The Theresienstadt Memorial Book has a listing for:
LEWKOWICZ Anna born 17 May 1868
deported >from what was then Breslau, the capital of Silesia.

There are five more entries for LEWKOWITZ which is a kind of Germanized
version of this name. Let me know if you want more details

I would also be very interested in the answer to this question.

I have a couple of general "survey" books on the Rat-Beil Strasse
Friedhof, but no comprehensive listing. Thanks.

Hello GerSig,
I just joined the group. I have been doing genealogy research for
2 months. I consider myself to be a novice in doing German Jewish
Genealogy research. I live in Rehovot, Israel.
My native language is Hebrew and I also know English, a little French and
German. I consider myself expert in using a computer. My experience in
using the Internet is extensive.

I have identified the names and birth of 2 of my grandparents, 4 of my
great grandparents.

My primary research goals now are to find out: The LEWKOWICZ Family.

The family names and towns that I am researching are:

LEWKOWICZ and HOCHBAUM - Beuthen (today Bytom), Oswiecim

MOD NOTE: Welcome to GerSig. Please type family names you are researching
in all capital letters every time they are mentioned. Example:

Greetings!

Does anyone know of a survey of the remaining gravestones in the Frankfurt
Jewish cemeteries? My wife's Great Grandparents were buried there in 1910
and 1911 respectively and their Trauer Album only says: Israelitisches
Friedhof. The officiating Rabbi was Dr. Horwitz. Judging >from other
information I have found on the web, this might be the Jewish cemetery on
Rat-Beil Strasse which is attached to the Haupt Friedhof in north
Frankfurt. With thanks in advance! Please communicate directly to me at:

Brian,
There is a lot of information in Google on "J=FCdische Friedh=F6fe" in
various places. Mostly in German, it's useful to know that language. I
obtained information and photocopies of Jewish tombs in Hohebach. The town
hall of D=F6rzbach-Hohebach was very helpful, they referred me to a Mr.
H=E4fele and gave me his telephone number. I spoke to him and he arranged
for the town admin. to send me pictures of two tombs I was researching. I
noticed that a K. H=E4fele, probably the same person, wrote a book about
Jewish life in Hohebach. Since your research concerns the same book where
the Hohebach cemetery is recorded, I presume that Mr. H=E4fele could
confirm if your STERNs are buried in one of them. BTW, there seems to be
also a cemetery in Oelnhausen, and Berlichingen is now part of Sch=F6ntal.
Mr. H=E4fele's number is : (0)7937.353 or 228. If you want, I could call
him.
You should give me the necessary details for your query. He does not use
an e-mail address, but I have the one for D=F6rzbach, where I believe he
works.
If you don't have the url for these sites on Google, I can give you some.

My maternal grandparents were married in Leszniow in 1910.
Would anyone have any idea why the couple who had been living in Berlin
almost all their lives (since young children) would get married in Leszniow?
Was there a requirement to get married in the country of one's birth ? The
bride was born in Rzeszow and the groom in Brody.

Dear Rav-Siggers,

I continue to research the family of R' Aaron b' Moshe Halevy
HOROWITZ.

I have found a reference to the effect that the *two* title pages of
Avodath Halevy (published posthumously by his sons and grandson in
Lemberg in 1862) contain information about R' Aaron b' Moshe Halevy
HOROWITZ's family tree.

I would very much appreciate if you could contact me if you happen
to have a copy of this book or if you know where I can find one.
Please respond privately.

Thanks for your help.

Susan,

Have you contacted the FHL at the Mormon Church in Los Angeles for the film
#1254873? They may have a copy of it or they can order one for you.
