Sherri's original question was if the books like Russians to America
might be an alternate source. I responded to her privately saying
they were an index of the lists and not a full transcription.

The cards Joel points out (and those of us that started doing this
research in the days of microfilm before the Internet remember) are a
good source as they are another index option. Those cards are how I
first discovered my great grandmother's arrival in America.

What I also suggested to Sherri was first to go page by page online
to make sure it was not out of order or some such error. We all know
the various errors in transcription that could make the indexing a
problem plus so many other issues that could make the jump >from the
detained list into the main list a real problem. I am sure I am not
alone in having encountered this problem many times but the good news
is almost always the page is there.

What I am not sure is if pages like Ancestry and FamilySearch did
their own conversion/digitization >from the original microfilm or if
they all used a common source file. That might mean checking another
online source or going to NARA's own site might be worth while. What
I suggested to be certain the page was lost was to go backwards one
step to the actual microfilm which NARA still holds (plus some
libraries such as the NYPL) to make sure the problem also was not in
the conversion >from the microfilm to the Internet. As Joel points out
NARA scrapped the actually lists after microfilming them so the
microfilms are as close as we can get to the original lists today.

The Holland America lists of course are a good alternative as they
show who got on the ship in Holland. In addition to being at the LDS
those lists are in a number of major repositories like the NY Public
and the Boston libraries. Since Sherri knows the ship and the date it
should be easy but remember the ship left Holland about 10 days before
it got to America.

Hope that adds a few more ideas for anyone else encountering a similar
challenge.

Genners,

I'm looking for someone to perform a random act of genealogical
kindness by researching records pertaining to possible relatives in
New Haven, Connecticut. I'm specifically looking for information
regarding individuals with the surname MANDELSTEIN/MENDELSTEIN or
other variants thereof. They may have arrived in the U.S. as early
as the early 1880s. I have records of them in New Haven in the 1890s.

Please let me know privately if you're able to help me out. If you
need Philadelphia research, I'd be glad to help out.

Thank you.

Library and Archives Canada (LAC) and FamilySearch working
collaboratively published the index to the 1926 Canadian census of
the Prairie Provinces: Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. While
Canada usually conducts a census every ten years since four years
after the Confederation in 1871, due to the rapidly expanding
population of the Prairie provinces a more frequent census was
undertaken in 1906 -- in between the Canada-wide censuses -- and every
ten years thereafter.

The 1926 Census of the Prairie Provinces were transferred >from Statistics
Canada to Library and Archives Canada on June 1, 2018. The census was on
46 microfilm reels (48,529 images) LAC digitized the images into PDF and
JPG formats FamilySearch has indexed the images so that they will be
searchable on the LAC website. While the indexes are up on FamilySearch
at https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/3005862, they are not
expected to be available on the LAC website
http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/census/pages/census.aspx
until the beginning of March. This site contains all the Canadian
censuses available on LAC.

To access the 1926 Prairie Census on FamilySearch you will need to have
a free account. You can access and register for the free account by
clicking on "free account" in the upper right corner of the aforementioned
FamilySearch url. There are some indexes linked to images, but not all.
If it is there it is on the right side.

Dear GerSig members,
I just joined the group. A Computer Scientist by profession, a
beginner in genealogy research.

I am looking for information about the WOLFSTHAL family. The three
branches of the family that I know of are:

(1) The Musicians branch:
Including Chune WOLFSTHAL , Josef WOLFSTHAL , Bronislaw
WOLFSTHAL , and others. They lived in Ternopol, and other places.

(2) The Lwow branch:
Maxymilyan WOLFSTHAL's, whose compelling holocaust memoirs are in
USHMM, is a member of this branch.

(3) The Husiatyn branch:
Chaim Baruch WOLFSTHAL is one of the early ancestors of this branch.
Parts of this branch, including my ancestors, immigrated to
Israel before WW2 and thus survived WW2 horrors.

I have mapped in a fair level of detail the internal family
relationship within each of these branches, separately >from each
other.
I have yet to discover how they connect together. Family folklore
indicates they are all connected. I am looking for help in uncovering
this connection.

A related question is the switching of some of them between the
surnames WOLFSTHAL and WOLFTHAL. As an example, I have an
Naturalization Application where one of the WOLFSTHAL musicians
identifies himself to the interviewing officer as WOLFTHAL known as
WOLFSTHAL. I wonder what is the meaning and significance of that.

Thank you --- Prof. Yaron WOLFSTHAL, Ben-Gurion University, Israel

Dear GerSIGgers,

A few years ago I published an inquiry on this wonderful forum. I was
looking for people with roots or relations to Wiesbaden-Breckenheim and
Delkenheim because we started to edit the first volume of the Family
Book of Jewish families in Wiesbaden. This first volume has been published.
Thanks to all who sent information.

Now we are at the beginning of the second volume:
Family Book of Jewish Families in Wiesbaden-Biebrich including Mosbach.
So we are now looking for people with roots or relations to one of the
mentioned places.

If you have any information about Jewish families formerly living in
Biebrich or Mosbach you are very welcome to get in contact we me.

Thank you very much in advance and best regards,

Dear friends,

Israel Yakob SIROTIN resided in Petrikov, Belarus, and had at least 3 sons.
As far as known, both he and his wife died (or killed) before 1920.
The 3 known sons immigrated to Israel as orphans in the 1920s.
I would be grateful for any info on additional children >from this family.

These 3 orphans had a cousin, David Aizyk FRIEDMAN, who resided in Minsk in
the mid 1960s, and was trying to contact them.
Any info on the relative David Aizyk FRIEDMAN >from Pyetrikaw and later
Minsk, would be most appreciated.

Thanks as always,

I have several Bialystok records related to Fradl Schneider but
with varying patronymics:

1869 birth of her daughter: Fradel Feigel daughter of Menashe
1872 birth of her daughter: Fradel Leibovna
1878 birth of her son: Fradla Majerowicz
1881 her death: Fradel Feigel daughter of Menashe

I'm reasonably certain these are all for the same woman so I'm
wondering whether there's a connection between the three different
patronymics? or are they likely translation issues?

I suspect Fradel's maiden name was KAPLAN but that's only suspicion.
