SCHVARTZ / LECHTMAN Offspring #general

Harry Moatz
 

I am researching the SCHWARTZ / SCHWARZ /SHVARTZ / SHVARZ family. Part
of the family is >from Stanisalawow, now Ivano-Frankivisk, now in the
Western Ukraine (formerly Poland / Galicia). Part of the family is
from Monasterzyska, also now in the Western Ukraine (formerly Poland /
Galicia). I am aware of many members went to the New York area, some
went Isreal.

I am most interested in locating any offspring of Natan LEKHTMAN. His
testimony is preserved at Yad Vashem regarding the deaths of Berta
SCHVARTZ RUBIN, Freida SCHVARTZ VAENSHTOCK, and their respective
children, Fieda, Leonid, Tatiana ( aka Tynia), and Roza RUBIN; and
Zhana and Helena VAENSHTOCK. Natan is the grandson of Freida SCHVARTZ
VAENSHTOCK.

Berta and Freida SCHVARTZ's father, Mordechai (aka Marcus) SCHVARZ
(spelled without a t), was my ggrandfather's brother.

I would appreciate any family links in the SCHWARTZ / SCHWARZ /
SCHVARTZ or LEKTHMAN lineage. Please contact me privately at the
email above.

Thank you.

PENNER? Family Mystery Link #lithuania

Ann Scher
 

I have been matched with a cousin on AncestryDNA. She knows very little
about the Jewish side of her family.

Her DNA matches several cousins >from my family, including descendants
of my great-grandfather and his two brothers (Harry, Sam, Albert
SCHER/SHARSHEVICH >from Lithuania). Therefore I assume that our shared
ancestry is through their parents (Shlioma and Sarah SHARSHEVICH)
and that she is a descendant of one of the brothers or their siblings.

Her Jewish grandfather is Elias PENNER, b 1906 in Vilnius. His father
might have been Yankel. He was married to Rose BELENKAYA >from Romania.
Their son was Shlomo PENNER, b 1947 in Lithuania. The family moved to
Israel then emigrated to the US around 1959. I don't recognize any of
these names.

I am posting this in case any of this is familiar to anyone. Does
anyone has any suggestions for how we could pursue this link between
the SHARSHEVICH and PENNER familes? Are there variants of PENNER that
I should look for?

Thank you,

1921 Vilnius Foreign Passport #lithuania

Fred Millner <flmillner@...>
 

Dear Fellow Researchers,
I have a technical question. Foreign Passports were issued to cousins
of mine (residents of Vilnius) in 1921. The archive is LCVA/53/6/635.
The information does not identify the authority who issued them. Were
these passports issued by Vilnius, Poland, or Lithuania? (Vilnius was
very briefly part of Lithuania in 1920 or so, and was not part of
Poland until a puppet congress voted to annex in 1922.) Just curious.

Thanks in advance!
