Aubrey Woolf JOEL #southafrica

Jessica Leschnikoff <jessica@...>
 

Dear members,

Having got to several brick walls in recent days, I'm seemingly facing
another one. I am trying to find out the parents of my great uncle Aubrey
Woolf Joel born in 1903 South Africa and died in Jo'burg in 1982. He was
married to my great aunt Barbara Pulvermacher. I have lots of info on
Barbara (who I knew) but hardly anything on Aubrey. >from my other great
aunt's book:

"Aubrey was for many years manager of Harris Hats factory in Johannesburg
(some 40 years, I believe!) until he decided he had had enough, and retired.
He made no use of the fact, but does come >from the well known Joel family;
also his mother was an excellent pianist who studied with Clara Schumann in
her youth."

And that, as they say, is it! Unfortunately, my South African family are
disinclined to help me in my research, and since they live in Cape Town,
they are not in the vicinity of Johannesburg, where Barbara and Aubrey would
have been buried. In fact, I don't even know if they were buried.

I have a strong feeling that the Joel family that my great aunt was
referring to in her book was the Randlord family that included Woolf Joel
and (by marriage) Barney Barnato. I have googled these Joels, but haven't
found a comprehensive family tree for them. The One World Tree on ancestry
does include a few of them but isn't that extensive: I suspect that not all
children >from marriages shown are included.

If anyone could suggest anything, I'd be most grateful. Email me off list
if you would like to contact me directly Jessica@supersoprano.com

Thanks,

Translation Request (Russian) - 1916 Letter from Russia to US #belarus

Hi,
I have a two-page letter (or, possibly, two one-page letters sent
in the same envelope) that I'd like to have translated from
Russian to English. I believe that the letter was sent >from Russia
to my paternal grandmother Rose EINBUND in Pittsburgh in 1916.

My Grandmother's family lived in Parichi (near Shchedrin) in the
Belarus region of Russia. She emigrated to the US in July 1913.

I've posted the pages on Viewmate.
One page is Viewmate # 15145.

Jewish records for L'viv - since when & until when? #ukraine

HelenieIrit
 

Hello genners,

Am a new comer to this SIG. So, please, bear with me.

I was told, that in the archives there are Jewish records for L'viv [Lvov,
Lwow, Lemberg] >from 1801, and already researched them.
According to the FHLC there are Jewish Congregation records since 1791.

How far can I go back with researching L'viv?
Are there really 1791-1800 Jewish BMD/vital records in the Central State
Historical Archives ?

And for the other end: are there any accessible records for 1939-1942 in
L'viv archives [except those in the USC !]?
I know about the "100 years old" Law.
[I know about what there is at Holicaust Museums].

Thank you,

LDS Stuttgart - help pls. #germany

nigel wilson <wilsonettess@...>
 

Dear genners.

I am working with a friend in Stuttgart on a family history of mutual
interest.

I found reference on the LDS site to a great-grandmother b. 1853 in Frankfurt
and death date too. Wanting to either purchase or view these records
we approached the LDS centre in Stuttgart. However the information given
on the site does not give a film number, only a Batch no.
How are we to obtain the records? - here is the response >from the LDS centre
(translated >from the German)

" Unfortunately we are not able to identify the film corresponding to the
batch number, since it has not been indicated. Maybe you can find more
information >from the records on marriage and death about the churches
involved in registration, so that then we could eventually release the
film order via internet through the church book film order"

Can anyone advise us where to go >from here? Thank you in anticipation.

I'm just trying to get a translation (deciphering?) on one word. It
