Lithuania SIG #Lithuania RE: Expulsion and went to Rostov-on-Don
#lithuania
Roman Vilner <rvilner@...>
it appears that there is some confusion here.. original discussion was
referring to expulsion in 1915, which was during WWI (one), while Linda Morzillo seems to be talking about the evacuation, not expulsion that took place during WWII (two), when many Jews were in fact evacuated to central asia. Roman Vilner Brooklyn, NY Vilner, Lieberman, Pinchuk - Mogilev/Gorky, Belarus Shmulenson- Vinnitsa, Ukraine I'd like to clarify what Meri-Jane Rochelson wrote about her father's family: There was a major expulsion of Jews >from Lithuania in June 1915. My father's family, in Kovno, ended up in Rostov, Russia and stayed there until 1921. (If they had not returned to Kovno, the Holocaust would not have found them.) During research pertaining to my maternal grandfather who was born in 1882 in Rostov, (known as Rostov-on-Don), I learned that many of the Jewish population left Rostov before or during the time that the Germans arrived. |

Lithuania SIG #Lithuania Help understanding the 1878 revision list

<<Michael Goldstein asks - The former registration of family members I
located on the 1878 revision list was 14/14. I came across other families on different pages whose former registration numbers were also 14/14. Is there a connection between these people? Does this mean that these people (or some of them) were part of the same household in the previous revision and are related?>> Several explanations are possible. Both families could have been living together at the time of a previous census and were related. Or, they could have been sharing the same house or apartment but were not related. Or, some of the individuals could have been living with a family previously but were not related - they were servants, or boarders. Additional research of other records may prove which scenario is correct. Howard Margol Email: homargol@... |

In the catalogue of the National Archives of S.
Africa I have come across an entry, dated 1877, which contains some Afrikaans, which does not make 100% sense to me - sadly, I do not read nor speak the language. The Description of the record reads: " SELIGMANN, JACOB. INSOLVENTE BOEDEL" And the Remarks section contains: " BEVAT GEEN STERFKENNIS NIE. " Without actually looking up the document, is it possible to divine what it may be about? What is the meaning and the legal(?) significance of the words "Bevat geen sterfkennis nie" ? My interest in this is that "SELIGMANN, Jacob" may have been related to me! Adam Yamey, London UK <adamandlopa@...> *** Insolvent estate - contains no death notice. - Moderator |

For those members who received the September Newsletter please note that
the following was omitted >from the Conference report on the Southern African Session - on Wednesday July 7. A short presentation by Dave Bloom, formerly of Zimbabwe, now living in Israel, was given. Dave is in the process of building up a site on 100 years of Zimbabwean Jewry, to record the history and details of this unique period for the benefit of current and future generations. A short video clip showing the political/sociological situation in Zimbabwe through the eyes of young children, led to a question session mainly from Israeli attendees, who were very interested to see how the Jewish Community in Zimbabwe is living to-day.
