JONISKELIS Research
#lithuania
Gilda and Bob Kurtzman <gildak@...>
To all the researchers of Joniskelis, Lithuania,
I am beginning a new project for Joniskelis and am asking all researchers who have roots or family >from the town to contact me it. After very successfully connecting the Jewish families of Pusalotas, a neighboring town, I realized that many of the people came >from Jonikelis or went to Joniskelis, my family being among them. The Pusalotas file contains, as of today, about 25 families. To my gratification and surprise, I found that only five were not connected to another family in the town. I assume the same will hold true for Joniskelis. The first version of the Pusalotas file was given to the archives and museums in Lithuania and to the researchers who are finding it fascinating. They are also finding new family connections. I am looking forward to hearing >from you and seeing what results this new project will bring. Gilda Kurtzman Petach Tikva, Israel gildak@zahav.net.il

My mother's family stemmed >from Jadow, a town about 50 kilometers
northeast of Warsaw. I own a copy of the Jadow yizkor book, but I am eager to search the civil records. To my dismay, I have learned that no Jewish records for Jadow exist. Can anyone tell me why? Phillip Applebaum Oak Park, Michigan, USA

Signing with OOO
#poland
Gary Mokotoff (Optonline) <garymokotoff@...>
It is more likely a person was illiterate when he signed with OOO, not that
they could not sign in Polish (but could write Yiddish). First, for most Polish Jewish vital records >from Congress Poland, the Jews signed the records in Yiddish not Polish, so OOO most likely meant they could not sign in Yiddish either. There is only one case of a Mokotow signing OOO. It was the case of a man whose father died when he was nine and he was the only male child. It is likely he had the responsibility at an early age to provide for his family and never had a proper Jewish education. Gary Mokotoff
