Are the Prerov/Prerau familiant registers available online? I don't
see them with the others on Badatelna.

The Sefer Yizkor le-Kehilot Shedlets (Memorial Book of the Community of Siedlce) is
the most extensive compilation of the Siedlce community of Poland before WWII.
Published in Yiddish and Hebrew, in Buenos Aires, 1956, the book reconstructs the
social, political, and religious fabric in this city of 15,000 Jews. The chapters
were written by the citizens and survivors of the city. They paint a thorough
picture of life there. Translating this book will open up this vital resource
beyond the Yiddish speaking community, and it will serve as a vital tool for
academics as well as genealogists.

This translation project is facilitated by JewishGen.org. They have overseen the
translation of many such books and avail the translations on their website. The
cost of translating this book has been set at $5000.00. We have raised $2000.00 so
far. Can you contribute $18.00 or $36.00 to insure that this work gets completed?
Here is the link for the book;

Would anyone kindly be able to provide some advice?

My Grandfather was born in Otwock, Poland in 1914 and my Grandparents were found on
the 1948 Warsaw Jews WWII survivors list. The United States Holocaust Museum found
a document that provided their parents names. I would like to find out more about
my Jewish ancestors, great-grandparents.

This week I was invited to a convention in Warsaw, Poland, August 5-13, 2019. It
will be my first trip to Europe and Poland. If I wanted to research additional
information about my ancestors, what would be the best way to approach this? I
have not found anything additional with the www.ancestry.com, familysearch.com,
jewishgen databases etc. The surnames are Rosenberg, Wasserstrum & Domb. Can
you recommend any services while I would be in Poland? Or advice as to
how to pursue additional research?

Thank you in advance for any help or direction you may be able to provide.

Respectfully,

Dear Genners,
As a project coordinator for several Yiskor books, please take time to read about
your shtetl and those in the surrounding region. YOu might be very surprised to
find information regarding family and relations which you can't obtain just by
looking for archival dates! Remember, broaden your search, one member could be in
1 shtetl, some in another. UNderstanding the history of the First World War, which
created a lot of movement, might also shed light to your research. the shtetl you
were so focused on, suddenly, shifts to another shtetl.
I hope this is helpful and I am always looking for more translators or donations to
whichever YB that interests you

My great greatgrandmother , Gittle ABRAMOWITZ , immigrated >from Eastern Europe via
Liverpool in the second half of the 19th cent. She was a widow with 4 young
children. In some source, which I don't remember today I read that she remarried a
LAZAROFF in New Haven. She seems also to have been a silversmith or some similar
profession.

On this forum I learned several years ago that there was (is) a LAZAROFF family in
New Haven who were(are) Jewellers.

Are thereany New Haven LAZAROFFs on this forum who know there family history who
can confirm the above story regarding my ancestress's marriage into their family?
