Dear SIGgers,
Does anyone know, with documentary evidence if possible, if or how
German Jews living outside Germany in 1935-36 were notified that they
were no longer German citizens? A secondary question: What type of
diplomatic contact were German Jews living and working outside Germany
between 1930-35 required to make with the German government ?

I will appreciate all responses.

Hi All

For those interested in the history of Jewish Soldiers who served in
the German Army during WW1 I highly recommend the book "Loyal Sons:
Jews in the German Army in the Great War" by Peter C. Appelbaum, it is
both extensively researched and easily readable.

Did your family live in New York? There are many interesting research
possibilities in the Big Apple! JewishGen's Intermediate Course,
Breaking Brick Walls in the United States, will focus on New York
Resources. This course will be especially useful to those who visit
NY; we'll have suggestions on where to research, where to wander and
how to get there.

If, despite basic online research (census >from familysearch &
ancestry, vital records >from italiangen) you have not yet found the
Hebrew names, birth year or town for your U.S. immigrant ancestors
consider this course as it focuses on the more esoteric documents our
ancestors generated, including naturalization, military and
governmental records, death records (probate, obituaries, cemeteries),
and local archival research.

We are proud to feature a personal mentoring program; students use our
online FORUM, post an ancestral branch, set goals for research, and
work one on one with the instructor. Eight text lessons can be
downloaded to read at your own pace and an optional field trip to a
New York archive will be scheduled. This course is open for
enrollment. PLEASE read the course descriptions and requirements
(8-10 hours per week) on
www.jewishgen.org/education/description.asp?course=40088
and email any questions.

I look forward to interfacing with every student.

from what you have posted, your father definitely left before 1929, and definitely

lived abroad for more than 10 years. it's possible that the issue is dual citizenship,
or the lack of it. american naturalization forms included a renunciation of any other allegiances (i.e. citizenship), and the cutoff date of 1929 might be the earliest date that hungary allowed dual citizenship.

i don't think that the collective wisdom of h-sig, or parsing the (english) wording
on the consulate's web site, will be able to circumvent that - not even in the
google age. your best bet is to contact the embassy or consulate, and speak to the
person in charge of handling citizenship requests. policies are implemented by bureaucrats, usually with discretionary powers.

ps. as a historical, and genealogical, footnote, i have in my possession a very rare document: a hungarian "emigration passport" >from the communist era. i don't know how many others, if any, were ever issued, but it was so rare that the border guards had never seen one before!

On behalf of the board of JRI-Poland, I am pleased to announce
that our colleague Robinn Magid, long-time board member and
Lublin Archive Coordinator, was among a select group who
received a civic medal last week honoring her contribution
to the City of Lublin.

On the occasion of the ancient city's 700th birthday, during a
reunion of descendants of Lublin Jewish families, the Mayor of
Lublin commended Robinn for inspiring the citizens and helping
shape the local identity of the city. For more than 10 years,
Robinn has worked closely with Brama Grodzka / TeatrNN, a
cultural center in Lublin, partnering with them and the Lublin
Archives, to recover and preserve the memory of the Jewish
citizens in her grandmother's beloved hometown.

As far as I know the parent under whose name you are claiming citizenship just
needs to have been born in Hungary and not their subsequent citizenship.

Two years ago my nephew gained his Hungarian passport, even though his father
had come to Australia in 1957 and had automatically become an Australian citizen
in 1962 when our parents took out Australia citizenship.

Subject: [h-sig] Finding the missing link - >from 1848 census records to 188=
5 birth records



Fellow SIGers,


For sometime now I'm trying to trace another generation back >from my

g-grandfather to no avail.

Recently H-SIG transcribers (thanks a lot!!!) have uploaded a new

batch of the 1848 census records and for a moment I though I had a

breakthrough. However, it looks like I still have a gap I can't find

the way to bridge over - and this is where I call for your help.


My g-grandfather Marton SALAMON was born in Bikszad, Satmar megye in

1885 to Levi SALAMON (probably a misspell for Leib/Laibu) and Pepi nee

KLEIN.

Searching the 1848 census, I've found a possible match for Marton's

grandfather - Marton SALAMON, born in Liszka, Galicia in 1796 married

circa 1840 to Borcza JAKOB, born in Krass=C3=B3 (Szamoskrass=C3=B3) in 1816=
.


Now in order to find Marton Jr.'s father I tried searching all

available databases for Levi/Leib SALAMON birth, marriage or death

records to find a clue regarding his kids or parents but found nothing

relevant.


Question is where and how can I find the missing link between Marton

SALAMON (Bikszad, 1885) and Marton SALAMON (Liszka, 1796).


Any clue, tip or advice will be much appreciated.


Thanks,
