I find the date inscription very interesting - it gives both the Julian and Gregorian calendar date.  And this was in 1901 - 16 years before Russia (Russian Empire) adopted the Gregorian calendar.

I went and look on Jewishgen, for both the Suwalki and Vilna gubernia records, to see what comes up when the Sounds Like search is done for 
Serebrowsky and for Serhowsky.

There are definitely records for Serebrowsky, and also Srebowski, and other similar spellings. For Serhowsky, records come up for surnames Serokovski, Sharakowsky, Czerechowski, Sarkowsky, and similar spellings. 

So, either surname may be correct. I think only more records that contain the mother's surname will settle this issue.

Strong family lore claims that Rabbi Isaac S. HUREWITZ , (d.1935) who
served till his death in Hartford, Ct. USA was a relative of my
ABRAMOWITZ family. The people of the ABRAMOWITZ who spoke and wrote
about it have deceased. Both families originated in Novarodok and
left there during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, to Israel
and to the USA. To the states that I know of was the above Rabbi
HUREWITZ and to Petach Tikva (Israel) was a R' Shimon HUREWITZ.
One possibility of this connection may be a sibling relation between a
Rabbi David (family name unknown) ben Moshe of Kletzk, who served as
the Rav of Novardok during the 19th century, and my 5 x
greatgrandfather ABRAMOWITZ.

I should add that when my great great grandmother, Gittle ABRAMOWITZ
left Novarodok to come to the USA she came to New Haven, Ct. . My
grandfather, Chaim Yitzchak ABRAMOWITZ who emmigrated from Israel to
the USA, around 1930 first came to Hartford, Ct. Was it because they
had a cousin in Ct. ?

If anyone knows the exact connection between the two above families I
would be happy to hear.

I am referring to a close blood connection and not a distant in-law
relationship which I presume there are.

I would appreciate if someone can please translate this headstone. My paternal grandmother Scheindel (Yetta) Bogach is from Malkin or Malkinia and I believe this might be a relative of hers. Her father was Motel Bogacz.
Any information would be helpful

Hello,

You may benefit from the book on Jews (with transcriptions of many vital records) from Novi Sad by Radovan Sremac. He is a wonderful and dedicated scholar (non-Jew) trying to preserve the history of the general area. I bought many of his books from him and broker through several brick walls on my Croatian ancestry.

Hi Jan and All -

I just looked up a family member, who is listed as being in ff 66-69, but who actually shows up in ff 71. So, the indexing may be a bit off and require a bit more searching then indicated in the document titled, Posizioni archivistiche on-line (c. positions in the online archives).

Thanks to you and Victoria Fisch.

I am looking for a family tree template (program) that I can easily create a family tree to save. Ancestry.com has a good one however I don't want to pay their monthly fee forever just to keep the tree active.

Thanks,

Have been searching for rather distant relative from now Novi Sad, Serbia, then Ujvidek in Austria-Hungary. I have managed to find these persons in the Jewish Census of 1848. Now I am trying to go further back in time. I have been studying Aca Judaeorum, films 1529693-99, 1725-1775, but with no success. It seems that these documents are not appliable to the actual city. I now wonder if I have misunderstood the content in this documents?
Of course if some one can give me some advice to come further in my search I would be gratreful or if I ought to give it all up?
My research is about a sephardic family Almoslino which came from Spain  in connection to the Inquisition and they landed probably somewhere by the Adriatic coast. Later, perhaps, they lived in Belgrade, from where they moved to the town of Ujvidek. This latter information I have got from one Pavles Schossbergers books about jewish families in Novi Sad.
