JewishGen: Complex Genealogy in the U.S. Course beginning March 23 #latinamerica

Looking for someone in the U.S.?
If despite basic online research you have not yet found the Hebrew
names, birth year or town for your U.S. immigrant, consider a focus on
the more complex documents our ancestors generated including
Naturalization, Passports, Death Records (Probate, Obituaries,
Cemeteries), Newspapers, City Directories, Immigration Ports other
than Ellis Island, Major Archives and Libraries, Military and
Government Records.
We're proud of our Education FORUM where students are encouraged to
post one ancestral branch, and the instructor will respond with
answers to questions and suggestions on avenues to research; this
monthlong personal Mentoring process is unique and quite valuable.

Please see the description for requirements, dates and tuition at
https://www.jewishgen.org/education/description.asp?course=40105 .

Searching for descendants of Eliezer ben Kalman KASZUB (Israel? France - CASSUBE? Other) #france

Joyaa Antares
 

Dear Genners,

I would like to reach any descendants of Eliezer KASZUB, possibly born 1898;
son of Kalman and Nauma (nee KEMPNER) KASZUB.

Eliezer submitted 43 pages of testimony [POTs] to Yad Vashem for friends and
family many years ago, mainly for the KASZUB family of Lodz, Poland; and
possibly some >from Krosniewice, Poland. The submitted pages are in Hebrew,
and I presume Eliezer lived in Israel.

Nauma is a recently "discovered" cousin of my KEMPNER family. Some of the
POTs relate to KEMPNERs, and many to KASZUBs. I don't know exactly how the
French KASZUB branch is related, but I understand that they spell the
surname CASSUBE.

Thank you!

INTRO - Seek guide for a research travel in Germany. Researching Families From Kassel, Lisberg, Bamberg, Nuremberg, Schluechtern, Eppelsheim, Hainsfarth, etc. #germany

William Meyers <bpmeyers@...>
 

Hello: My name is William Meyers II (Bill) and I Just joined the Group.
My wife and I are going to Germany this Spring in mid-May for a
convention in Bremen and, after that, are renting a car to drive south
through Hannover, Kassel, to the Bamberg, Fuerth and Nuremberg areas
ending our trip in Munich.

We plan to stay a couple of days in each area and are interested in
finding someone local who speaks English and might be willing to act
as a guide for us. We would like to see the Jewish areas and old parts
of the towns that existed in the early to mid-1800s when our families
emigrated to come to America, if there is anything remaining or rebuilt.

I'm sorry to say we are Reform Jews and don't speak Hebrew, Yiddish or
German but if we were to visit a cemetery or cemeteries it would be good
if our guide could interpret inscriptions for us, prticularly if they
relate to our families.

I Have been doing genealogy for many years though I'd probably be
considered an intermediate researcher. I have identified the birth
and death dates of all my grandparents, great grandparents and most
of my great, great grandparents including those of my wife's family.

My immediate goal is to add at least one more generation to each line
to the extent possible. I understand this will likely involve accessing
records in Germany or records that have been scanned and brought to the
US or are on line.

Family names and town they left to come to America of interest are:
MEYERS - Lisberg/Bamberg, KIngdom of Bavaria; GOODMAN - Lisberg/Bambrg
LOWENSTEIN - Peckelsheim/Hannover, Niedersachsen; KAHN - Shluechtern,
Grand Duchy of Baden; LEVY - Schluechtern; KUHN - Niederhochstadt,

We'll appreciate any help that is offered.

A few years ago a kind member sent me photos of tombstones that had
unfortunately grown-over, and I was unable to see any details.

If anyone is visiting there, a photo of each would be appreciated.
Hopefully the growth has now been cut back, or possibly it can be pulled
to one side to facilitate the photos.

Indexing Vitebsk City Duma Lists #belarus

Max Preston
 

Hi all,

I have gathered copies of Vitebsk city duma lists (voter lists) from
1905, 1906, 1907, and 1912. Many of these lists identify the religion
of the individuals named, which makes it possible for us to create a
searchable list of the Jews listed. For the lists that don't identify
religion, I suppose we will just have to create a searchable list of
everyone.

Anyway, with the help of Banai Lynn Feldstein, I am testing out Crowd
Sourced Indexing as a way to get these lists indexed so that they can
be made searchable. As a test-run, I have uploaded a small portion of
the 1907 duma lists. If anyone is able to read Cyrillic (Russian)
characters and is willing to help, please check out this initial,
small project at https://csindexing.com/projectinformation.php?p=356.

Thanks!

The recently completed roots trip to Cape Town >from Israel by Beverly Saevitzon
Jacobson and her children precipitated a search for the Sefer Torah her great
grandfather, Aphraim Bloch, donated to Highlands House retirement home back in
1948.

The last time it was seen by a family member was by Beverly's brother, Richard
Shavei Tzion in 1998.

Read more about this success story, the research tools used and documents found

that helped locate the Sefer Torah, and bring the family together to honour the

Yom Hashoah Commemorated April 12 in Israel and the United States #general

Jan Meisels Allen
 

Starting the evening of Wednesday April 11 through Thursday April 12 the
United States and Israel commemorate Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day,
remembering the 6 million Jews and 5 million others who perished in the
Holocaust as a result of Nazi Germany actions. Yom HaShoah is commemorated
on the 27th of Nisan, a week after the seventh day of Passover and a week
before Yom Hazikaron (Memorial Day for Israel's fallen soldiers). It marks
the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. In North America Yom Hashoah
commemorations, find it more practical to hold commemorative ceremonies on
the closest Sunday to Yom Hashoah while others celebrate the day on April
19, the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. In Israel, it is a
national memorial day and public holiday. It was inaugurated on 1953,
anchored by a law signed by then Prime Minister of Israel David Ben-Gurion
and the President of Israel Yitzhak Ben-Zvi.

This is a different commemoration than International Holocaust Memorial Day
which was commemorated on January 27 this year, it is declared by the United
Nations. The United Nations and the European Union commemorate the same
anniversary with an event called International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It
started in 2005 when the United Nations marked the 60th anniversary of the
end of the Holocaust.

Look at your area for local commemorative community events. Some JGSs also
have programs to remember the day.

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum lists their events include the
reading in the US Capitol 's Emancipation ceremony Monday April 9 at 11
a.m.. See:
