" of Baila..? Who married David Horodesky. Baila
and David came to chicago late 1800's. David supposedly returned to
Russia, but there is a death certificate online that fits. Baila (d. 1926)
was mother of Judah, Anna, Nathan. Judah married Rose Silverberg in or
near Kiev or Priluky, emigrated to chicago with their children, Albert,
Sarah, Ruth and Gertrude. I'm particularly searching for more information
on Rose Silverburg, and Baila. Poland, Belarus, Ukraine show up to large
degrees in DNA.

In conjunction with the Obermayer Award presentations last weekend,
I've placed new messages of thanks to other German Jewish historians
on the JewishGen Wall of honor.

http://www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen-erosity/Honors/

These messages recognize a few people who have been helpful to my own
research during the past several weeks. I will add other thanks and honor
messages soon.

Donations for Wall of Honor plaques go to the JewishGen General Fund.
They are important to GerSIG because they help pay for our website and
our Email list and, perhaps most importantly, the JewishGen ViewMate service.

In the past few weeks, translations I've received through ViewMate
and GerSIG's Forum have brought me a 37 page genealogy of one related
family, fascinating new information about some ongoing Jewish history
research projects in Germany, and, sadly, the tragic Holocaust
histories of five heretofore unknown relatives.

The translation help came >from Jewish GerSIG members in the USA and
Israel as well as >from non-Jewish historians in Germany. I'm not
alone in owing thanks and support to these generous colleagues and to
the volunteers at ViewMate whose work is so vital to us all.

Please join me in supporting GerSIG and ViewMate with your financial
contributions - through the Wall of Honor messages, or donations to the GerSIG
Speakers' Bureau Fund and other funds at JewishGen.

Please also help in recognizing others who, like the 2014 Awardees,
have done outstanding work in Germany. Nominations for the 2015 German
Jewish History Awards are open.

Hello GerSIG,

I am searching for the following items related to Friesheim (now part of
Erftstadt), Germany:

1. The 1808 Jewish name change list for Friesheim.

2. The French census of Jews living in Friesheim in 1774 when its
Jews consisted of five families who lived in two houses.

3. Other censuses and lists of Jews living in Friesheim between the
late 1600s and 1780.

While my ancestors left Friesheim long before 1808, they would have
appeared in the earlier lists.

Among the names in Friesheim I am seeking are Andreas, Moses
Andreas and Hirsch.

I have been researching my family history for over 40 years. I think I have already
looked for these records in most obvious places.

I would be interested in "outside the box" ideas for finding these elusive documents.

A first-guild merchant and probably educated professional also had
the right to take with him outside the Pale of Settlement a certain
number of Jewish servants/servantess/assistants. The Number of Jews of
every occupation/ profession/cathegory in every big city outside the
Pale of Settlement was limited.
There were many other limitations - for example, the Jews were
abolished to serve in Russian Navy, etc. At the same time, it is
supposed, that say in Finland (a part of Russian Empire till 1917),
the first Jews who settled here were retired Russian soldiers.

Shalom,

During January quite a few updates were made to a number of our existing
Yizkor Book projects and I believe our unsung heroes - our htmlers, Jason
Hallgarten, Max Heffler and Osnat Ramaty - burned quite a lot of midnight
during the last month to take care of the large number of updates we
received. You'll see by the long list of updates below that their hard work
bore fruit.

And on bearing fruit, I am pleased to announce the completion of the
translation of the Turka, Ukraine Yizkor book and I would like to express my
gratitude to the following people who brought about this notable achievement
- Mary Seeman, Aytan and Boaz Ben-Pelech and, finally, Jerrold Landau who
translated the entire book. We were very fortunate to have these people
behind this project but there are so many other books just waiting for some
kind person or persons to come along and adopt them.

Over time, I receive quite a few messages >from people asking why there is
only the table of contents of a particular book and where are the
translations hiding? My usual reply to these queries is that this is because
no volunteer has stepped forward to coordinate the translation of this book.
I also explain that all the projects in the Yizkor Book site make their
progress with the financial support of volunteers and also volunteer
translations. Now without a volunteer to coordinate these projects,
unfortunately, they will remain as just bare bone projects. So what are you
waiting for?

During the past week, the International Holocaust day was commemorated to
honor the memory of Holocaust victims. In the Yizkor Book Project we
endeavor, on every day of the year to honor their memories and make sure
that the stories of these people and the lost communities remains available
to all.

Now to facts and figures for January.

unfortunately, they will remain as just bare bone projects. So what are you
waiting for?

During the past week, the International Holocaust day was commemorated to
honor the memory of Holocaust victims. In the Yizkor Book Project we
endeavor, on every day of the year to honor their memories and make sure
that the stories of these people and the lost communities remains available
to all.

Shalom,

During January quite a few updates were made to a number of our existing
Yizkor Book projects and I believe our unsung heroes - our htmlers, Jason
Hallgarten, Max Heffler and Osnat Ramaty - burned quite a lot of midnight
during the last month to take care of the large number of updates we
received. You'll see by the long list of updates below that their hard work
bore fruit.

And on bearing fruit, I am pleased to announce the completion of the
translation of the Turka, Ukraine Yizkor book and I would like to express my
gratitude to the following people who brought about this notable achievement
- Mary Seeman, Aytan and Boaz Ben-Pelech and, finally, Jerrold Landau who
translated the entire book. We were very fortunate to have these people
behind this project but there are so many other books just waiting for some
kind person or persons to come along and adopt them.

Over time, I receive quite a few messages >from people asking why there is
only the table of contents of a particular book and where are the
translations hiding? My usual reply to these queries is that this is because
no volunteer has stepped forward to coordinate the translation of this book.
I also explain that all the projects in the Yizkor Book site make their
progress with the financial support of volunteers and also volunteer
translations. Now without a volunteer to coordinate these projects,
unfortunately, they will remain as just bare bone projects. So what are you
