Hi
I am looking for information on this person
Chaskiel Orzech - b. 1930 in Keilce, Poland
He was a survivor of Thereseinstadt.
I believe he moved to England after the war.
I have no further information.

Except in some way the name Rubin may be
associated. Does anyone have an ideas of how
I could find this person or people?


Thanks

A town near Czestochowa has me stumped. Perhaps it is Kelci or something
close? Can someone help me with this town name? It is underlined in the
graphic below.

The document is a death certificate, in Cyrillic, >from Czestochowa, 1890.

Hallo Litvaksiggers,

I am looking for a HURWITZ family, Levi'im, and possibly >from Poneviscz
(spelling?). There is one factor which sets this family aside >from other
HURWITZ families, and that is that they have a family custom of not eating
Turkey. Apparently a distant ancestor once saw a Turkey attacking a "rat"
and felt it to be a non-kosher (Treif) Animal.

I am in touch with an EPPEL family >from Dublin, Ireland, who have the same
custom for the same reasons, and there is, I believe, an EPPEL/HURWITZ
connection but so far, I have not found it. My main objective is to find
the shtetle where the HURWITZ family came from. The information I was given
is that the HURWITZ family came >from Kovno, possibly Poneviscz.

The family names are Moshe Shimon (Simon) HURWITZ married to Tilly Laura
LOON. Father of Moshe was JOSEPH HURWITZ married to Rose. children of Moshe
Shimon HURWITZ were, Solomon, Harry Edward, Ada and Freda Molly HURWITZ.

I have been given the address of the Horowitz foundation

Many thanks

Hi Everyone,

Happy Succot!

I was wondering if people could help identify some villages when may have
been in Transcarpathian Ukraine or Slovakia. I found these towns listed
with the following exact spellings listed on ITS cards available at Yad
Vashem. The Sapsovic family was found at these places.

Nizne Slovinky
Olso Kesloholve
Sorretudvari

Thanks for the help.

Hi,
I was wondering if people had any thoughts for new avenues of research for
my Oberlander family. The family lived in Chinadievo, near Mukachevo as
early as the 1850's. However, I recently checked an 1843 Tax Census which
indicated that they were not living there at the time. In fact, there were
no Oberlanders in Bereg county. So, I would like to figure out where they
came from. I know that historically, there was a migration >from Galicia,
but is there any way to prove it?

I would appreciate any thoughts or ideas.

My great grandmother in Budapest was Katalin Krausz, born Katalin Back. Her
father was known as Wolf, Farkas and Wilhem Back, according to the various
records that I have relating to him.

On Katalin's gravestone I expected to see her father's hebrew name as Zev,
but that is not what is inscribed. The name that is there makes no sense
to me. I am hoping that it makes sense to someone who reads this SIG.

The name is spelled "hay yud yud resh hay" or "hay yud yud resh chet". The
last letter is especially difficult to read on my photograph.

Any guesses?

In a list of people who registered for aliyah >from Budapest in 1944, we have the
couples Sandor (b. 1905) and Jolan (1903) HERLINGER and Adolf and Ilona
(1890) HOLLANDER. There is no particular connection between these two
couples (so far as I know at this point). Sandor's mother is a Pickholz and Ilona's
maiden name is Pickholz, hence my interest.

The files were closed without followup in 1944.

I haven't a clue what happened to either family and would be pleased to hear if
anyone recognizes them.
