Ellis Island certificate of landing #general

Jim Gutterman
 

On one of my requests for naturalization documents, they included one
of these certificates in with the rest of the materials they sent me.
This was the one and only time I received it, however, out of maybe
10-15 requests I've made total.

Immigrants arriving at Ellis Island before 1906 received a Certificate
of Landing upon leaving the processing center.

assistance with photo identification (time frame, place) #poland

Debbi Schaubman
 

I have posted to ViewMate a photograph that belonged to my grandfather
(Mosche SZAUBMAN/SZOBMAN). No one in the family is sure who these
people are or, for that matter, where or when the picture was taken.

The current hypothesis is that it may be a photo of the family of my
ggf Noach GERSZTENBLIT, his 2nd wife, and his many children. If so,
the photo would date >from Lublin in (approximately) 1910.

I'd like to know if the clothing, hair styles, etc. are consistent
with that hypothesis.

The photo is at http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=17096

Please reply privately or via ViewMate.

Thanks for your help.

"[...] I am searching for genealogy software that will assist me in
mapping the genealogy of the Rabbanim... [...] that will allow me to
input mentors and disciples and to show graphically, connections
between them."

Hi,

Since what you're looking for is "very specialized", if no other perfect
solution turns up, you could possibly use software like "Brother's Keeper"
that allows creating an "Event/Fact" with respect to any individual in the
tree, plus naming witnesses to the "Event/Fact" and then assign the "Mentors"
as witnesses to this "Event/Fact" (for example Education)... And use a
second different ""Event/Fact" (any one of the dozens that Brother's Keeper
has built in) and name the "Disciples" as "Witnesses" to this event.

In Brother's Keeper, "Witnesses" become part of the family tree and
therefore could also be assigned wives, children, Mentors, Disciples and
other "Events/Facts" as well as relationships of their own.

Friendly regards,
Alan (Ehrlich)
Geneva, Switzerland

MODERATOR NOTE: Detailed discussion of the operations of specific
genealogy programs is beyond the scope of JewishGen lists. Please
continue the discussion of the details of how Brother's Keeper
handles "Events/Facts" privately. Suggestions of other programs
that can do what Mordecai Perlman is looking for will be considered
for posting.

Which of Rashi's daughters provided: physical life, the astonishing
maternal influence, the founding consciousness and also the home-
reality that helped these young boys before the men took over their
educations and they became prominent Rabbis and commentators? It's
such a phenomenal project; I hope appropriate attention will be paid
to the females.

I am especially sensitive to this because no one seems to know the
names of the current Belzer Rav, Yissacher Dov II's paternal
grandmother's, mother and grandmother's names. I have family letters
and tapes talking about my father being an "eineckle" of the Belzer
Rav, I have a legal document that names the Rav's orphaned daughter
"Rokart" (rather than "Rokach"), but because of the lack of proper
genealogical documentation, none that I have found so far, we may
never know exactly what the familial relationship is/was. I know that
the Rokart/Rokard's were in Belz before the Rokach's; I know we sold
property to them that was used as Jewish communal property; I know
that the Rav asked my ancestor to leave his Rabbinic post in Most and
move to Belz to be his Shochet, etc. But the mystery of the maternal
ancestry of Reb Yissacher Dov's (I) zt"l 2nd wife, Chaye Devorah a"h,
this may never be solved because of lack of attention to the females.
Enough already.

Does anyone know the religious practices for this Manhattan Synagogue

I am assuming it had an association with Koidanov(o) which was in Russia then,
but is now Dzyarzhynsk Belarus. I have read extensive information about this

my question is limited to 1905 through 1915. I will cross post if needed.

of Esther?

Esther is not a Hebrew word, but rather Persian. Nevertheless, the
Sages (Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Chulin 139b) did find a source for
Esther in the Torah in the verse (Deuteronomy 31:18) "And I will surely
HIDE My Face on that day". Therefore, Esther means "hidden".

Additionally, the Sages state that "Esther" in Persian is a name
given to someone as beautiful as the "moon".

Now, as for the first option, there are no masculine names in the
Bible that are suitable or common for "hidden". But for a name at least
containing a word meaning moon, there are two. On is Y'rocham
(see Samuel I,1:1). This is a somewhat common name. Some use instead
"Y'rucham", which is more common. The other option is "Y'rach-m'el or
more common, Y'rachmiel,which is a very common name. Both of these
names also have a meaning of "mercy" in them.

I hope this helps you.

How to find European locations for name AUGUS,AUGUST,AUGUSTOWSKY #general

Susan Goldsmith
 

Dear SIG,

Yisroel Shapiro of Jerusalem requested help in determining where in
Europe his family name AUGUS,AUGUST,AUGUSTOWSKY,AUGUSTOWSKI appears.

Yisroel, I suggest that you consult the books of a brilliant young
scholar named Alexander Beider who has studied onomastics (names) and the
places where Jewish surnames are found. You can use the site www.worldcat.org
to locate the library nearest to you that has his books.

Beider's books include:

* Beider, A. 1996. A Dictionary of Jewish Surnames >from the Kingdom of
Poland. Teaneck, NJ: Avotaynu.["Best Judaica Reference Book" award for 1996]
* Beider, A. 1993, 2008. A Dictionary of Jewish Surnames >from the Russian
Empire. Teaneck, NJ: Avotaynu.
* Beider, A. 2004. A Dictionary of Jewish Surnames >from Galicia.
Bergenfield, NJ: Avotaynu.
* Beider, A. 1995. Jewish Surnames >from Prague (15th-18th centuries).
Teaneck, NJ: Avotaynu.
* Beider, A. 2010. Etymology of Sephardic Surnames: Achievements and
Perspectives. Pleasant Are Their Names: Jewish Names in the Sephardi
Diaspora. Bethesda, MD: Maryland University Press, pp. 23-77.

These are books that may also prove useful to you at some point:
* Beider, A. 2001. A Dictionary of Ashkenazic Given Names: Their Origins,
Structure, Pronunciation, and Migrations. Bergenfield, NJ: Avotaynu.
* Beider, A. 2009. Handbook of Ashkenazic Given Names and Their Variants.
Bergenfield, NJ: Avotaynu.

Because the borders of Eastern European countries changed frequently
over the years you may want to consult more than one of the surname books
above. Good luck in your research.

JGS of Greater Miami will be meeting Sunday, November 7, 2010 10:00am
at the Greater Miami Jewish Federation
4200 Biscayne Boulevard, Miami, FL
Tel: 305-576-4000 for directions.
Free Secure Parking on site. Press #001 on the yellow box to connect to
security. Announce you are attending the JGS meeting, the gate will slide
open. Have ID. Complimentary refreshments are served.

We are delighted and excited to offer this free program to you.

Have you reached this stage? "I've been working on my autobiography but I'm
stuck and need direction." Or even toying with the idea of writing one? Then
this is the meeting for you. Liz Coursen, author of "The Complete Biography
Workbook," will discuss how to organize and compose your autobiography at
our meeting. The Workbook got a rave review recently on C-Span's Book TV.
She will offer advice and guidance on how to leave a personal legacy for
your children and grandchildren.

The main thrust of her presentation is to encourage people to get their
first person stories of struggle and sacrifice and delayed gratification -
on paper for their families and their descendants. WWII, the Depression,
immigration, segregation, discrimination, and success. Just think about all
the important stories that are lost every day. A question and answer
session will follow.

Guests and their friends are always welcome. There is no admission fee.
Come and enjoy the morning of genealogy with your fellow researchers. This
should be a very informative session. We look forward to seeing you there
to share this with us and for us to share with you.
