JewishGen.org Discussion Group FAQs
What is the JewishGen.org Discussion Group?
The JewishGen.org Discussion Group unites thousands of Jewish genealogical researchers worldwide as they research their family history, search for relatives, and share information, ideas, methods, tips, techniques, and resources. The JewishGen.org Discussion Group makes it easy, quick, and fun, to connect with others around the world.
Is it Secure?
Yes. JewishGen is using a state of the art platform with the most contemporary security standards. JewishGen will never share member information with third parties.
How is the New JewishGen.org Discussion Group better than the old one?
Our old Discussion List platform was woefully antiquated. Among its many challenges: it was not secure, it required messages to be sent in Plain Text, did not support accented characters or languages other than English, could not display links or images, and had archives that were not mobile-friendly.
This new platform that JewishGen is using is a scalable, and sustainable solution, and allows us to engage with JewishGen members throughout the world. It offers a simple and intuitive interface for both members and moderators, more powerful tools, and more secure archives (which are easily accessible on mobile devices, and which also block out personal email addresses to the public).
I am a JewishGen member, why do I have to create a separate account for the Discussion Group?
As we continue to modernize our platform, we are trying to ensure that everything meets contemporary security standards. In the future, we plan hope to have one single sign-in page.
I like how the current lists work. Will I still be able to send/receive emails of posts (and/or digests)?
Yes. In terms of functionality, the group will operate the same for people who like to participate with email. People can still send a message to an email address (in this case, main@groups.JewishGen.org), and receive a daily digest of postings, or individual emails. In addition, Members can also receive a daily summary of topics, and then choose which topics they would like to read about it. However, in addition to email, there is the additional functionality of being able to read/post messages utilizing our online forum (https://groups.jewishgen.org).
Does this new system require plain-text?
No.
Can I post images, accented characters, different colors/font sizes, non-latin characters?
Yes.
Can I categorize a message? For example, if my message is related to Polish, or Ukraine research, can I indicate as such?
Yes! Our new platform allows members to use “Hashtags.” Messages can then be sorted, and searched, based upon how they are categorized. Another advantage is that members can “mute” any conversations they are not interested in, by simply indicating they are not interested in a particular “hashtag.”
Will all posts be archived?
Yes.
Can I still search though old messages?
Yes. All the messages are accessible and searchable going back to 1998.
What if I have questions or need assistance using the new Group?
Send your questions to: support@JewishGen.org
How do I access the Group’s webpage?
Follow this link: https://groups.jewishgen.org/g/main
So just to be sure - this new group will allow us to post from our mobile phones, includes images, accented characters, and non-latin characters, and does not require plain text?
Correct!
Will there be any ads or annoying pop-ups?
No.
Will the current guidelines change?
Yes. While posts will be moderated to ensure civility, and that there is nothing posted that is inappropriate (or completely unrelated to genealogy), we will be trying to create an online community of people who regulate themselves, much as they do (very successfully) on Jewish Genealogy Portal on Facebook.
What are the new guidelines?
There are just a few simple rules & guidelines to follow, which you can read here:https://groups.jewishgen.org/g/main/guidelines
Thank you in advance for contributing to this amazing online community!
If you have any questions, or suggestions, please email support@JewishGen.org.
Sincerely,
The JewishGen.org Team

Translation request: postcards in Yiddish

Hello,
A fresh trove of family materials have surfaced with the death of an elder. These two postcards >from a group of several appear to have been sent >from abroad. I would like a full translation of everything on each card. The first is a postcard that may have been sent >from Orgeyev, Bessarabia to Abram Spiwak in New York City in 1910. I'm not sure what first name this person is using for Abram? it appears to be "Sam"? If you see something else there, please comment. http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM66024 The second is a handwriting I think I recognize >from a branch of the family, but I have never before seen the pyramid or odd numeral in the stamp box. A full translation of this Yiddish message would be a great help. If anyone can comment on the stamp box, please do. http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM66025 Thank you!

FW: Passover stories
#bessarabia
Shalom to all my fellow genders!
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Before telling my story, I would like to remind that the word SEDER means order. (I apologize to those who already knew it.) My story is not about my family, it's about a colleague in work here in Israel. I'll call him Boris (this is not his real name), and he was a very sarcastic Jew >from Leningrad, that immigrated to Israel in the 70'. He never got used to the Israeli behavior, the noise, the lack of distance (that he considered disrespect), and was very critical about everything in Israel. I think he really missed the order, discipline and the Soviet way of life. My story happened in the beginning of the 80's, just after my Aliyah from Brazil, in 1978. Our boss in the Israeli Ministry of Education used to gather all workers before each chag. A few days before Pessach, we had another yeshiva chagigit (a festive meeting). Our boss liked to talk a lot - and suddenly he turns to Boris and asks: - Nu, Boris, etzlechem beLeningrad haia seder Pessach (did you have a seder Pessach in Leningrad)? This kind of question wasn't new? and Boris really didn't like it... so he answered: SEDER KEN, PESSACH LO (Seder yes, Pessach no). This is something I never forgot! Chag sameach! Judite

I am looking for information on Zalman (Solomon) STEIN - he died prior to 1951. I believe, he is buried at Brixton Cemetery. Is there a database to search for that cemetery? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks Marcella Shames

Re: Houses in Tarnopol area in early 1900s

Hello!
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Well, Tarnopol was a city and there are many pre-war pictures of it in the internet. There are also some pictures of Trembowla. Mikulince was a smaller city (3500 inhabitants, half of them Jewish), later just a village (with the castle of Rey family - now in ruins, palace and a baroque church- still present. I've found only one old photo, that shows the houses in Mikulince in the internet. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=9A%2fy1m9I&id=5= 9752F86DCD48DF69E6A263058A8C26A51D2D74A&thid=OIP.9A_y1m9IgWrVSnaciFv6RQHa= D6&q=mikuli%c5%84ce+ukraina&simid=608038410622274991&selectedIndex=75= mikuli%c5%84ce+ukraina&simid=608038410622274991&selectedIndex=75 [Or https://tinyurl.com/Mikulince - MOD.] It is also good to look at the field museums in Poland, where you can find typical houses >from the region. See for example this film >from the "Skansen Galicyjski" in Sanok, where the architecture of typical small city of Galicja is reconstructed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DkhN-JNMsLWY There are also some interesting facts about jewish presence in Mikulince in Slownik geograficzny Krolestwa Polskiego (Geographical Dictionary of the Polish Kingdom) created in the end of XIX c. Very useful dictionary that covers all the cities and villages of the territories of the First Rzeczpospolita (Commonwealth) (before the partitions in the end of XVIII c ). Unfortunately not translated into English. I translated a short part: "Local wealthy Jews trade a lot in Mikulince and surrounding cities like Tarnopol, Trembowla, Chorostkow, Strusow, Janow with wheat, eggs, horses, cows and especially with hempen fibre, that they buy in great amounts >from the local peasents and sell abroad. Millions of eggs are shipped to Hamburg and England." In the dictionary there are also given numbers of inhabitants of different religions and numbers of representants of different occupations. http://dir.icm.edu.pl/pl/Slownik_geograficzny/Tom_VI/413 Krzysztof Witaszek Lublin Poland
