KLEIN and FRANK Families of Minsk Gubernia
#general
SOL2516171@...
I am looking for information about the family of my wife's great great
grandparents Nathan KLEIN and Frieda FRANK of Minsk Gubernia (Belarus). They had four children, all of whom settled in Brooklyn -- Basha, Balya (Bella) Lapidus (1859-1941), Rhoda (Dora) Blitstein (1865- ca 1945), and Louis FRANK (he took his mother's maiden name as his surname) (1866-1959). I don't know whether the KLEIN and FRANK families lived in Minsk itself or some other town in the province. David Solomon Chevy Chase, Maryland SOL2516171@aol.com

Re: 1911 census, Montreal

Alan Greenberg
Joy, there is a finding aid and map for the major Montreal census
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
districts on the JGS-Montreal web site - http://jgs-montreal.org/montreal-map.html . This is a modern-day map, but most streets are still the same. Clarke has not moved and is right in the middle of St. Laurent / St. Lawrence district (District 182). Unfortunately, there are no maps of the sub-districts and (so far) no street index, so you need to go through the pages one-by-one. If you have access to the Lovell's 1910 city directory for Montreal, it often gives a "ward" name which will help narrow the search a bit. The street names and addresses are in the census form immediately to the right of the person's name. Alan Greenberg JGS-Montreal Montreal, Canada

Re: My brick wall - the KRONEN family
#general
Yehudh bn Shlmo
Dear Geners,
I saw a later posting on this that said in the 1930 Census the name was KORMAN. Just in case anyone else is checking, I am looking at the Census now and it is KROMAN in the 1930 Census. And Fredrick is spelled Frederick in the copy I am looking at. Happy Hunting, Yehudah ben Shlomo Charles Kronen was born in Rypin, Poland, immigrated to the U.S. at about age 19 in 1921, settled on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, and married Yetta Fein in 1923. He drove a laundry truck, and they had three children -- Morris in 1923, Fredrick in 1926, and Fannie some time after the 1930 census. (Charles, Yetta, Morris, and Fredrick are listed on the 1930 census). In 1938, at about age 35, Charles died >from tuberculosis, and thereafter Yetta did not keep in touch with his side of the family.

More warts - what was not told
#general
Barbara Zimmer <bravo.zulu@...>
In my family, there were several topics that were not discussed - at
least not with "the children". So I did no know that my uncle committed suicide by taking cyanide. (He was a jeweler and thus had access to cyanide which is used to purify gold.) I was able to obtain the death certificate at the state archives. Nor did I know (until I recently asked my elderly aunt) that my other uncle divorced his wife (my father's sister) and remarried. I obtained more details on that one >from his will. And in my husband's family there was a great-cousin who "worked in a saloon" in the western part of the US. A mutual cousin of my husband was reluctant to share any information about her. The important part is that she died young and may have suffered >from a chronic genetic disease which we know has affected one branch of the family for over 4 generations. As genealogists we often uncover details which might otherwise remain hidden. Some of those details may prove to be highly significant. Barbara Zimmer Virginia

Mlawa yizkor books
#poland
P Concus <pconcus@...>
Does anyone know the answer to this?
In the JewishGen.org Yizkor book listing for Mlawa there are the entries: (i) "Jewish Mlawa; its history, development, destruction", D. Shtokfish, ed. (two volumes), Tel Aviv, 1984 (ii) "Pinkas Mlave", New York, 1950 (iii) "Pinkas hakehillot: encyclopedia of Jewish Communities: Poland vol. 4: Warsaw and its region", Jerusalem, 1989. In the Yad Vashem Library collection (as listed on JewishGen.org), there are listed three titles for Mlawa: T763, which corresponds to listing (i) above T72, which corresponds to listing (ii) above. However, the Yad Vashem third listing T327 (Yediom, Assoc., 1966-1972) looks as if it is a different book than (iii) above. Is it the case that there are four Mlawa books, two of which are in both listings, the other two being in only one of the listings? Thank you. Paul Concus Berkeley, CA
