Dear Researchers,

Our team of translators finished working on Dubossary Residents Book
of 1866. Town residents book is a document that accounted for urban
population of the XVIII - early XX century. Every townsman was listed
alphabetically in the city residents book that typically consisted of
6 parts.

We have completed translation of 1140 records of Dubossary residents.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to two translators who worked
with me on completing this project: Genny Imas and Ala Gamulka. These
ladies dedicated many hours to this project and did an excellent job
translating records that contained words that are no longer used in
modern Russian language. Thank you, Ladies! I am looking forward to
working with you on future projects!

If someone would like to obtain the spreadsheet with the records
mentioned above, it will be possible with a donation of $100 to
Tiraspol Uezd Project or Bessarabia SIG General Fund. Here
is the link to the donation website

Shalom,

If asked to describe the Yizkor Book Project in one word, I would describe
it as the "one-that-never-stands-still-for-a moment" project. Not one word,
you say? You're right, but there isn't really one word to describe our
project as it is multi-faceted and is kept running by a multitude of
dedicated people, >from all corners of the globe, around the clock. I would
now like to relate what these same people have helped us accomplish during
the last month.

For a start, in February two books were added online. The first, which is
completely online is called "Holocaust in Rovno: The Massacre at Sosenki
Forest, November 1941" and was donated by Jeffrey Burds. Clearly this is an
important addition to those of you wishing to learn more about the events
that took place in Rovno (Rivne) during the Holocaust and thank Jeffrey for
this generous and significant donation.

The second book, >from which we have been kindly donated several sections,
comes >from Rasia Moroz of the Jewish Family and Children's Services of
Southern Arizona. The book is called "To Tell Our Stories: Holocaust
Survivors of Southern Arizona" and is particularly interesting as it
includes stories by Holocaust survivors >from the former-Soviet Union, and
their arduous journey east >from Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia, and the
subsequent harshness of life in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Siberia.

In recent times, I have been approached by people interested in seeing the
"A Memorial to the Jewish community of Dubno, Wolyn" book translated into
English. I suggested, as I usually do, that the best way to see this happen
was by setting up a specific Dubno Translation Fund to support the
professional translation of the book. With their agreement this has, in
fact, now been carried out and we now turn to those of you who are Dubno
researchers, to assist us in the lofty goal of making the unique treasures
this book contains available to a wide as possible public. If you are able
to assist financially to any extent, to this particular fund or any of the
other 85 odd project funds we have running, please see the JewishGen-erosity
link at the end of this report. Clearly, every donation is meaningful.

The Yizkor Book in Print Project is another facet of the YB Project that is
always on the move. This last month the "A City and the Dead; Zablotow Alive
and Destroyed - Memorial Book of Zabolotov" became available for purchase -
details may be found via the YBIP link at the end of this report.
By-the-way, Joel Alpert, the YBIP Project Manager, recently informed me that
just in 2016, 1259 books published by this project were sold. For me this is
clear indication of the importance of this particular project and the
"thirst for knowledge" that exists for people looking to learn more about
the communities and people destroyed in the Holocaust.

Other than that, in keeping with our being a never-standing still project,
this past month we received an encouraging number of additions to be added
to our existing projects. These additions come >from our Translation Fund
projects, >from a number of tireless volunteer translators and also from
other good people who have had sections of Yizkor book translated and have
thoughtfully and generously, passed the translations on to us to be added in
online. That's how we keep moving.

And now for details of all the updates and additions that were carried out
in the Yizkor Book Project over February.

characteristics, such as
the number of lines per column, the first letter of each column not being=
the letter Vav, and the
way in which the calfskin was processed, confirm the Torah's

The Torah is no longer kosher and is therefore appropriate to use as an =

The Torah was dedicated on February 13th, the anniversary of the Soviet =

According to Rabbi Yitzchak Goldstein of the organization Machon Ot in =
Israel, who has inspected and
certified this particular Torah, it is >from Hungary and over 120 years =
old. It is written in a style
called Bet Yosef which was common in most Ashkenazic communities. Certain=
characteristics, such as
the number of lines per column, the first letter of each column not being=
the letter Vav, and the
way in which the calfskin was processed, confirm the Torah's
provenance as being >from Hungary.=20

The Torah is no longer kosher and is therefore appropriate to use as an =
artifact to teach future
generations at the Bronx High School of Science Holocaust Museum and =
Studies Center.

The Torah was dedicated on February 13th, the anniversary of the Soviet =
liberation of Budapest.

I have had the same problem with accessing the Lodz ghetto database. The
Lodz Ghetto database is now part of the all Poland database, but I liked
it a lot better when it was a stand alone data base.

My grandmother was born Yocha Choner in Panevezys but used the name
Yocheved when she came to Israel. We have Lithuanian documents for her
under the name Yocha and Israeli documents under the name Yocheved. We
are struggling to prove to the Lithuanian authorities that she is the
same person. Has anyone here come across anything we could use to
prove Yocha and Yocheved are interchangeable as far as Jewish names
are concerned?>

Alexander Beider, A Dictionary of Ashkenazic Given Names 598-600
(Avotaynu 2001) states that Yakhet (final devoicing) and Yokhe are
both derivatives of the biblical name Yokhved.

Welcome

Liverpool University Press is now the proud partner of the Littman
Library of Jewish Civilization. Founded in 1965 by Louis Littman, the
Littman Library of Jewish Civilization has grown to become a leader in
the publication of Jewish studies. We are also delighted to welcome the

Jewish Cultural Studies which are now available on our website.

Polin - established in 1986 by the Institute for Polish-Jewish Studies,

material on all aspects of Polish Jewry. Contributions are drawn >from
many disciplines- history, politics, religious studies, literature,
linguistics, sociology, art, and architecture-and >from a wide variety of
viewpoints.

Ars Judaica - an annual publication of the Department of Jewish Art at
Bar-Ilan University. It showcases the Jewish contribution to the visual
arts and architecture >from antiquity to the present >from a variety of
perspectives, including history, iconography, semiotics, psychology,
sociology, and folklore.

Jewish Cultural Studies - contributes to a greater understanding of the
dimensions of Jewish identity as perceived by Jews and non-Jews. It
explores the cultural dimensions of homeland and diaspora, assimilation
and separation, in Jewish experience and belief along with considering
the range of institutions that represent and respond to Jewishness,
including museums, the media, agencies, synagogues, and schools.
