Kushnevich and other variations #germany

Ellen Barnett Cleary
 

Please excuse me in advance if this message is not appropriate for this
forum.  I can't seem to find one that fits really well and there is such
expertise on this list that I'm hoping someone may be able to help me.

My great grandmother's surname at birth, according to a tree written by
my deceased cousin, was Kushnevich.  My cousin was extremely accurate
about most things but his spelling was not the best. So I am pretty
sure he wrote this as he heard it; I have no idea how correctly it is
spelled.

The only information I have about where this great grandmother was born
is >from the census:
1860 age 22, born Poland
1870 age 31, born  Poland
1880 not found
1900 born May 1840, married 40 years, born Poland (Russ)
1910 age 70, married 52 yrs, born Pol Russian, parents born Pol Russian
1920 age 79, born Poland, parents born Poland

If anyone can tell me what Beider's Dictionary of Jewish Surnames >from
the Kingdom of Poland says about the name.Kushnevich I would be very
grateful.

Nowy Sacz - Seeking Source Records for List of Residents on Kehilalinks Page

Yaron Wolfsthal
 

Dear Group, I'd appreciate help with information about NowySacz records:

In the KehilaLinks web page for Nowy Sacz, there is a list of
residents that used to live in the city.
The title of the list is: "A List of 4,232 Jewish Residents of Nowy
Sacz – Compiled by William Leibner".
I'm investigating two names on this list - Ignacy and Jerzy WOLFSTAL.
The source for the information about them is therein said to be
"Personal Letters/Interviews".

MY QUESTION
-- Can anyone please point me to these "Personal Letters/Interviews"
used in compiling this Nowy Sacz resident list?
(any insight about the surname WOLFSTHAL in that Nowy Sacz will be
of course very helpful).

For reference, the links are:

An Article About Jews Saved During the Holocaust by Polish Diplomats In Switzerland #poland #holocaust

Jan Meisels Allen
 

 

An article that appeared in Poland-In may be of interest to you. The article is  about Jews who were saved during the Holocaust by Polish diplomats in Switzerland working with Jewish groups and using fake Latin American passports. It is called the Ładoś List of documents. The list was published by the Pilecki Institute.  The list has 3,262 names of people who received forged Latin-American passports fabricated by the Ładoś Group.

 

The composition of the index is the fruit of the Pilecki Institute’s collaboration with the Polish Institute of National Remembrance (IPN), the Jewish Historical Institute, the Polish Embassy in Berne and the state Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum - Former German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp.

 

Poles were not the only ones saved as the list also contains names of Dutch, German and other countries listed.


Research found Ładoś Group was closely cooperating with the World Jewish Congress (WJC) and Agudat Israel in 1941-1943.

 

The Ładoś Group issued approximately 8,000 passports. “In terms of archives, we have reached a dead-end,” said Ms. Maniewska, the co-author of the list, adding that viewing private archives could prove helpful for the broadening of the list.

 

The list  was presented on 12 December 2019 at the Pilecki Institute

The list is available at: https://instytutpileckiego.pl/pl/wydarzenia/t?setlang=true

Re: A fascinating Crypto-Jewish history uncovered

Schelly Talalay Dardashti
 

Genie's family moved back and forth from Spain to Portugal, as many converso families did - confirmed by the excellent Spanish and Portuguese archival records. Genie's maternal generations are each fully documented back to 1405 and her paternal line to the 1200s. And, for those who say that is impossible, my own records begin in 1327 Girona and from 1353-1398 in the town of Lleida/Lerida, Catalunya, Spain. On my first visit to the Lleida archives with the amazing genealogist Maria Jose Surribas of Barcelona, I was handed a plain manila folder containing my original 1353 doc and another one from 1202 for the Laby de Cavalleria family. To paraphrase Mel Brooks, "It's good to have a Sephardic line!"

Re: Post 1909 Marriage records and other records #latvia

Arlene Beare
 

Geoge It is a pleasure and thank you for your appreciation. If you
find records in the Database then they exist in the Archives and also
on the Raduraksit site.. Try exploring Jewishgen with the Unified
search which you find as the first option when you click on Databases
in the top menu. Then you can pick which hits to look at as there
will be hits in Poland Latvia Lithuania etc. I would look at all
the Latvia hits. As our families moved around a lot you cannot be
sure they not were >from another Country. Many Latvians were >from
Lithuania.

The Archives can certainly confirm whether the data you have found is
indeed your family. They have told me that they did not marry in Riga.

