JOWBR Breaks Through 3 Million Record Mark! (JOWBR Year-End Update) #poland Nolan Altman #26964 JewishGen is proud to announce its 2016 year end update to the JOWBR (JewishGen's Online Worldwide Burial Registry) database. The JOWBR database can be accessed at www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/ If you're a new JOWBR user, we recommend that you visit our screencast page at www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/Screencasts/ and take a look at the first two explanatory screencasts. This update, adds approximately 172,000 new records and 21,000 new photos. The database is adding and/or updating 590 cemeteries. This update brings JOWBR's holdings to 3.05 million records >from more than 6,800 cemeteries / cemetery sections representing 125 countries! Once again, donors for this update include a mix of individuals, Jewish genealogical societies, historical societies and museums. We appreciate all our donor's submissions and the transliteration work done by a faithful group of JewishGen volunteers. The 3 most significant additions to JOWBR add burial records >from 2 London cemeteries and 1 Chicago suburban cemetery. JGSGB (jgsgb.org.uk/) and JCR-UK (www.jewishgen.org/JCR-uk/) have been working with the Federation of Synagogues (www.federationofsynagogues.com/) to make available the details of burials at the Federation's Edmonton and Rainham cemeteries. The JGS of Illinois (www.jgsi.org) submitted data >from the Westlawn Cemetery in Norridge, Illinois. In addition to those additions, other significant additions to the database include collections >from Germany, Romania (Arad), Czech Republic (Praha-Zizkov and Straznice), France, Moldova, Turkey (Istanbul), Croatia (Zagreb), Colombia (Medellin), Ukraine (Dnipropetrovsk) and the United States. Please see www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/tree/CemList.htm for a complete listing of all cemeteries in JOWBR. I want to particularly thank Eric Feinstein who has been helping me to find and gain permission to add many non-US records >from Germany, France and under-represented countries. Eric's group of volunteers includes Alla Aizenberg, Sandra Bennett, Lineke Bos, Andre Convers, Pia Crook, Sharon Duckman, George Goldschmied, Henry Graupner, Ann Meddin Hellman, Maurice Kessler, Harriet Mayer, Irene Newhouse, Hans Nord, Irina Roskin, Marylin Shalks, Isaac Shapiro, Suzanne Tarica, Michael Waas, and Valerie White. In addition, a big thank you to our volunteer transliterators, led by Gilberto Jugend, without whom we would not be able to add the information >from some very difficult to read photos. We appreciate all the work our donors have done and encourage you to make additional submissions. Whether you work on a cemetery / cemetery section individually or consider a group project for your local Society, temple or other group, it's your submissions that help grow the JOWBR database and make it possible for researchers and family members to find answers they otherwise might not. Please also consider other organizations you may be affiliated with that may already have done cemetery indexing that would consider having their records included in the JOWBR database.

Memorial Plaques Database Grows to More Than 136,000 Records (Year-End Update) #poland Nolan Altman #26963 JewishGen is proud to announce its year-end 2016 Update for the Memorial Plaques Database (MPD). The MPD database can be accessed at http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Memorial/ The MPD database includes the data >from plaques and Yizkor lists >from synagogue and other organizations. Many of these sources include patronymic information. This update added approximately 30,000 records and 7,900 photos from Croatia, Israel, Italy, the United States and Wales. These records come from 24 different synagogues and other institutions. We believe that the MPD is a good example of how users of JewishGen's databases can "give back". If you are a member of a synagogue or other organization with memorial plaques or Yizkor lists, please consider helping us to grow this database. You can find more information on submitting data at http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Memorial/Submit.htm If you have additional questions, please contact me directly. For a complete listing of the institutions currently in the database, please see http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Memorial/tree/MemList.htm Nolan Altman NAltman@...

Obtaining Internal Passport information and papers #lithuania Joyaa Antares #272263 Hi All, I have just discovered some Internal Passport records in the Lithuania Internal Passports Database, 1919-1940 pertaining to my family. I'd like to obtain as much info (copies of papers etc.) as possible. However, even after reading http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Lithuania/InternalPassports.htm#contents I remain unclear what is actually available, where I should obtain it from, and at what cost. Please can you help me? 1. In the Internal Passports Database, several say "List only" . Does this mean there will be no papers and no additional information, available from anywhere? "Internal Passport Application - List Only (LCVA/1096/1/134) Palanga/Kretinga, 1921" 2. One is a "Foreign Passport Application" (LCVA/412/16S/1915) Taurage, 1929, and several are "Internal Passport Applications" (LCVA/408/3/75), and state, for example, "Pages #64 - 67. She got visa for Germany" Skaudvile, 1921. Are these papers being translated by LitvakSIG? Do I pay them $100? Or do I approach the archives and what cost might I anticipate?

