Joan,
Tatyana may be right about Bieżuń. I see on the 1884 Manhattan birth cert of their daughter Dora GOLDBERG, that Lena's maiden name was VANGER. https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/83581 A soundex search for VANGER finds the name occurs in Bieżuń records as WENGER. GOLDBERG also appears in the town's records, but GOLDBERG is also a very common name. Did Davis GOLDBERG belong to a landsmanshaftn? That could be a clue to his town. Good luck in your search,

Diane,
Possibly I.O.B.B. is Independent Order B’nai Brith. https://www.bnaibrithuk.org/history-of-bnai-brith/ "Discussions took place regarding the group’s expansion to Britain, and the First Lodge of England was founded in 1910 at thhttps://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Jewish_Year_Book/MzBMW-FJZM8C?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=%22Lodge+G.O.I.%22&pg=PA71&printsec=frontcovere home of Charles G. Montefiore in the City of London. Two years later another was established in Manchester with Israel Sieff and Chaim Weizmann on its council; they were to have influence on B’nai B’rith’s attitude to Zionism." The 1924 Jewish Yearbook lists several groups in England with "G.O.I." in the title. They are listed under the heading "London Friendly Societies." And, there is this listed under "Provincial Friendly Societies" Manchester, Rev. J.H. Valentine Lodge, G.O.I. https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Jewish_Year_Book/MzBMW-FJZM8C?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=%22Lodge+G.O.I.%22&pg=PA71&printsec=frontcover Good luck in your search,

Looking for advice for conservation of letters
#holocaust
lreizerheftmann@...
My family has recently unboxed 75 pages of letters written by an uncle and his fiance who were unable to emigrate from Holland during WWII. The uncle didn’t survive the war. The letters were written to relatives in the US and tell the story of two people’s desperate attempt to live normal lives while trying to escape their dire situation and not worry family in the US. The pages have all been scanned and are now in archival bags. We would like to donate them to an historical society or Holocaust Museum where they can be conserved and shared. We’ve considered Joods Monument, USC Shoah Foundation, and US Holocaust Memorial Museum but I am wondering if there is a better place to start inquires. Or even if they are only of interest to us. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Happy New Year!
As part of my university Hebrew studies I have translated part of the Yizkor book of the town of Sečovce, Slovakia (Hungarian: Gálszécs). The translation can he accessed here: https://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/secovce/Secovce.html I hope this translation adds a resource to those looking to research Jewish history in the area before and during the Holocaust. Please feel free to reach out if you have family connections to the area or have any questions more broadly. Jonah Silverstein jonahs320@... |

Seeking professional to transcribe/translate many pages of German (18c-19c)
#germany
#translation
amgreene@...
A few years ago, I requested scans of just about everything I could find in the Staatsarchiv Nürnberg that related to my family in Hüttenheim-in-Bayern. It came to about 1,000 pages, some of which are effectively blank or are cover sheets with very little writing on them.
I've worked on them over the intervening time, and it's time to admit that while in theory I can eventually make it through any of them, in practice it will take me far too long to get through all of them.
(1) Does anyone have recommendations for where to find a professional to transcribe these?
(2) How much should I expect to pay and/or what is the process for arriving at an estimate based on the actual documents in hand?
(3) If I decide that I can't afford to do all of them, can I also reasonably ask the transcriber to select which pages look like they'll be most valuable to translate?
(4) Would adding in translation significantly increase the cost or should I have them do that too while they're at it?
Thank you for your thoughts,

Given name of Rosenberg woman from Crailsheim
#germany
Professor Ryesky
I am attempting to decipher the given name of a woman from Crailsheim (never mind that my own illegible penmanship is a family trait I have traced back at least 4 generations, and that I am married to a physician whose penmanship is almost as undecipherable as my own).
As with almost all Jewish German women during the era, her middle name was Sara.
The 1939 German Consulate card (attached) from Jerusalem shows that her birth surname and marriage surname were each Rosenfeld; as with almost all Jewish German women during the era, her middle name was Sara; she was born 3 November 1900, and married in 1922 (month & date not clear) with one daughter; her father's name was Immanuel and her mother was Helene Sara (b. 5 July 1868 in Crailsheim).
This Consulate Card information is consistent with the Baden-Württemberg Landesarchiv link http://www.landesarchiv-bw.de/plink/?f=1-442326-98 , which shows the same undecipherable given name, and two older siblings, Max and Agnes.Any leads would be greatly appreciated.-- KHR=========Ken Ryesky, Petach Tikva, Israel profryesky@... |

