Shalom,

There seems to be some unwritten law that despite its shortness,
February always seems to be one of the busiest times in the Yizkor
Book Project and this last one, didn't disappoint.

To begin with, I am more than very pleased to let you know that we
have just completely translated and placed online, another Yizkor
book. This time it is the "Czyzewo Memorial Book" covering the
Czyzew-Osada, Poland community and considering that it entails 1190
columns of text (around 585 pages), this is definitely no mean feat.
Our grateful thanks go out Jennifer Mohr who, >from the outset, has
coordinated the translation of this book with great energy and
dedication. Although the book is now completely translated, Jen is
now arranging for an index to be prepared for the book which is always
an invaluable additional tool that researchers can be good use of.

Continuing on with the good news, I am pleased to let you know that
the 80th book published by the Yizkor Books in Print Project has
recently hit the shelves. The book, "The Jews of Kishinev" covering
the lost Jewish community of Chisinau, Moldova has become a reality
through the enthusiastic coordination of Yefim Kogan and the wonderful
translations of volunteer, Sheli Fain, and of course, the YBIP team
led by Joel Alpert. Our grateful thanks goes out to all those involved
in the translation and publication of this book and for those
interested in learning more about the other 79 books that have been
published, please see the link to the YBIP project at the end of this
report.

Other good news. The New York Public Library has done wonders over
the years to allow us ready online access to an enormous number of
Yizkor books. It has now gone an extra step further and provided the
public with a very useful guide for viewing the online books and also
has provided useful links to other online sites, including our very
own Yizkor Book Project. In my humble opinion, a worthwhile site to
bookmark: https://libguides.nypl.org/yizkorbooks

As Purim is just around the corner, I would like to wish you dear
readers and your families, a very enjoyable time over this upbeat
holiday and wish you a Happy Purim and/or a Purim Sameach.

Happy Purim/Purim Sameach,
Lance Ackerfeld
Yizkor Book Project Manager

Shalom,

There seems to be some unwritten law that despite its shortness,
February always seems to be one of the busiest times in the Yizkor
Book Project and this last one, didn't disappoint.

To begin with, I am more than very pleased to let you know that we
have just completely translated and placed online, another Yizkor
book. This time it is the "Czyzewo Memorial Book" covering the
Czyzew-Osada, Poland community and considering that it entails 1190
columns of text (around 585 pages), this is definitely no mean feat.
Our grateful thanks go out Jennifer Mohr who, >from the outset, has
coordinated the translation of this book with great energy and
dedication. Although the book is now completely translated, Jen is
now arranging for an index to be prepared for the book which is always
an invaluable additional tool that researchers can be good use of.

Continuing on with the good news, I am pleased to let you know that
the 80th book published by the Yizkor Books in Print Project has
recently hit the shelves. The book, "The Jews of Kishinev" covering
the lost Jewish community of Chisinau, Moldova has become a reality
through the enthusiastic coordination of Yefim Kogan and the wonderful
translations of volunteer, Sheli Fain, and of course, the YBIP team
led by Joel Alpert. Our grateful thanks goes out to all those involved
in the translation and publication of this book and for those
interested in learning more about the other 79 books that have been
published, please see the link to the YBIP project at the end of this
report.

Other good news. The New York Public Library has done wonders over
the years to allow us ready online access to an enormous number of
Yizkor books. It has now gone an extra step further and provided the
public with a very useful guide for viewing the online books and also
has provided useful links to other online sites, including our very
own Yizkor Book Project. In my humble opinion, a worthwhile site to
bookmark: https://libguides.nypl.org/yizkorbooks

As Purim is just around the corner, I would like to wish you dear
readers and your families, a very enjoyable time over this upbeat
holiday and wish you a Happy Purim and/or a Purim Sameach.

Happy Purim/Purim Sameach,
Lance Ackerfeld
Yizkor Book Project Manager

Shalom,

There seems to be some unwritten law that despite its shortness,
February always seems to be one of the busiest times in the Yizkor
Book Project and this last one, didn't disappoint.

