Re: Lithuanian Vital Records Database is now LIVE
#general
Ben Forman <ben.forman@...>
I pretty sure I've just found the birth record of my GGGM, SHAINA
VEINER she was born in Panevezys / Kupiskis in 1878. But I would like to check a couple of things 1. It gives an exact date in 1878 for her date of birth which would mean that her daughter, my great granmother was born when she was 17. My GGM had an older sister Nechama and it would seem unlikely that they would both be born by the time their mother was 17.Do you think this is possible? 2.It lists the name of the father/grandfather as Vulf Mordkhel, Falk, I have not come across the name Falk before, is it a diminutive of something. It lists the mother/grandfather as Esther Malka is this Ester whose mother was Malka, and no name for the father or maiden name . Thanks for the help, I'll keep my fingers crossed and do some more checking tonight (GMT) Ben Ben Forman manchester UK ben.forman@btconnect.com searching: FURMAN: Kaluszyn; CAHN: Koeln; BERNSTEIN: Ylakai, STILLMAN: Pilica/Czestechowa; SAWADY: Zavadi/Posen; GEVER: Daugavpils

Dear H-Sig: Can someone explain to me how to access the Jewish Vital Records

Fw: Paul Linhart's query
#hungary
Andrew Sanders <andrew-s@...>
I know nothing about Davidovka and Russian institution. But the Hungarian
Army had a field hospital at Kiev. After the Voronezh debacle, many forced labour conscripts, my father included, marched back westward to Kiev, some managed to get into that hospital for warmth, food and perhaps care. My father did, and contacted typhoid fever there. He died within days at that hospital. Could Paul Linhart's grandfather have found his way to the same place? Andrew Sanders Toronto / Haifa

Neptune Steet not Well Street
#unitedkingdom
Chaim freedman
Indeed Well Street is now Ensign Street. My father, the late John Freedman
(1910-1999) lived there at #27, during the 1st World War until he left with his parents for Australia in 1922. #22 is now occupied by the school. In the census of 1901 my greatgrandparents Michael and Dora Blumenthal lived at #45 Well Street. They later moved to St.Mark Street. I visited the area with my father in 1970 and many of the old buildings were still standing. Last October when I visited again all the buildings were new. My father told me that he attended a primary school in the centre of Wellclose square. He was born at #212 St.Georges Road now called the Highway. His parents, Myer and Annie Freedman were married in the Little Alie Street Shule in 1909, which was in ruins in 1970 and by 1974 when I visited it, it had been converted into the Half Moon Theatre. That too has disappeared in a new building. In fact during my visit with my wife last October, none of the sites where my family lived are still standing. I was lucky to see them with my father in 1970. Will sentimental memories, Chaim Freedman Petah Tikvah, Israel chaimjan@zahav.net.il http://au.geocities.com/chaimjan2003/Chaim_Freedman.html

Davidovka, Ukraine 1943: Soviet Field Hospital and/or Nazi Forced-Labor Camp?
#hungary
Ujfeherto@...
I am trying to trace the fate of my grandfather Antal LINHARDT who
disappeared >from the #401 Penal Labor-Service Brigade on January 12, 1943 at the Russian Front after the Voronezh Offensive. According to an eyewitness, my grandfather was taken to a field hospital at the Front (although it is unclear whether this was a Nazi or Soviet hospital) According to the book Fekete konyu by Eugene Levai, Hungarians in exile in Moscow (Mihaly Farkas, Erno Gero, Bela Illes, and Zoltan Vas) arranged for POWs taken by the Soviets to be cared for at the Davidovka Hospital in the Ukraine. There are several places in the Ukraine called Davidovka, but I believe this to be at long. 51' 10", lat. 39' 26" I noticed that Hungarian Olympic fencing athlete, Attila Petschauer, whose death was depicted in the movie Sunshine, died in Nazi labor camp at Davidovka, Ukraine. I am wondering if this is the same Davidovka and if the Soviet's took over the Nazi labor camp and converted it to a field hospital and/or POW camp. Does anyone have any information or suggestions on the Davidovka Hospital or Labor Camp? Paul Linhardt Pacific Grove, CA www.PaulLinhardt.com