Re: Sevastopol Records 1890's
#records
Patricia Papernow asked about finding more information about her PAPERNOW family members born in Sevastopol, Ukraine in the 1890s. Alan Shuchat responded that while the Mormons' Family History Library had filmed some Jewish records from Crimea, they did not have records for Sevastopol. After looking at published books on the metrical books in the Ukrainian archives, it does not appear that any such records for the Jewish community of Sevastopol have survived to the present day.
Not everyone is aware that since 2009, the Ukrainian archives has been publishing a series of books providing official lists of what metrical books (vital records, or birth, marriage, divorce and death records) are in each branch of the archives. They have been published as PDF copies of printed books, and are freely available over the internet. They are, of course, in Ukrainian, but with translation guides available in many places, that is a small obstacle to overcome. They are very easy to use. These are the best sources - most complete and up to date - to check on what Jewish vital records are available in Ukrainian archives. The problem is that they are very hard to find when searching the main website of the State Archival Service of Ukraine. On the modern site, I can find links to only two of the ten volumes published so far. These ten volumes are actually comprised of fifteen books, since several of the volumes were published in multiple parts. The two web pages below contain links to the volumes published so far: List buried deep on old Ukrainian Archives website: https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/ Facebook posting listing the links: https://pt-br.facebook.com/groups/dostup.do.arhiviv/permalink/1588809417977720/ Because these listings don't state the branches of the archives covered in each volume, I have provided each link below, with a translation of what is covered in each volume. The title of the entire set is, in Ukrainian: ЗВЕДЕНИЙ КАТАЛОГ МЕТРИЧНИХ КНИГ, ЩО ЗБЕРІГАЮТЬСЯ В ДЕРЖАВНИХ АРХІВАХ УКРАЇНИ. This translates as: CONSOLIDATED CATALOG OF METRIC BOOKS STORED IN THE STATE ARCHIVES OF UKRAINE. Each volume then has a subtitle giving the branch archives that are covered. The table of contents in each volume lists the books by religion, so one can go directly to the pages for Jewish metric books. Volume 1 - State Archives of Volyn, Dnipropetrovsk and Zakarpatia oblasts (2009) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv1.pdf Volume 2 - State Archives of Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Rivne, and Sumy oblasts (2012) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv2.pdf Volume 3 - State Archives of Ternopil, Cherkasy, Chernivtsi regions, and cities of Kyiv and Sevastopol (2010) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv3.pdf Volume 4 - Donetsk, Ivano-Frankivsk, Luhansk, Odesa and Poltava oblasts (2012) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv4.pdf Volume 5, book 1 - Kharkiv oblast, Russian Orthodox Church only, some counties (2012) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv5-b1.pdf Volume 5, book 2 - Kharkiv oblast, Russian Orthodox (remaining counties), Roman Catholic, and Jewish (2012) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv5-b2.pdf Volume 6 - Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Zaporizhia and Kherson oblasts (2012) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv6.pdf Volume 7 - Vinnytsia and Kirovohrad oblasts https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv7.pdf Volume 8, book 1 - Khmelnytskyi oblast, Russian Orthodox, Podolia gubernia (2013) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv8-b1.pdf Volume 8, book 2 - Khmelnytskyi oblast, Russian Orthodox, Volyn and Kiev gubernias, Roman-Catholic, Jewish, and Old Believers (2013) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv8-b2.pdf Volume 9, book 1 - Zhytomyr oblast, Russian Orthodox, Volyn gubernia, some counties (2018) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv9-b1.pdf Volume 9, book 2 - Zhytomyr oblast, Russian Orthodox, Volyn and Kiev gubernias, Roman-Catholic, Lutheran and Jewish (2018) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv9-b2.pdf Volume 10, book 1 - Chernihiv oblast, regiments (1722–1781), governorships (1782–1796), New Serbia (1763) (2019) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv10-b1.pdf Volume 10, book 2 - Chernihiv oblast, Little Russia (1797–1801), Kyiv (1793–1922), Poltava (1802–1922), Chernihiv (1802–1922) gubernia, Russian-Orthodox only (2021) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv10-b2.pdf Volume 10, book 3 - Chernihiv oblast, all religions (2021) https://undiasd.archives.gov.ua/doc/metric-books/mbv10-b3.pdf It would probably be helpful if there were prominent links to these downloadable books on the website of the Ukrainian Research Division, but I could not find any such links.