The Vedomosti were the Daily Newspapers in Courland at that time and
the Latvia Database has records >from the Vedomosti. I am not sure about
newspapers in Riga and will need to check.

What were the Vedomosti? It is always wise to read what each Database
contains and I have copied you the opening paragraph for the Courland
Vedomosti Database. IF you click on the name of the Database then you
can read what it contains. Many researchers just do a search and
never read this important information .

Courland was a separate Gubernia (Province) of the Russian Empire >from
1797 to 1918, with its own provincial Government based at Mitau (now
Jelgava, Latvia). The Kurlyandskiya Gubernskiya Vedomosti, or
Kurlandische Gouvernements-Zeitung was the official newspaper published
every Tuesday and Saturday throughout the year >from 1852-1915. It
contained public announcements, reports of Court cases, "wanted" lists
of people sought by the authorities, details of arrivals in and
departures >from Courland, lists of appointments to various public
bodies, together with a small number of private announcements and
advertisements.

Good luck with your search

Thank you, Arlene, for the information you shared with me. I did a
search of the Jewish Gen Riga Tax Administration List (Fond 1384) using
the surname "Mosessohn" (Lithuanian spelling) rather than "Mozeson"
(Polish spelling) and came up with 10 identifiable ancestors !

Now, does this mean that I should be able to find more specific
information about these family members in current data bases or the
Latvian Archives, or does this mean that there once was more
information about them but it may or may not exist any longer?

Also, for clarification, back around 1909 - 1912, would people have
published marriage announcements in the local Riga papers? Is there a
specific newspaper that Jews were more likely to use for such
announcements?

Seeking Plottnovsky/Platowski or Jacobs male family descendants #unitedkingdom

Jill Whitehead
 

A recent DNA test has shown that an apparent US close relation is likely
related to the unknown brothers of my great grandmother Bertha Plottnovsky
Guttenberg (c 1845-1921) and her sister Rebecca Plottnovsky Berkowitz, who
was 20 years younger. They were the eldest and youngest in their
Plottnovsky/Platnowski family with brothers in between. But we know nothing
about their brothers, their names or where they went to. Bertha and Rebecca
came >from Raczki in Suwalki Gubernia and their respective husbands came from
Rajgrod in Lomza gubernia in NE Poland and Kovno in Kovno gubernia, in
Lithuania nearby. They came to Hull in respectively c 1865 and c 1885. We do
know that the sisters sometimes used their father's name Jacob as a
patronymic so there could be descendants with the name Jacobs or variations
on Plottnovsky such as Plotz or similar. The US relation had family who went
to London, South Africa, and USA. I am initially wondering if a brother may
have gone to Hull or London before 1900.

If you can help or have any ideas please contact me privately.

Lithuanian Jews Deported to Sibera After German-Soviet Pact of 1939 #belarus

Maxine Mindel <maxinemindel@...>
 

I have not been successful in finding records of names of Jews from
Panevezys Lithuania who were deported to Siberia following the German Soviet
Pact of 1939. I have recently located and made contact with a descendant of
such a relative who survived the deportation. I am told her family was able
to find her after WW II via assistance >from the Red Cross, and brought her
to Israel about 1955 and later to Rhodesia where they were living. Are
there searchable records that may reflect any of these events? Thank you!

Re: Looking for a grave in Galatz Jewish Cemetery #romania

Orit Lavi
 

Dear friends,

Yefim Kogan asked about graves >from Galatz, 1933 - 1936.

As of 2015, the Jewish Community in Galatz maintained hand-written mapping
boards of the cemetery, >from 1940 onwards.
They did not have burial info >from earlier years. As of 2015, older plots of
graves were hardly accessible, and the graves were fully covered with
tangled vegetation.

The Galatz Jewish community kept then a very detailed census >from 1941. They
planned to submit it to Yad Vashem, and I don't know if it was done.

Vital records >from less than hundred years were kept at Biraul Stare Civila
Galati, Str. Traian Block A4. However the officers there were not willing to
cooperate.

Financial support for the SIGs? #bessarabia

Tom Chatt
 

I was just making my annual donation to JewishGen.org and noticed that they
no longer have options to add ear-marked donations to go to the special
interest groups (SIGs) like this one. I guess I haven't been paying close
enough attention to all of the organizational changes at JewishGen. Are the
SIG projects, especially the local work of documenting cemeteries and
finding local records, still supported by JewishGen? How does that work now?

Thanks,
