Warsaw KehilaLink #poland

Eli Rabinowitz
 

I am pleased to advise I have taken on the important project of creating
and running the Warsaw KehilaLink.

It is quite surprising that there has been no KehilaLink for Warsaw,
once the largest Jewish city in Europe and the second largest in the
world after New York.

JewishGen KehilaLinks (formerly "ShtetLinks") is a project
facilitating web pages commemorating the places where Jews have lived.

Kehila [Hebrew] n. (pl. kehilot): is used to refer to a Jewish
community, anywhere in the world.

KehilaLinks are hosted by JewishGen, the world's largest Jewish
genealogical organisation. It has a user base of over 500,000 registered
users worldwide.

I invite you to send in your stories, memories, photos and family
biographies.

If you are attending the IAJGS conference in Warsaw, and would like to
learn more about this or my other 84 KehilaLinks, please come to my
presentation:

Back >from the Polish and Litvak Diaspora: Virtual Journeys That
Connect Us To Our Roots, on Thursday 9 August 4-5pm.

I am also presenting on the Partisans' Song (Project), often
associated with the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, on Tuesday 7 August 4-5pm.

Re: Yellow Star House in Budapest #hungary

Susanna Vendel
 

Looking at the link I found as date of the original documents (page no
2) as 1st June 1944.

My father mentions in his memories that the Governement issued in 1943
a decision that Jews (even those in forced labor units) were allowed
to continue to work in the companies if these companies were
considered belonging to the National Defense.

Your grandfather who was an engineer, was probably one of the persons
who were allowed to live in a regular house to be able to continue to
work for the Company.

In the original document there are two columns with notations showing
that Rezso Gabor was an engineer at Szandai Granit mines and in one of
the columns the owner of the house mentions that R.G. is leader of the
department for constructions at the National Defense and that (if I
understand well Hungarian - this is to be checked!!) "his situation is
still under research".

I hope other people more knowledgeable in history and Hungarian will
be willing to check that and correct me.

Dear Michele,

You make a statement that is not quite correct: "this is not a Yellow Star =
house, but rather, Jews who are required to wear the Yellow Star are not pe=
rmitted to live here"=20

It's a little more complicated than that: it appears that Jews who had to w=
ear the yellow star were in fact allowed to live in there. The document lis=
ts all residents in the house by ownership or whether they are the main ren=
ters of the apartment. There is only one owner (who it seems owns the build=
ing) and she is not required to wear the yellow star. But of the renters, t=
here are two (including your grandfather) who are required to wear the yel=
low star (ie. they are Jews). (And two apartments are empty because the ow=
ners have been "removed" - either forcibly moved out or had been asked/told=
to leave.) =20

There is no date that I can see on the document (just the year 1944) or any=
mention of whether the house was designated a yellow star house or not. As=
far as I know, >from about the middle of June 1944 the city of Budapest des=
ignated certain apartment buildings in which only Jews were supposed to liv=
e and these became known as Yellow Star houses because a yellow star had to=
be fixed on the outside of the building. (This was part of an effort to co=
ncentrate Jews for an eventual further deportation after the countryside wa=
s emptied of its Jews - this of course did not happen anymore as the Allies=
were beginning to win the war). But there were other buildings in which =
Jews lived and some of these also became known as Yellow Star houses. Obvi=
ously it was a complicated thing to check and supervise all buildings as to=
how many Jews lived in them and some could "hide" their Jewishness; althou=
gh the authorities made an effort to find out - and that is why such forms=
as this one had to be filled in (interesting that they did not have to wri=
te on the form "Jew" but instead whether they had to wear the star or not..=
.). The concierges had the role of declaring if the tenants were required =
to wear the yellow star (all Jews had to) or not. So some Jews were able to=
avoid being "detected" as Jews; they could bribe the concierge, etc. Your=
grandfather and family may have been able to hide for the remainder of the=
war (and of course it made little difference that they had converted...).

There is a fair amount of information about the Yellow Star houses (and som=
e has been shared on this list, eg the Open Society Archives had a project =
in 2014 with a list, map, and the history of these houses. ) By the way, =
Jews living in Yellow Star houses had to move into the Budapest ghetto in N=
ovember of 1944 (the Hungarian Arrow Cross government which came to power i=
n mid October 1944 was still hoping to get rid of the remaining Jews and k=
illed many thousands of them between October and the liberation of Budapest=
in Feb 1945).

Hope you find more information...

Re: 1933 Budapest Death Records on FamilySearch #hungary

HungarianRoots
 

Dear Moishe, dear all,

Budapest had 14 districts until the end of 1949, that is when all the curre=
ntly existing 23 districts were set up incorporating former suburban towns.=

I think the street you meant is Hollo utca, between Kiraly and Dob utca. Th=
is area is district VI. currently. So you should check records for this dis=
trict.
If it does not work then check nearby VII. and if that does not have it, di=
stricts VIII. and IX. where most of the nearby hospitals were.

I hope it helps.

Subject: [h-sig] 1933 Budapest Death Records on FamilySearch

Hello Fellow Researchers,

I understand that Family Search has death records online with digital image=
s for Budapest, well into the 20th century. I do not believe they are index=
ed. Budapest records seem to be divided among many districts.

My great-grandmother, Cirel Jurowicz, passed away 1 Sivan, 5693, which corr=
esponds to May 24/25, 1933. She lived on Holla Utza in the Jewish Quarter o=
f Budapest. It is right off Dob Utza which is the main street in that distr=
ict. Would anyone know which record group I would be paging through at Fami=
lySearch in order to locate her death record?

Thank you,