Lithuania SIG #Lithuania Obtaining Internal Passport information and papers #lithuania Joyaa Antares #592540 Hi All, I have just discovered some Internal Passport records in the Lithuania Internal Passports Database, 1919-1940 pertaining to my family. I'd like to obtain as much info (copies of papers etc.) as possible. However, even after reading http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Lithuania/InternalPassports.htm#contents I remain unclear what is actually available, where I should obtain it from, and at what cost. Please can you help me? 1. In the Internal Passports Database, several say "List only" . Does this mean there will be no papers and no additional information, available from anywhere? "Internal Passport Application - List Only (LCVA/1096/1/134) Palanga/Kretinga, 1921" 2. One is a "Foreign Passport Application" (LCVA/412/16S/1915) Taurage, 1929, and several are "Internal Passport Applications" (LCVA/408/3/75), and state, for example, "Pages #64 - 67. She got visa for Germany" Skaudvile, 1921. Are these papers being translated by LitvakSIG? Do I pay them $100? Or do I approach the archives and what cost might I anticipate?

JOWBR Breaks Through 3 Million Record Mark! (JOWBR Year-End Update) #ukraine Nolan Altman #310608 JewishGen is proud to announce its 2016 year end update to the JOWBR (JewishGen's Online Worldwide Burial Registry) database. The JOWBR database can be accessed at www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/ If you're a new JOWBR user, we recommend that you visit our screencast page at www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/Screencasts/ and take a look at the first two explanatory screencasts. This update, adds approximately 172,000 new records and 21,000 new photos. The database is adding and/or updating 590 cemeteries. This update brings JOWBR's holdings to 3.05 million records >from more than 6,800 cemeteries / cemetery sections representing 125 countries! Once again, donors for this update include a mix of individuals, Jewish genealogical societies, historical societies and museums. We appreciate all our donor's submissions and the transliteration work done by a faithful group of JewishGen volunteers. The 3 most significant additions to JOWBR add burial records >from 2 London cemeteries and 1 Chicago suburban cemetery. JGSGB (jgsgb.org.uk/) and JCR-UK (www.jewishgen.org/JCR-uk/) have been working with the Federation of Synagogues (www.federationofsynagogues.com/) to make available the details of burials at the Federation's Edmonton and Rainham cemeteries. The JGS of Illinois (www.jgsi.org) submitted data >from the Westlawn Cemetery in Norridge, Illinois. In addition to those additions, other significant additions to the database include collections >from Germany, Romania (Arad), Czech Republic (Praha-Zizkov and Straznice), France, Moldova, Turkey (Istanbul), Croatia (Zagreb), Colombia (Medellin), Ukraine (Dnipropetrovsk) and the United States. Please see www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/tree/CemList.htm for a complete listing of all cemeteries in JOWBR. I want to particularly thank Eric Feinstein who has been helping me to find and gain permission to add many non-US records >from Germany, France and under-represented countries. Eric's group of volunteers includes Alla Aizenberg, Sandra Bennett, Lineke Bos, Andre Convers, Pia Crook, Sharon Duckman, George Goldschmied, Henry Graupner, Ann Meddin Hellman, Maurice Kessler, Harriet Mayer, Irene Newhouse, Hans Nord, Irina Roskin, Marylin Shalks, Isaac Shapiro, Suzanne Tarica, Michael Waas, and Valerie White. In addition, a big thank you to our volunteer transliterators, led by Gilberto Jugend, without whom we would not be able to add the information >from some very difficult to read photos. We appreciate all the work our donors have done and encourage you to make additional submissions. Whether you work on a cemetery / cemetery section individually or consider a group project for your local Society, temple or other group, it's your submissions that help grow the JOWBR database and make it possible for researchers and family members to find answers they otherwise might not. Please also consider other organizations you may be affiliated with that may already have done cemetery indexing that would consider having their records included in the JOWBR database.
