On the Special Inquiry page,also on a Detained Aliens page are two
columns: Group and Number These identify the main manifest page and the
line where the passenger can be found. The Group identifier is usually a
large letter (sometimes a number) in the upper right or upper left of
each manifest page.

So, my question is whether it would be worth my while to search the
entire ship passenger manifest for another more typical entry listing
Israel Gordon as a passenger, which entry would include the typically
expected data such as age, occupation, person to meet at destination, etc.

The S.I. page should have two columns to the right of the passenger's
name labelled "Group" and "Number". These are the manifest "page
number" (handwritten or typewritten page number on the manifest) and
line number where you will find the full manifest for the passenger of
interest.

ViewMate requests in Russian, late 1890s Poland records #general

David W. Perle
 

Hi, all. I have two death certificates >from the late 1890s in
Kalisz, Poland, that I would love to please receive full translations
of.

There's also a birth certificate of a little girl who was
apparently born soon after one of them died and named after them, and
I would love to just get the basic details about her, particularly who
her parents were. (I don't really need the full translation. Just
the basic personal details such as date, parents and their parents
assuming that's given, occupations, whatever else?)

Thanks to all who provide these translations, it is so helpful and
appreciated!

Old Guard Regiment of NYC #general

John Anderson
 

My great grandfather, Solomon ANDERSON (1856-1930), was born in
Poughkeepsie, New York. I know he was a member of the Old Guard
regiment of NYC since an obituary notice placed by the Old Guard of
the City of New York refers to him as Captain Sol ANDERSON. He died 07
Mar 1930, and the funeral was in Temple Emanu-El on March 9. I also
have a photograph of him marching down Broadway with his regiment
dressed in the full Old Guard regalia (beaver hats, etc.).

I have never been able to confirm this, however, despite many years
searching. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can get information
about his service?

Help deciphering Hebrew abbreviations on tombstones #general

Carol Hoffman
 

I'm hoping someone can help me with translating abbreviations I have
found on tombstones in Lithuania. I have the abbreviations in Hebrew
characters and can send the short list to anyone who might be able to
help me with that. The challenge is not the dates but the
abbreviations describing the person or his/her situation.

Please write to me privately.

Thank you.

Genealogist Ron Arons to give two presentations at JGSI Sept. 25 meeting #general

events@...
 

Expert Jewish genealogist and author Ron Arons will deliver two
informative presentations at the Sunday, Sept. 25, 2016, meeting of the
Jewish Genealogical Society of Illinois, starting at 1 p.m. at Temple
Beth-El, 3610 Dundee Road, Northbrook, Ill.

The titles of his talks at this special meeting will be "Putting the
Flesh on the Bones" and "Evaluating Evidence: Asking a mini-Minnie
Question."

Ron Arons calls "Putting the Flesh on the Bones" his "bread and butter
talk" that he has given for 15 years. Through two related examples he
explains how one can piece together ancestors' lives by collecting as
much documentation about them as possible as well as by looking at the
environments where they lived. The process he describes can enable a
genealogist to go beyond the names, dates, and places commonly
associated with genealogical research.

With his other presentation, "Evaluating Evidence: Asking a mini-Minnie
Question," Arons explains that researching the lives of our ancestors is
a big task, but to evaluate evidence, one needs to examine the bits and
pieces of our research.

When he found the bigamy case of his great-grandfather Isaac Spier, he
wanted to know what happened to Spier's second wife, Minnie Ott. Arons
will present the basic constructs of analyzing documents and evidence,
i.e., the genealogical proof standard, pointing to the research
question: How many times did Minnie Ott marry? In this presentation, he
will apply the evaluation theory to the documents he located toward the
resolution of this question.

Arons has given more than 250 presentations internationally, and has
authored three books, "The Jews of Sing Sing: Gotham Gangsters and
Gonuvim"; "WANTED!: U.S. Criminal Records Sources & Research
Methodology," and "Mind Maps for Genealogy: Enhanced Research Planning,
Correlation, and Analysis."

Illinois schedule of future events can be seen at
