I listened to a talk by Michael Hoberman, a professor at Fitchburg State in Massachusetts. He gave a talk, and has written a book on Jews of rural New England. Perhaps you can find the book, or even contact him.

My sincere thanks to Josef Ash for his translation of the five Russian language records posted for me  here last Friday by Marty Meyers.  I deeply appreciate having—at long last—detailed information about the marriage of my maternal grandparents.  The unwavering support of this group continues to amaze me.

It was mistake made in the first paragraph of this paper.  Correction of this mistake was shown on the left column.  My translation presented with correction

How about trying Jewishgen's options. See attached screenshot. 

Hi Andrew,

The main shopping street in Lodz was, and still is, Piotrkowska, right in the heart of the city. You can see what it looks like now with Google Street View, and you can find plenty of historical photos of it and of other streets in Lodz just by Googling. There are also historical photos of Lodz in the Polish State Archives website : https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/strona_glowna . And in other Polish websites too. My favorite is a blog called Refotografie run by a Polish photographer called Stefan Brajter who takes photos of Lodz sites now and merges them with historical photos : http://refotografie.blogspot.com/ . (He's also on Facebook, under Refotografie.) I find that it's usually pretty easy to navigate the Polish sites with Google Translate even if you don't speak the language. 

Genealogy Indexer is a wonderful site in which to search pre-war business directories (as well as yizkor books and other sources) from Lodz, and you can often see advertisements as well as directory entries: https://genealogyindexer.org/ .

Best of luck,

Has anyone ever heard of this town in thre pre WWI Austrian empire?

My grandfather was a prominent member of the Jewish community in North Adams, but he didn't move there until 1915. He was the temple president, an ardent Zionist, and donated  to the temple his family torah scroll from Ukraine. But that must be a lot later than what you're seeking. The history page cites him: ". . . under the presidency of Barnet Ark, the United House of Israel engaged its first rabbi, Rabbi Irving Miller."

I have a copy of this book as my great grandfather Robert Lipkin was President and Treasurer if the Hope Place Synagogue in 1888, 1899 and 1800

I have looked through the book but didn’t find anything relevant to your family names

Following on from this discussion thread, I note from the information given in the JC link on the Bangor Community, that Bangor people seemed to have been buried in Green Lane Cemetery in Liverpool.  Would this have applied to other North Wales communities? My grandfather's sister Leah Servian Goldblat died in Mold, in Flintshire aged 26 years in 1894. Her death notice was for Leah Max (the patronymic being Mordecai). I have never been able to find where she is buried and came to the conclusion it was in Green Lane, where many of the records were lost in a fire in 1960. Leah's parents are buried in Rice Lane, Liverpool, but there are a number of other missing family burial sites which I presume to be in Green Lane, for which the records are missing. Is there any hope that the missing grave stones in Green Lanes will be transcribed to provide records?

Many of the pages are a list (with names and dates) of children who were circumcised by the author. Pages 4-6 list the births of his own children, many of who did not survive. On page 7 there is one more circumcision and then he records the death of his wife, Feigel 10 Av 5591. Page 8 is the signature of Shmuel Zanvil son of D. Pages 9 and 10 are in German. Apparently the author was Joseph Davidsohn, and his wife Feigel was called in German 'Fanny Gavriel' (Gavriel being her father's name). Shmuel Zanvil is called in German 'Samuel Joseph Davidsohn' (again using his father's name). I can't follow all of the German, but I notice a mention of cholera. Page 11 is the title page of a Haggada.

Hello Yitschok,

Thank you for your reply. I have received another response privately that matches your interpretation.

However, I have adjusted the colour and brightness of the image to improve the legibility and it seems to me that the first line ends נוספיף על 

I don't speak Hebrew, but presumably the inflection (ending) is significant. Is the text starting to make sense?



The last page of the takanos gives the date as 12 Nisan 495. 

Dear Barry
i have a copy of this book as my great grandfather Robert Lipkin was President and Treasurer if the Hope Place Synagogue in 1898,1899 and 1900
ill have a look through and let you know if I find something relating to your family