To begin with, I am more than very pleased to let you know that we
have just completely translated and placed online, another Yizkor
book. This time it is the "Czyzewo Memorial Book" covering the
Czyzew-Osada, Poland community and considering that it entails 1190
columns of text (around 585 pages), this is definitely no mean feat.
Our grateful thanks go out Jennifer Mohr who, >from the outset, has
coordinated the translation of this book with great energy and
dedication. Although the book is now completely translated, Jen is
now arranging for an index to be prepared for the book which is always
an invaluable additional tool that researchers can be good use of.

Continuing on with the good news, I am pleased to let you know that
the 80th book published by the Yizkor Books in Print Project has
recently hit the shelves. The book, "The Jews of Kishinev" covering
the lost Jewish community of Chisinau, Moldova has become a reality
through the enthusiastic coordination of Yefim Kogan and the wonderful
translations of volunteer, Sheli Fain, and of course, the YBIP team
led by Joel Alpert. Our grateful thanks goes out to all those involved
in the translation and publication of this book and for those
interested in learning more about the other 79 books that have been
published, please see the link to the YBIP project at the end of this
report.

Other good news. The New York Public Library has done wonders over
the years to allow us ready online access to an enormous number of
Yizkor books. It has now gone an extra step further and provided the
public with a very useful guide for viewing the online books and also
has provided useful links to other online sites, including our very
own Yizkor Book Project. In my humble opinion, a worthwhile site to
bookmark: https://libguides.nypl.org/yizkorbooks

As Purim is just around the corner, I would like to wish you dear
readers and your families, a very enjoyable time over this upbeat
holiday and wish you a Happy Purim and/or a Purim Sameach.

Shalom --

Sometimes we work hard, overcome obstacles and steadily move forward
toward an important goal but it seems to elude us. Often we just need
one final burst of energy, insight or determination to succeed. That's
why I'm writing today.

Jezierzany is a small shtetl, formerly in Galicia and now part of
Ukraine. It's about 100 miles >from Lviv. It had a vibrant Jewish
population with a rich history whose residents contributed in small
and large ways to the betterment of their community and the world.
For example, Moshe Shulbaum, one of its native sons, became a
distinguished linguist who played a major role in the development of
modern Hebrew as it is spoken in Israel today.

We've almost reached our goal of ensuring that his story and
Jezierzany's stories live on. We've been able to translate most of the
Memorial (Yizkor) Book for Jezierzany & Surroundings into English.
However, we are about $500 short of having enough money to translate
the remaining pages, part of the section concerning the holocaust and
what happened to Jezierzany's Jewish community during its final days.

Please help us complete this important project!

Your donation can be made at
www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen-erosity/v_projectslist.asp?project_cat=23

Scroll down to Jezierzany and enter your donation amount there. JewishGen
has numerous Yizkor Book funds so make sure you fill in the amount for
Jezierzany.

If you prefer, you can send a check to JewishGen, Edmond J. Safra Plaza,
36 Battery Place, New York, NY 10280. Be sure to indicate that this is a
donation for the Jezierzany Memorial book.

In order to ensure that your donation is correctly credited to the
Jezierzany fund, please also let me know the amount of your contribution.
The minimum allowable contribution is $10.

In Every Generation, We Tell the Story
In April we will celebrate Passover. Each year we are instructed to tell
the story of our ancestors’ journey out of Egypt, lest we forget where we
came >from and the lessons learned along the way. Our ancestors >from
Jezierzany and other areas intentionally left their precious stories for
us and our descendants; they deserve to be shared.

If you have any questions, please contact me at Jlistbrod@aol.com. Thank
you very much.

Dear Friends,
Andrew Zalewski, Gesher Galicia board member and author, will be
presenting GALICIAN PORTRAITS: THE STORY OF JEWS, GENTILES, AND
EMPERORS to the Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Miami at the
Greater Miami Jewish Federation (4199 Federal Highway, Miami FL)
Sunday, March 10th at 11 A.M. Early bird visiting and sign in at 10:30
A.M.

