Re: Happy New Year #bessarabia

Dear Bessarabian,

I wish all of you the best in the New 2018!

Here is a verse I got >from my 'romanian' relative Morel >from Israel I found him recently using Yad Vashem site:

2018
La multi ani
Cu sarmale si cu vin
Si cu portofelul plin

Translating >from Romanian:

2018
For many years
with chicken and wine
and with your wallet full

Yad Vashem holds a lot of information in their databases...
Here is the short version of my story: My great grandfather Khaim Khaimovich had a brother Srul, who
lived with his large family in Galatz, Romania before the WWII. After the war my family did not have any
information >from Srul, and thought the worst happened.  Yes, it was a tragedy, where all but one
daughter of Srul were killed in Odessa, and one daughter remained in Galatz, wore yellow star and
survived... and her son Morel posted 36 (!) Pages of Testimony at Yad Vashem about 15 years ago.

This is how we found Morel and his family and fate of all Srul's children and grandchildren.

All the best,

Re: Cahul Ghetto Monument #bessarabia

Hi everybody,

This is my third and last posting for helping Jewish community in Moldova to erect a Monument
for victims of Cahul Ghetto.
Please go to this site and donate $10, $18 or $5...
https://www.tkfgen.org/cahul.html

We cannot sit idle and not helping Jews around the world, and especially in the region we have our
ancestors from.
I understand that most of you do not know even where small town of Cahul is, but your donations
will help to honor our brethren to be remembered. In a number of towns in Bessarabia, Moldova there
are monuments for Jews perished in the Holocaust. You can find it in Dubossary, Kishinev, Orgeev,
Beltsy, others.. but there is nothing in Cahul!! Let's help.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Aglasterhausen Children's Home, Germany #germany

Alex Magocsi
 

Recently my "Uncle Joe" passed away.
He was a survivor of Auschwitz and was a resident of the above referenced Home.

This home was also known as:
The Aglasterhausen Home for Orphaned and Unaccompanied Children
and was in operation as a displaced persons' (DP) camp >from early
1946 to late 1948.

As a way to remember Uncle Joe, I decided to research Aglasterhausen
and stumbled upon two photographs at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum
of some of the "children" >from the home and, as a nice surprise,
Uncle Joe is shown in one. The two photographs were donated by a
private person.

I have searched the internet quite a bit in my search for information,
especially photos, regarding this Children's Home, searching both the
USHMM and the digital collections of the International Tracing Service
(ITS Arolsen).

I am writing today to see if any of the readers of this list have any
photographs >from the referenced Children's Home.

I suspect that there are photographs in private hands and I suspect
there are others who may be interested in seeing such photos.
