Galicia cemeteries #galicia

Joseph Hirschfield
 

I have recently returned >from a visit to several shtels is Galicia where I
have taken pictures of what once were cemeteries, but now have no visible
signs that the grounds were once used for Jewish burials. These are in Glinyany,
Kamionka Strumilowa (the cemetery site across >from the railroad station),
and in Bialy Kamen (the cemetery site across >from the Christian cemetery).

I have pictures too of the mass grave in Kamionka Strumilowa and also the
mass grave in Zloczow which has a new monument that was dedicated last month.
I can send digital pictures to those of you who have a family interest in
these gravesites.

Ekaterinoslav section at Old Montefiore Cemetery, NY #ukraine

Hilary Henkin
 

Dear group,
When I was in New York City in August, I visited Old Montefiore
Cemetery to pay my respects to my ancestors.

Apparently, the landsmanshaften section they're in, the "Relief
Association of Ekaterinoslaw", has been a well-kept secret. It's not
listed under "Old Montefiore Cemetery" on the JewishGen Cemetery
Project, and I found an online reference to it only in one resource
(which I can't find again).

I took about a dozen photos of gravestones while I was there, but
didn't have time to document the entire section, which probably has
150-200 graves.

Has anyone investigated this, or done any documentation? If I lived
there, I'd be glad to document the section, but it's rather a long
drive >from my home of Atlanta, Georgia. Are there any New Yorkers
with Ekat. roots interested in documenting it for the JewishGen
Worldwide Burial Project? I'd be glad to fine-tune the photographs
prior to submission, but I can't help with translating or
photographing the stones.

I haven't phoned the cemetery yet, to ask them about a list of the
graves; I thought I'd ask here first before bothering them.

In 1999, I posted a list of the names on the gates to Ukraine-SIG
<http://data.jewishgen.org/wconnect/wc.dll?jg~jgsys~sigsview~14133~ekaterinoslav+montefiore~360;10>
or search those archives for <ekaterinoslav + montefiore>. Now I'd
like to get the rest of the names shared, or increase the awareness
of the association's existence.

Any suggestions welcomed.

A heartwarming story, available exclusively in the JewishGenMall #austria-czech

Carol W. Skydell <cskydell@...>
 

In simple prose laced with frequent comments demonstrating a wry
sense of humor, Peninah Rosin tells the story of her "Flight to
Survival" >from Wloclawek to Eretz Yisrael during the years 1939 to 1945.

This is a personal narrative that can only be described as
heartwarming, full of demonstrable courage in the face of
despair. It is not a lengthy book, but worth reading if one wants to
understand what it was like for a seventeen year old to be faced with
Nazi invasion and the resultant disintegration of her close-knit
family unit. Peninah Rosin's book is a compelling read, a story not
soon forgotten. It is a book that is appropriate for teenagers as
well as adults.

If you are in the U.S.or Canada use product code JGI102 to
order If you are not in either of those two countries, please
use product code JGI102I

Proudly published by JewishGen, the book is available for only
$18.50 plus S&H. www.jewishgenmall.org

Re: Czechoslovakia did not exist before 1918 #austria-czech

Tomer Brunner <tomerbr@...>
 

always taught that "grandpa sam" was czech...
according to my research, SAMUEL NEUWIRTH was born in 1868 in austria

The sister of my g-g-grandmother, Sara Gitel (Gusti) ZWIRN (died 1932),
was wife of Mr. NEUWIRTH (first name unknown yet).

They lived in Ungvar, which was first under Hungarian control, later Czech
(and then called Uzhhorod) and currently its located in Ukraine
(and called Uzhgorod).

Maybe this can give a clue as for where to start looking for Samuel
