INTRO - Seeking LEWIN from Halle u/Saale
#germany
Ann Lewin <lewinr@...>
I did post a message before and got very positive results. Unfortunately
fairly new to this type of research and to this computer.(an Apple) I am researching the LEWIN family >from Halle u/Saale. Have information on the family back to the birth of Jakob LEWIN in 1823 and my last message resulted in information on a brother of Jakob named Julius and his decendants. I do not know therir parents names or if there were other brothers and sisters. Do know that Jakob had a son named Paul and at least 3 male children whose names I do not know. I have traced Pauls descendants to today and received via e mail ther family tree (until 1924) of Julius Lewin. Would like to find out names of other brothers and sisters of both JaKob (Yakob) and Paul and trace the family trees. I feel certain that there must be some living relatives somewhere in the world that we do not know about. Would ppreciate any help anyone can give. Thank you, Ann Lewin Rancho Mirage, CA Lewinr@earthlink.net

Where is Temun, Russia?
#belarus
Hilary Henkin <hilary@...>
Dear all,
I recently read that Irving Berlin was born in Temun, Russia, which was also the city where his parents married. Since he was the youngest of six, I might guess all the family was born there. Mr. Berlin wrote on his WWI draft registration card that he was born in Mogilev, so I'd figure Temun is near there (another example of a small shtetl being identified by its nearest large city). I didn't find Temun in JGen's Shtetl-Seeker, in the Belarus-SIG website shtetl listing, or on the MultiMap website. Do any of you know where it is? Thanks! Hilary Researching: Mogilev - BERLIN; BELIISKI; HENKIN - GENKIN; MESCENOKOV; POZ - POZE Ekaterinoslav - KATZ; LAPIDUS; LAVROTIN - LAVRUTIN; PESACHINSKY; SHIMERNITSKY; STEINHART Roumania: DONNENFIELD; RINCOVER - HARINCOVER; DOLLINGER Harbin, China: SREBERK - SCHRIEBER; LITEBSK; SCHON --

Jaunjelgava
#latvia
Levy <levy@...>
I am hoping to find information about my grandmother's family who
lived in Friedrichsstadt (now Jaunjelgava) in the Courland area until about 100 years ago. Her family name was GUTMANN (GOODMAN), and other family names include WIENER and WESTERMANN. While my immediate forbears went to England, some members of those families stayed behind, and presumably vanished in the holocaust. We are visiting Latvia next May and would very much like to contact the Jewish archives in Riga if there is such a thing. Can anyone help me with this? A contact who speaks English would be wonderful. Hopefully that person could connect me with an English speaker in Jaunjelgava so that I could visit the old cemetery if it is still accessible. Susan Levy Perth, Australia ---------------- MODERATOR NOTE: 1. Go to the website for LATVIA SIG http://www.jewishgen.org/latvia/ Click on the menu-item: Latvian State Archives and there you can find lots of information. 2. If you haven't seen all the messages in the mailing list about the Riga Archives and how much help they have provided, I suggest that you search the archives -- go to http://www.jewishgen.org/wconnect/wc.isa?jg~jgsys~sigspop and make a search (remember to choose LATVIA SIG). ----------------

Denmark ===> Scandinavia !
#scandinavia
JNB <jnblank@...>
Mazal tov (lycka till !) on the launching of the new ScandinaviaSIG. I
think it is a great development ( and if my previous suggestions in this direction contributed somehow to this development, I'm very glad). I'll do my best to spread the word around among my Finnish Jewish friends to get them to take an active part in the mailing list. One small problem I noticed: the link to the Helsinki Cemetery data (by Eric Adler) does not seem to work. The data seems still to be available at http://www.adlertree.net/helsinki.htm , so apparently it's just a question of a "missing link". The Turku cemetery data link is OK. BTW, I'm in contact with Rabbi Edelman >from Helsinki, and I'm trying to convince him (and the community) to carry out a similar project on the old (19th century) Jewish cemetery in Helsinki. This would involve an urgent rescue and restoration operation, as well as recording, since the cemetery is in a pretty bad shape, and many of the tombstones have sunken into the soft ground or are completely overgrown with vegetation or otherwise unreadable. Again, congratulations on the "renewed" SIG ! Joel Blankett Jerusalem, Israel

Re: Stumped
#general
ariewish@...
Hi List,
I need advice or suggestion(s). I have been looking for my grandfathers arrival in the USA (twice) as well as my Uncle (arrived with my grandfather when he returned the second time). Looked for my grandfather on EI (Morse) to no avail. Looked for my Uncle with the same results. All I know that my grandfather arrived some time before WWI started (1913 or 1914). He was admitted to the States and lived in Cleveland, Ohio. He was a paddler (had a horse and a wagon and worked the Norther Pa area). He left for Poland some time in 1923. He couldn't get readjusted to life in Poland so he decided to go back to the States. My grandmother didn't wish to go, so they decided that my Uncle will go with him (1926 - 1930). When they arrived in the States (port or ship unknown) both of them were refused entry. My grandfather wrote to somebody (I guess INS) and he was allowed to enter, but not my Uncle, he traveled to Cuba and entered the States some time after 1936 at which time my grandfather was already dead. My questions are: Where or to whom would one write to appeal a decision on admission? Where would one find documents on people not admitted to enter? One more item. I can't find them on any SS documents (Numbers or death certificates). Any advise or suggestions are welcome. Sincerely Arie L. Wishnia. Still searching the following: WISHNIA, OKSENHORN, TWARDEDREWO, ZAJDMAN >from Miedzyrzec Podlaski and the Podlaski region.

Hello, I am looking for information on my Greatgrandparents:
a)s Rabbi Chaim ALTMAN (>from Hotin-Bessarabia)-married to Bassi Altman/I think he died between 1905 and 1909 b) Rabbi Yesrael BULACH/BULAKH (>from Lipcon or maybe Hotin-Bessarabia), married to Frima. I know that he died when he was in his late twenties -probably before the turning of last century. I heard that the Bulach might have come >from a village Bulakhi. I also heard that there were connections in Kamenetz Podolsk c) Israjel Myers Wolf married to Ester >from Brzezin-Poland and their children (believe that they might have died in the Shoah d) Jacob Tuchinsky ?Tushinsky married to Dobe Kalsky- >from Kiev and their children I also heard that there was a 'fetter' Moishe who was married without children, and who was the owner of the transport system of Odessa and who suddenly disappeared. No one heard about him again. I believe this would have been around 1910. I could not find any other information about them. Does anybody know were I could find out any other information about them. Thanks Marcia Woolf Bulach Researching: Altman (Hotin-Bessarabia; some went to America and others to Brazil); Bulach or Bulakh (Lipcon, Hotin-Bessarabia and later to Brazil); Tushinsky/Tuchinsky (Kiev, Boslev-Boguslav)--Ukraine; Wales, England and Brazil; Wolf or Woolf (Brzezin-Poland), Wales, England and Brazil
