Carol W. Skydell <cskydell@...>
Dear JewishGenners,
Whether your ancestors came >from Poland or you are just interested in the history of the Polish intellectuals of the 20th century, the new book "Caviar and Ashes" by Dr. Marci Shore is sure to be a fascinating read. Recently published by Yale University Press, the book can now be purchased at a discounted price through the JewishGenMall. Dr. Shore's "Caviar and Ashes" eloquently presents the history of a generation of Polish intelligentsia born at the turn of the last century. The book follows the lives of young innovators who chose the Marxist philosophy even before Poland fell under the control of the Soviet Union. Their selected path took them >from literary cafes not only to corridors of power but also to prison cells. The work, based on the newly obtainable archives >from Poland, the ex-USSR and Israel, recounts over fifty years of Eastern-European Jewish literati history in the twentieth century. Please visit the JewishGenMall at < www.jewishgenmall.org > and to read more about the book or to place your order, click on the moving banner.. We welcome your visit and appreciate whatever purchases are made in the JewishGenMall since this is one way of helping support JewishGen programs and projects. Carol Carol W.

Ukrainian has these characters, but also an "i" formed like ours, and another "i" with two dots. Belarussian doesn't have the i with two dots, but adds Y (U) with an accent mark, which neither Russian nor Ukrainian have. Odessa may still be more Russian than Ukrainian despite its location. Dave

Leslie Weinberg <lbw50@...>
I hired a researcher in Romania, and one of the records he found was
the burial of what would appear to be my great grandmother. He told me she is buried in Rulikovski Cemetery. I have never heard that name mentioned in any posts. Can anyone give me any information on this? Thank you, Leslie Weinberg MODERATOR NOTE: Please sign all messages with your location or they will not be posted!

brother of a deceased immigrant to Vienna >from Galicia, Israel Pickholtz wrote: "Logan, isn't it easier to look for the putative brother in Galicia and see if his parents are listed, A birth record, for instance?" Yes, it is easier, but Galician sources I am aware of that might list the brother's parents either do not or are not known to exist. This is why I am turning to Vienna for answers.
