Not sure how to open family tree?
My family is from Slutsk and Kletsk --- came to USA around 1900.
The family name is Kronick.

Do a search on the website of the Australian National Archives, you should be able to find Military and Immigration records, and if you are lucky
you will be able to download them to your computer.

There is a listing of surnames attached to the Fastov/Bela Tservka revision list at:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%D0%93%D0%90%D0%9A%D0%9E_12_3_%D0%A4%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C_1875.pdf

This is posted by Boris Finkelstein but it is in Cyrillic.  It is not a true index since it unfortunately does not include record numbers to identify which record is of interest but it will tell you if surnames of interest are included and it does narrow it down to specific sections for that town.  You can get these names transliterated using the Steve Morse website at
https://stevemorse.org/russian/r2ebatch.html


I do not see such a listing posted for the Bratislav 1875 listing.

Hope this helps

Goldie Bass married Samuel Kivovitz.  The had three children--Tema (might have been known as Rose in USA), Irving and Faigie.  Tema, my grandmother, and her husband Hyman Kumok immigrated in 1899 and changed their name to Cohen.  Irving immigrated around 1902 and changed his name to Cannon; he was married to Lena and was an architect and, I think, a professor at Antioch.  All I know about Faigie is that she immigrated to the USA, married and lived in the state of Washington.  Am very eager to learn more about my grandmother's family.

Possibly related to the LOEB family of Reading, PA

Has anybody come across the surname RUSZDIZAN? I discovered an ancestor with that name - Hykee RUSZDIZAN, specifically. Born ca. 1800. Wife Tannie (sic). Daughter Ethel/Esther COHEN b. about 1825 in Russia-Poland. Ethel's surname is also listed as "Jurdica" on the death certificate of her daughter - Rosie Fanny GOLDBERG, nee JOSEPH. This may not have been Ethel's surname but rather, possibly, her birthplace, i.e. Juryzdyka, Podlaskie, Poland.  Ethel married Isaac JOSEPH in Russia-Poland, immigrated to England then to the United States. She died in 1895 in New York City and is buried in Bayside Cemetery in the Congregation Kol Israel Anshe Polen 2 (an indication of her origin?). Thank you for your insight. I've hit a wall with this family.

I am working on a letter having a number of phrases in Hebrew and Yiddish.  The list is long but I would still appreciate getting it translated.  Thanks for your help and patience.

My Schklar family (Sklar now) was from Krupki in Belarus.   My great-grandfather was Leibusch (Louis in the US) and his brother was Mendel (stayed and died in Belarus in the Holocaust).  Their parents were Meyer and Sarah.  

Any possible connection?

Hello,

Looking for information about my paternal grandparents and great grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins Note: I have  come across different spellings for Jablonski

gf - Mortchaj (Mordechai) Jablonski - son of ? Dan and Cywia died before 1888 as noted in translation of son's marriage registration 
married ?1846 to Leja (leia) Grossman daughter of Leybka Grosman and Basia Mendelsohn  b. ?1828 died before 1888, lived in Szczuczyn.

Children
=Jankiel (Yankel) Jablonsky -- Elchanan David -- 1863-1913)   Emigrated to NYC 1911 as Davidd Levin/e -- killed in shootout between a policeman and gang members (caught in crossfire 
  married 12 Dec 1888 to Estera Goldberg daughter of Szlema (Solomon) Goldberg and Branna  Trcianska daughter of Aron  in Grajewo  Grajewo 

Have found a reference to a Chaja Jablonski - sister of Yankel and a sister of Ester;s named Zlate but  no supporting evidence
Ester came to NY in 1917 with 4 of her 5 children. (Sarah, Saul (my father) Willie and Dinah)   She died in*1932.  I have visited her grave and have pictures of it but in visit to cemetery last year, I was told they didn't have a record for her.  I visited the NYC Municipal archives but couldn't find a death certificate either either 
Both Ester and Yankel//David going to a relative Isak Levin in NYC -- unclear if its brother, brother in law or what.
No record for Ester after going to Isaac's at 52 Suffolk St (had moved from Broome St where David went to and lived according to newspaper accounts, although I know she lived in the lower East Side.

- Isaac lived with his wife Rebecca and children Joseph   Max  and Emmaniel .  Emaniel/Emanual was born in the US.  Have been unable to find documents for their emigration to NY but do know Isaac came seperately and Rebecca came with children several years later.  - Is it possible that Zlate's name was Americanized eto Rebecca?

Both are Yiddisch. 

I am researching Syklawer from Poland, Cuba and the United States.  Does this interest you?

Theodore Hull of the US National Archives explained the difficult process how punched cards became the data base at https://www.archives.gov/publications/prologue/2006/spring/aad-ww2.html.

There could also have been an error on input as it seems numeric codes were used.  If the table of occupation codes were available (anyone?) then it might be possible to deduce plausible errors.

SHADUR, SADUR, SHADER, SADER, CHADOUR, SADOUR, SHADOUR,  SZADUR from Salakas, Lithuania
MINDEL, MINDELL from Utena and Vyzuonos, Lithuania
FELLER from Pabrade, Lithuania

I think a lot of them came from JRI Poland or Litvak SIG, but not all of them. The former editor Marlene Silverman will have access to privately commissioned data from local archives in the area (bought via members funds - I contributed to some of these funds myself). Bearing in mind the number of people asking for info on Suwalki Lomza families on this website, and the fact members of the Suwalki Lomza SIG did help pay for the special data, I do think it would be of benefit if this was made available on Jewish Gen.
