Dear group,
I would like to invite you to read the beginning of the Ekaterinoslav
Yizkor Book, in an English translation. "Book of Yekaterinoslav -
Dnepropetrvsk (The Jewish community >from the beginnings till today)"
For a variety of reasons, I've decided to use a part of my own family
website to share this. This is nothing against the wonderful JGen
Yizkor Book Project, but this worked better for the people who have
done the translating so far. I hope that by the time this is done,
we can add it to the Yizkor Book Project, with permission of all
those who help translate.

So far, the Table of Contents, the Index, and the first 25 or so
pages have been translated.

I have scans of all the photos in the book, and will add those as
their corresponding pages are done.

If you can translate a bit of the original Hebrew, or know someone
who can, I'd be glad to send you a page, two or three.

The address of the book begins at
<http://www.mymishpocha.net/locales/dnep_yizkor_toc.htm>

I will be at the conference, and hope to see those of you who attend!

Shalom,
Hilary Henkin

P.S. feel free to peruse the rest of my burgeonng website - maybe
you'll recognize someone!

I am trying to find information and pictures of parachots, the steamboats,
that were common on the Dnepr around 1900. I'd be happy for any kind of
information on this mean of transportation.
