Researching Eduard (Edward) STEIN #austria-czech

klbrsea@...
 

I am seeking information about the family of my GGF, Eduard (Edward) STEIN,
born Feb 15, 1839 in Weitentrebetitsch, Bohemia.

This is my first post to this list. I am relatively new to family history
research but comfortable with computer searches. My research to date is based
on family documents I inherited and records I have gleaned >from Ancestry and
Familysearch. I have not had luck tracing family members using JewishGen and
I have not attempted any research abroad. Unfortunately, I do not
speak or read German, old German, or Czech.

Before emigrating to the U.S. ca. 1868, Edward was a teacher and cantor and
I have letters of recommendation in old German which he brought with him >from
schools in Libochowitz, Rakonitz, Eger and Prague (I paid to have these
translated). One is signed by Jakob Frey, another by Rabbi B. Altar, one
by a Hermann Stein (no idea if related), and one by his future father-in-law,
Nephthali Zuckermann. A certificate documenting Eduard's birth
is signed by a Benjamin Stein (again, I have no idea if this is a relative).
I was told that Edward was descended >from "many generations of Rabbi Steins,"
but I have not been able to confirm that fact.

Per the birth certificate, Edward was born to Moses Simon
STEIN and Eleanor (Elenora) BAYER and he had a twin. Elenora's parents were
Pinkas Baroch BAYER >from Lichtenstadt and Amalia FEIGL >from Kirchenberg.
I have no additional information about these individuals.

A note found in my father's effects suggests that Edward was one of
14 siblings. I also have no information on these individuals and I would
like to know their names, sexes, DOBs, DODs, if they emigrated, where they
might have settled, if they married, had children, etc.

Edward married Wilheminia ZUCKERMANN (Mina ZUCKERMAN in this country),
born Sept. 1844 in Germany. I do not know when or where they married.
She also emigrated to NYC ca. 1868 but she and Edward do not
seem to have arrived in New York together if the immigration records I have
found are the correct ones. However, they are listed as a married couple
with a new baby, my grandfather Maximillian Zuckerman STEIN, in the 1870 U.S.
Federal census for NYC.

Wilhelmina's parents were Nephthali ZUCKERMANN (1813-1873) and Johanna KOHN
(1816-1884).
See: http://encyklopedie.cheb.cz/en/osudy-a-tvare-chebu/naphtali-zuckermann-14900
I have also found a pdf in German in the American Jewish Archives about Nephthali
Zuckermann and the Jewish community of Eger but have not yet found a translation.

Per my father's notes, Nephthali's parents were Moses ZUCKERMANN (b. 1777)
and Rosina STRASS (b. 1779).

Johanna's parents were Jacob KOHN and Maria Charlotte Kohn FISCHL (no DOBs
give; her birthplace is listed as Tehmohan(?), circle of Eger).

Jacob KOHN's father is listed as Israel KOHN >from Schoenlind.

Wilhelmina was one of 9 children. I know the names of all of them and their spouses,
approximately half of whom emigrated to the U.S. Most of the rest perished in the
Holocaust. Those who ostensibly survived the war in Europe, I have been unable to trace.

I do not know of anyone with the last name STEIN to whom I am related as my
father was an only child and his only paternal uncle never married.

I would be most grateful for any suggestions or leads on any branches of the family!
Please respond to: klbrsea@yahoo.com

My thanks in advance for your help and my apologies for cross-posting.

Re: Death of Pascal Faustini #france

I was very saddened by the announcement of the passing of Pascal
Faustini. He helped me innumerable times and once, but only once,I
was able to return the favor. His patience and his kindness will be
sorely missed. His immense knowledge is partially recorded in the
books he wrote/compiled. May his family be comforted by their
memories, and by the knowledge that he was greatly admired and
respected by a host of genealogists.

May we share good news,

Difficult Town Name #general

Pat Fuller
 

Dear Genners - I have a doozy of a town name for you. This is a birthplace
listed on a relative's World War I draft card, and the handwriting is very
legible. The town is Metrockfanevka chasan, Russia. I have looked this up
on the JewishGen Town Finder, Communities Page, and Gazetteer, as well as
"Where Once We Walked." I have tried searching on various portions of the
name, to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas? The person's name is Jack
Samuel LEVIN. I do not have his parents' or siblings' names. His wife was
born in Lithuania. His children were born in Minneapolis, MN.

You can reply to me at the above e-mail address. Thanks for your help.
