Cypress Hills Cemetary is on the Brooklyn/Queens border, both part of NYC.

However, tis area had been referred to as Long Island since, geographically, Brooklyn and Queens are on Long Island. Today, Nassau and Suffolk counties are what people are referring to when they say "Long Island".

What or where is Thed.
#general
bevphil <bevphil@...>
On a Hungarian birth certificate, under the father's name,
Nyiregyhaza is written. Under the mother's name, the word Thed is written. Under the name of the witness, (surname same as mother's maiden name) I also find the word Thed. Is Thed a location or does it have another significance. I have tried to look up Thed, but have had no success at all. Felix DeFalco Atlanta

VM100 - Russian Army Discharge Papers
#general
Mark_J._Schwartz@...
I have posted to viewmate what have been described to me as the discharge
papers of my greatgrandfather, Lazer (Max) Fruman. I know that the xerox has portions of tape obscuring portions of the document, but any information or details you could provide would be appreciated. In keeping with an excellent "tradition" I plan on donating to Jewishgen for this excellent addition of Viewmate. Thanks.

Dear Genners,
I read the recent post by someone who received a Numident instead of a copy of the original social security application, and that the SSA is going to be implementing this permanently. Does anyone have information about when this will take place? This is upsetting news! Denise Azbill Las Vegas, NV

Re: OUDTSHOORN - MORE INFORMATION
#southafrica
Robyn Lichter <robyn_lichter@...>
Dear Eli,
I have been following your messages with interest but couln't really add much about your queries. My mother's family, the Morris family, were in Oudtshoorn. Mark Morris was my great grandfather. He was involved in the Queen Street Shule and also the establishment of the Jewish Day School which was the first Jewish Day School in SA, I think, and moreover a government school! He owned a few hotels in the area, including the Criterion, and was considered one of the Ostrich Barons. This hotel still exists and is now called "The Baron"! Apparently there are copies of the Oudtshoorn Koerant in the Cape Town Library which describe life etc. I, unfortunately don't have access to this but would dearly love to read them. If you're interested in more info I'll happily forward it. Look forward to seeing what else comes up Regards Robyn
