Dear Galitsyaner Researchers,

Does anyone remember the violinist Jakob (Yankev)
Zeltser, or any of the other musicians that played
weddings in Stanislav and vicinity before the war?

Does anyone remember the special dances that were
done at Jewish weddings in Stanislav, such as: Bojker
and Erdewei (also popular in nearby Carpathian
shtetlakh like Yasen, Mitvina, Delyatin and
Pereginsky); Kaperush (a dance where everyone has to
imitate exactly what the leader does.) Or any of the
other dances, such as Mitsve-Tants, Broyges-Tants,
slow volokh, sirba, kolomeyka "Kabinya Marisya",
Yidishe Troika, or Hutsulka?

Or wedding songs like "Shrayt shoyn 'Mazel Tov'", "Ot
Azoy Makht Men Khasene Kinder" and "Chipkelakh mit
Fasolyes"?

Genners,

This is especially posted for any WYGODNY-of-Chmielnik researchers. I know
I have spoken to some before. In Sara E. Hagstrom's 2001 book, "Sara's
Children: The Destruction of Chmielnik", Rachel Wygodny Herszlikowicz of
Melbourne, Australia was interviewed. I just wanted to let you know if you
do not have her in your family tree.

And in general, anyone researching the town of Chmielnik, Poland would
benefit >from reading this book. It is full of information.

I have no affiliations with the author nor the publishing company. I write
only to inform. My apologies if I violated any JewishGen listserv violations.

Regards,

Sometimes you have to be creative. I mumbled Hamferton a few times, like a
careless clerk, and came up with Southanpton (Wngland) and Haverford (SW
Wales). The former is a huge port and many passenger ships out of France,
Germany and Holland stopped there to pick up British passengers. The latter
is a small port, part of the Milfordhaven complex; ships may have stoppedm
there, too--it was probably a cheaper port for harbor fees.

Try Friedland, Friesland, Freiland for the ship's name

My grandfather was Morris Polevoy >from Talnoye in the Ukraine.

We think he came over around 1911 and lived in New York City, and
Ramsey, New Jersey.

The village where he grew up is the setting for the book by Bettyanne
Gray known as Manya's Story. It is out of print now, but there are
people in the family that may be able to help you.

I knew my father had an elder sister by the name of Selma. Can anyone
inform What name is Polish, what is Yiddish, and if Neche could be Selma?

I don't know about Neche, but Selma is of Celtic origin and I
think it would be unlikely to be found in 19th century Poland.
Presumably she adopted this name when she came to America. AFAIK
there is no relation between this and Neche, but there doesn't have
to be - she might just have chosen the name because she liked it.

I have an anthology with some of my ancestors listed in it. At the rear of
the book it gives a review of early Federal Records including naturalization
information. For my great grandfather,Yale SIMON,it lists everything except
the name of the ship. I now know that he left Bremen on 3-10-1901.
When I found my Great grandmothers brother, I thought I hit paydirt. It
says that he,Jacob ROSENTHAL,left Hamferton on 6-15-1903 On The S.S. Fierland.
I can not find any record of Hamferton so I do not know what country it is in
and I can not find any listing of this ship.
Can anyone offer any suggestions.