"The talk is of interest to audiences interested in Jewish genealogy
and it is illustrated by historical pictures, unique archival
documents, and old maps. Through genealogical findings discover the
largest Jewish community in multiethnic Austri-Hungary. Andrew
Zalewski, the author of two books on Austrian Galicia (1772-1918),
explores the impact of the Habsburg rule on Galician Jews. The laws
about marriages, surnames, schools, and military service brought a
dizzying pace of changes but also controversies. Galicia's Jewish
community--pious traditionalists and impatient reformers, laborers and
professionals, dwellers of shtetls and cities--faced many choices.
Passionate arguments easily erupted about what was to be their
language (German, Hebrew, Yiddish, or Polish), customs, and loyalties.
Local Jewish cultural "rebels"wrote biting satires and poetry. But
even in difficult times, brave voices spoke loudly against prejudice."

Please join us Sunday, March 10th at the Greater Miami Jewish Federation.

Paulette Bronstein
President
Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Miami

Dear Friends,
Andrew Zalewski, Gesher Galicia board member and author, will be
presenting GALICIAN PORTRAITS: THE STORY OF JEWS, GENTILES, AND
EMPERORS to the Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Miami at the
Greater Miami Jewish Federation (4199 Federal Highway, Miami FL)
Sunday, March 10th at 11 A.M. Early bird visiting and sign in at 10:30
A.M.

"The talk is of interest to audiences interested in Jewish genealogy
and it is illustrated by historical pictures, unique archival
documents, and old maps. Through genealogical findings discover the
largest Jewish community in multiethnic Austri-Hungary. Andrew
Zalewski, the author of two books on Austrian Galicia (1772-1918),
explores the impact of the Habsburg rule on Galician Jews. The laws
about marriages, surnames, schools, and military service brought a
dizzying pace of changes but also controversies. Galicia's Jewish
community--pious traditionalists and impatient reformers, laborers and
professionals, dwellers of shtetls and cities--faced many choices.
Passionate arguments easily erupted about what was to be their
language (German, Hebrew, Yiddish, or Polish), customs, and loyalties.
Local Jewish cultural "rebels"wrote biting satires and poetry. But
even in difficult times, brave voices spoke loudly against prejudice."

Please join us Sunday, March 10th at the Greater Miami Jewish Federation.

Paulette Bronstein
President
Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Miami

Shalom,

There seems to be some unwritten law that despite its shortness,
February always seems to be one of the busiest times in the Yizkor
Book Project and this last one, didn't disappoint.

To begin with, I am more than very pleased to let you know that we
have just completely translated and placed online, another Yizkor
book. This time it is the "Czyzewo Memorial Book" covering the
Czyzew-Osada, Poland community and considering that it entails 1190
columns of text (around 585 pages), this is definitely no mean feat.
Our grateful thanks go out Jennifer Mohr who, >from the outset, has
coordinated the translation of this book with great energy and
dedication. Although the book is now completely translated, Jen is
now arranging for an index to be prepared for the book which is always
an invaluable additional tool that researchers can be good use of.

Continuing on with the good news, I am pleased to let you know that
the 80th book published by the Yizkor Books in Print Project has
recently hit the shelves. The book, "The Jews of Kishinev" covering
the lost Jewish community of Chisinau, Moldova has become a reality
through the enthusiastic coordination of Yefim Kogan and the wonderful
translations of volunteer, Sheli Fain, and of course, the YBIP team
led by Joel Alpert. Our grateful thanks goes out to all those involved
in the translation and publication of this book and for those
interested in learning more about the other 79 books that have been
published, please see the link to the YBIP project at the end of this
report.

Other good news. The New York Public Library has done wonders over
the years to allow us ready online access to an enormous number of
Yizkor books. It has now gone an extra step further and provided the
public with a very useful guide for viewing the online books and also
has provided useful links to other online sites, including our very
own Yizkor Book Project. In my humble opinion, a worthwhile site to
bookmark: https://libguides.nypl.org/yizkorbooks

As Purim is just around the corner, I would like to wish you dear
readers and your families, a very enjoyable time over this upbeat
holiday and wish you a Happy Purim and/or a Purim Sameach.
