He came to USA sponsored by Muszkal family in Chicago. He settled in Cleveland Ohio with other Muszkal family. He had the picture of his "brother" Milach-Elimelech or Tzvi Hirsch Muszkal He did not look like any of his brothers or sisters. I am thinking there is another story and that it may be a cousin When doing research on Shoah database, I found the picture of Jakob Dov and Devorah Jolan Muszkal. Milach looks very much like Devora Jolan. I am hoping to gain more information regarding this family who lived in Romania at that time. Thank you. Lisa Muskal lisa@regencydevelopers.net

Jojne presumably not the father - any other theories?
#general
rcbernstein
I'm looking for some input regarding a conundrum I've encountered.
As part of my research into Chasya Sura MORGENSZTERN (b1864 in Biala Podlaska) and her two daughters Sophia (b1887) and Rebecca (b1890), and son Mordechai (b+/-1894) who moved to London, I found a marriage record in 1882 >from Biala which details her marriage as follows: Groom: Jojne LICHTMAN (b1861), son of Leibka and Menicha Tema both deceased Bride: Chasya Sura (b1865), daughter of Leibki and Tzivia both alive I can find no record of any children born to this couple, nor of Jojne's death, nor of any other marriage of Chasya Sura. I have mapped out a lot more of the families but it doesn't seem relevant here. Surprisingly, in 1890 I've found the birth records for two sisters born in Biala and both registered on the same day (records 56 and 57), Tzivia Ruchla born 1887 and Ginda Rivka born 1890. The father appearing at the registration is Itsik Jojnasz ROTBLAT (b1861) who declares that the girls were born to Chana Sura MORGENSZTERN (b1864). It does NOT say "born to his lawful wife". The birth registered immediately before Tzivia (number 55) and the one immediately after Ginda (number 58) both DO state "born to his wife". I'm assuming that Jojne LICHTMAN did not become Itsik Jojnasz ROTBLAT by changing his name, and that Chasya Sura and Itsik were not registered as married. Given the above details does this seem a sensible conclusion or can anyone suggest any other possible situations? I'm happy to entertain any other theories! TIA, Ruvane Bernstein (Beitar, Israel)

Hello all. There are two last names I am interested in:
1. HERTZ: I am wondering if anybody has any connection or ancestral information on the paternal lineage of former Chief Rabbi of the British Empire, Joseph Herman HERTZ or advice on how to perhaps extend my research. His father Simon HERTZ is the brother to Sarah HERTZ (married WEIS) my 2XGG. 2. JAFFE: Trying to learn if my JAFFE family is connected to the Rabbi Mordecai JAFFE lineage that is documented. Seeking advice as to best methods for learning possible connections. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday to those celebrating!
