AUBREY JACOBUS <aajacobus@...>
All Jewish males should have a Sacred name given at their circumcision to
be used on all religious occasions ( eg in synagogue ) - they may adopt any name they wish for everyday use ( known as a kinnui ) . On civil documents you expect to find the kinnui used - but quite often a Yiddish equivalent of the Sacred name is used as a kinnui . There is no rule I know for females as Orthodox women have no Synagogue role - but most families apply the same rule to girls. One even sees Kinnui sometimes used on gravesstones Liba is a fairly common girls name. My Litvak( Lithuanian )step grandmaother was Liba. There is however a male version Liber. Both are kinnui.

Re: Pogroms in the Ukraine @1919 - downloadable book

There is a book about these pogroms.In 1921 Heifetz had presided or was presiding the All-Ukrainian Relief Committee for the Victims of the Pogroms, operating under Red Cross auspices. The book was written at about a time when my grandmother was almost thrown off a racing train while other Jewish passengers were being attacked. My mother was born in 1921. And some months later the family was escaping by illegally moving to the border (with fake invitation letters to an inexistent wedding in a border town, and uncles wearing military uniforms, just in case they should impress anyone on board the train). The family then walked away in different groups, and with different lucks. My closer family crossed on a dark night with a group of Jews and a guide/extorter through the border woods. When my baby mother cried in the arms of my grandmother she placed everyone in the group in risk of being discovered, and killed or jailed. The guide told my grandmother that she should better silence the baby, or he would do it, definitely. My mother behaved. Every now and then I realize I can write this, for example, because my baby mother behaved that night. Time ago I saved the link to the complete online version of this book edited in 1921. It was supplied in a message to the UkraineSIG by Allan Dolgow. You can find the book online at the Harvard University website in http://ocp.hul.harvard.edu/immigration/outsidelink.html/http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:FHCL:933117 Shorter version: http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:FHCL:933117 The website includes a full scan, which can be read online or converted to Adobe's pdf format and saved to read it off-line (click on Printable Version). I am not doing that now but the pdf file I obtained when I did it weighed 30.5 MB. As for Boyarka, a search in the Yizkor Books Project database in http://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/database.html yields no results, either for town name (DM-Soundex), or for global text keyword search, Boyarka or Bojarka. The scan online for Heifetz's book can not be directly queried for keywords and requires browsing. I have not read the book completely but while browsing did not come across an alphabetical index for town name mentions. The number of scanned images including titles is 416, for page number reaching 408. This is the index: [Title Section] [pp. unnumbered pages (seq. 1-2)] PREFACE [pp. I-IV (seq. 3-6)] CONTENTS [pp. V-unnumbered page (seq. 7-8)] CHAPTER I SOCIAL AND POLITICAL CAUSES [pp. 1-20 (seq. 9-28)] CHAPTER II THE DIRECTORY [pp. 21-56 (seq. 29-64)] CHAPTER III THE BATKO [pp. 57-83 (seq. 65-91)] CHAPTER IV THE SOVIET POWER [pp. 84-98 (seq. 92-106)] CHAPTER V THE DENIKIN REGIME [pp. 99-122 (seq. 107-130)] CHAPTER VI SELF-DEFENSE [pp. 123-140 (seq. 131-148)] CHAPTER VII POGROM PICTURES--A FEW EPISODES [pp. 141-174 (seq. 149-182)] CHAPTER VIII RESULTS [pp. 175-182 (seq. 183-190)] APPENDIX [pp. 183-408 (seq. 191-416)] SUPPLEMENT TO CHAPTER II [pp. 185-234 (seq. 193-242)] SUPPLEMENT TO CHAPTER III [pp. 235-408 (seq. 243-416)] Hope this helps, Carlos Glikson |

His co-owner was Mr. NEMECEK, who sold the business to his son Joe. "I hated this business," says Joe Nemecek, who bought Adolf Kusy Co., Fine Pork and Provisions from his father in 1985. "I came back fromVietnam and drove an 18-wheeler. I loved to cook and wanted to be a chef. I'd been accepted at the Culinary Institute, when a bunch of guys quit on my father. He was in trouble, but it took him a month to call me. Finally he talked to my mother, and she called my ex-wife. I got into it completely against my will. That was 25 years ago." Adolf Kusy, who died in 1996 at the age of 105, started in the lamb business in 1934, and Nemecek's father joined him a number of years later.

Finding roots in the Czech Republic
#austria-czech
danielat1@...
Tony Hausner has asked for suggestions for guides and other resources.
Following the Fiedler book he mentions which is an important resource there have been a few other similar but more recent guides to Jewish sites and monuments published for both Bohemia and Moravia. "Zidovske pamatky Cech" - Jewish Monuments in Bohemia by Blanka Rozkosna and Pavel Jakubec was published 2004 in Brno by ERA. Like Fiedler it lists each town and city and describes existing sites for both synagogues and cemeteries. Some of text is in English but it is predominantly in Czech. A similar publication was written by Jaroslav Klenovsky for Moravia and published in 2001 by the same publisher. Its title is " Zidovske pamatky Moravy a Slezska- Jewish monuments of Moravia and Silesia. Both these guides have maps and detailed drawings of some of the better preserved towns. I would also strongly recommend a visit online before you leave home to the Jewish Communities in Prague and Brno as both websites have links to cemetery sites and all sorts of useful information. Some of it is in English. The Jewish Museum of Prague is also worth looking at online before you go there. A lot of Czech towns and cities have websites these days and they welcome tourism. There are a number of Jewish tour specialist mainly based in Prague. Write to me privately if you want details. I would be happy to send my notes on how to do Czech genealogy which includes some contact names and addresses. Regards Daniela Torsh Sydney |

Then fast forward to: http://www.hugogold.com/bohemia/benesov.pdf {in Czech which I do not read] I can see no mention of it either in this article. This Nahosice [if it exists] was probably a tiny litle place with one or two Jewish families with distilling concessions as implied in the tiny URL and in the 1793 census. There is no reason to mention it in the Fiedler book, unless there was a significant Jewish presence, a cemetery, synagogue etc. Nahosice has no chapter devoted to it in Hugo Gold either.

The more I read about Neuern, near the Bavarian border, which is awash with BLOCH PLOCH and even ECKSTEIN {Tony's family names}, the more I wonder if there is not a close connection between this place - centre of the Bohemian feather industry - and the elusive Nahosice in the Klattauer kreis. However BLOCH and ECKSTEIN are very common names - so we must beware of hasty conclusions. But are there really two Nahosice - Nahoschitz in Berauner and Klattauer kreis respectively?
