Why Is This Father's Name Listed as Abram Haskiel? #poland

Jeff Jacobs
 

I would appreciate anyone's thoughts on why the name of a father in a
birth record is listed as "Abram Haskiel Szwartz" when I know that the
same father, Abram, and his wife Szajna had a son named Haskiel.

Here is the background. In the Mlawa B-M-D index, there are two
Szwartz families: Jciek and Dwojra, and Abram and Szajna. Jciek and
Dwojra are my ggg grandparents. I believe Jciek and Abram were
brothers, but I need some evidentiary help to establish that.

Jciek is very definitely the son of Haskiel and Sura. I have his
marriage record, and his parents are listed. Also, Jciek is listed in
that record as Jciek Haskielowicz Szwartz.

I don't have a marriage record for Abram, and his death record does
not list his parents, so I can't establish the identity of his father.
However, Abram had a son named Haskiel and a daughter named Sura.
Other family evidence leads me to conclude that there is a
relationship between the descendants of Abram and those of Jciek, and,
if that's the case, Abram and Jciek must have been brothers, since
their surname likely would have been adopted by their father (Jciek
was born in about 1818, and I am guessing that Abram was married in
the late 1820s, so, if they're brothers, then both were presumably
living with Haskiel Szwartz when surnames came into being in the early
1820s).

In the birth record of two other sons of Abram, Abram is listed as
Abram Haskiel Szwartz. Only one record is indexed this way; the other
is indexed as Abram Szwartz. So, my question: What is the significance
of the second name, "Haskiel," in these birth records? It can't be
Abram's name, since he had son named Haskiel (I know this >from Abram's
death record and his son Haskiel's marriage record, and I can trace
the son Haskiel's descendants >from Poland to England to the USA; the
other family evidence I alluded to connects Haskiel's descendants to
my family). Abram's name in these birth records is very clearly not
written "Haskielowicz," either in the records themselves or in the one
index entry. Could Abram's second name, Haskiel, in these two birth
records be a patronymic?

Community Lists: Augsburg #germany

Lande
 

In 1946 the Central Committee for Liberated Jews sent questionnaires to
Landrats throughout the United States zone in Germany asking a series of
questions, including information on former Jewish residents in their areas.
The quality of the replies, available in the USHMM collection 68.096M, vary
widely, >from responses that simply stated that there were no longer any
resident Jews, to brief summaries of what happened to the former community,
etc. A few also listed former residents and what had happened to them. I
am gradually going through this substantial collection and will identify
those collections that may be of interest to Gersig researchers.

One of the first, with a substantial listing of prewar residents and their
fates is Augsburg. I would be prepared to make copies of the Augsburg pages
if there is anyone prepared to enter the names and relevant information into
a database for Gersig/Jewishgen. If anyone is interested, preferably
someone with a real interest in Augsburg, please contact me.

I will continue to go through the collection and will report on other
significant town collections.

Hello Jewishgenners. I was just about to post certain questions about part

originally back in 1997.
So now I am focusing on whether there is data out there for the family name
JAFFE in Zembin (now Belarus) near Barysaw, Belarus today. I had a
great-great-grandmother >from there, and my old postings indicated that her
husband Yerucham ZISELMAN lived in Zembin before or after they lived in
Stary-Borisov.
