How would I find out about a business that was in Munkacs most likely in the late
1890? My great grandfather Lipot Kaufman was a shoemaker with a business in Munkacs that I believe made custom made shoes. Is there somewhere I could research this? He may also have been in business with his father in law Manes Reichard. Thanks Carol Karp KAUFMAN.REICHARD,ROTH Munkacs

Jacob Heisler
Hi everyone,
I found a newspaper article for a cousin of mine, Baruch REICH of Skoryki, Galicia, in a Vienna newspaper. I would really appreciate it if someone could translate the article for me. It can be found on ViewMate here: http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM71334 Please keep in mind that while the article is typed and quite clear, it's in the Fraktur script, so it might be tricky to read if you aren't familiar with it. Thank you for your time. From, Jacob Heisler Norwalk, CT P.S. Just in case anyone is curious, I found the article on ANNO - Austrian Newspapers Online. It has a fully searchable database for online newspapers in and out of Vienna, including some specifically Jewish newspapers.The website is German, but it's fairly simple touse and Google Translate can translate it for you. It's linked here: http://anno.onb.ac.at/

Lithuania SIG #Lithuania Litvak observances of weaning?
#lithuania
Adam Feldman <adamleofeldman@...>
Greetings Genealogists,
I'm looking for an authoritative source to support a theory I have about a discrepancy between the birthday on my grandmother's (Dvoyra) birth certificate which we've recently found and the date we've been celebrating as her birthday. The later date is on every other official document she has. My theory is that Dvoyra's mother (Chasse) brought a folk tradition or religious practice of celebrating her daughter's weaning on her second birthday. Further, I'm supposing that Chasse tracked time at that point or for this purpose using the Hebrew calendar, and so the Gregorian calendar date of Dvoyra's second birthday became remembered officially as her birthday. Does this sound plausible? Have any of you found the same? Here's my timeline to explain: 27 March 1921 | Chasse arrives in Philadelphia after journey from Kovne via Rotterdam 29 Jan 1922 | Chasse and Aron marry. He's >from Vilkomir and came 9 years earlier. 15 Jan 1923 | Dvoyra born according to her recently discovered birth certificate. This happens to be 27 Tevet 5683 23 Jan 1923 | Dvoyra's birthday according to her, and according to her marriage certificate, drivers license, and passport. 23 Jan 1925 | 27 Tevet 5685 or 2 years by the Hebrew Calendar after Dvoyra's birth. When I stumbled upon the coincidence of the 27th of Tevet, it surprised me. And it surprised Dvoyra. Her father Aron who came in 1913 >from Vilkomir was tailor and a committed leftist. While a believer in modernity he wasn't an ardent assimilationist. He raised Dvoyra in folkshuln, and was passionate about a proletarian Yiddish culture. It's possible a weaning ceremony would have been seen by him as a cultural treasure of the Jewish people and worthy of throwing a party or reappropriating in some way. We know Chasse lit candles longer than anyone else in my family tree. And her father was a butcher, which I imagine suggested Halakha was more important in her household growing up. Though I believe she went to a Yiddish Gymnasium and was modern in outlook as well. She was well primed to move closer to Aron's ideologies. So given the outlook and our memories of my great grandfather and great grandmother we were all surprised to see evidence of tracking any time other than say a Yortsayt by the Hebrew calendar. Did women of Chasse's generation >from Lithuania place ceremonial importance on weaning? On the second birthday? Has anyone experienced this? Has anyone read about this in a book of Jewish genealogy? A sociological study of Litvaks? Of Jews >from the Pale of Settlement? Of "greenhorns" in America? I'd love a citation so I could track something published down. I've been unsatisfied with what I've found online. Adam Feldman

Lithuania SIG #Lithuania Conscription records in The All Lithuania Revision List Database Part 2
#lithuania
Cathy Miller
Question: Would a person conscripted in 1911 who was not in Lithuania
at the time still be recorded as a conscript in the 1911 Revision List database? Background: I am researching Tzvi Hersh VITEN b 1844 - 1856 ->Harry WITTEN who emigrated >from VABALNINKAS (LITHUANIA) to PHILADELPHIA (USA) in 1903 with his wife and 6 children, one of whom was Chayim Schmiel/Chaim Shmuel VITEN -> Herbert Samuel WITTEN b 15 December 1889 (as per US naturalisation papers). I can find a Girsh Viten in a number of places, though only one entry with a son Chaim Schmuel, and that entry was made in 1911 after this family had left Lithuania, so might be someone else. Since the entry is in relation to a conscription, and no other family members are recorded apart >from Girsh and his son, is it possible that this entry recorded a conscription for a person who had already left the country? According to Chaim Schmuel's stated date of birth he was 11 years old when he left Lithuania and would have been 22 in 1911 The two All Lithuania Revision List Database Part 2 relevant records are Reference number: 39 38/4609 Town/District/Province: Vabalninkas/Panevezys/Kaunas Day/Month/Year: 20 November 1911 Surname: VITEN First name: Chaim Shmuel Father: Girsh Relationship: conscript Sex last/sex this/age: left blank Comments: Place of residence Vablninkas. Lived in Riga. Conscripted in 1911 Reference number: 39 Town/District/Province: Vabalninkas/Panevezys/Kaunas Day/Month/Year: 20 November 1911 Surname: VITEN First name: Girsh Father: left blank Relationship: father Sex last/sex this/age: 60 Comments: Place of residence Vablninkas. Lived in Riga. Conscripted in 1911 Any help or advice on this matter much appreciated With thanks Cathy Miller (researcher #366319)
