Formatting Yizkor Book Translations
#yizkorbooks
Lance Ackerfeld <lance@...>
Dear Ron,
I hope I can be of assistance in regards the questions you raised about the submission of Yizkor Book translations. Line spacing. Not all the html programs that we work with recognize differences in line spacing. My suggestion is that if you would like a particular line spacing, please send a note when you send the material to Joyce and we will direct the person who prepares the html, in accordance. Page numbering. I assume you are talking about the original page numbers from the text. The best way to ensure that the page numbers are included, isto put them in as part of the text in their appropriate locations. I suggest using something like [Page 1]. The Word-type page numbers will not be recognized by the html programs. Hope this helps. If you have further questions in regards the format of the submitted material, please let us know. All the best, Lance. QA, Yizkor Book Project. Subject: Formatting Yizkor Book Translationsabout

Re: Berdichev book
#belarus
Gene Starn <genes17@...>
Hi, Steve ....
I received the manuscript and have made a couple of copies and turned them out to first see if your names (and mine) are included. I've asked the interpreters to make some notes as to what is mentioned about the names. If worthwhile, I'll see how much they want to translate the entire manuscript and I'll index it in case there are other Berdichevers who can use it. I'll keep you informed. A long shot, but perchance do you happen to know Sid Davis? Sid was once V.P. of NBC News, Washington, and then program director of the Voice of America. He's now retired, but still lives in Bethesda. He and I go back a few years, both having worked together in TV news. The manuscript came in an AIPAC envelope, so I'm assuming you're attached to that organization. They're doing great work because of the criticism they receive >from the press. Gene

Israel resource mandate death certificates
#ukraine
Dorothy Kohanski <dkohanski@...>
Steve Rivkin asked about Mandate period documents in Israel. The best
source I know for finding anyone >from the days of the Ottoman Empire, through the Mandate period and into the current State of Israel is Batya Unterschatz. She is (was?) the Search Bureau for the Jewish Agency. She can ferrett out anything! Her e-mail, I believe is <Batya1@netvision.net.il> If that fails to get her, take a look at the JewishGen archives for her. Good luck. Dorothy Kohanski Laguna Woods, CA

Hi Adam:
Your recent posting interested me mostly because of your reference to Roszev being part of the city of Kiyev, and not Kiyev gubernia. Since I have been trying to find the place that my mother's family came from, which she referred to as Rozhever Kolonya near Kiyev. I have found a Rozhev 38.3 miles w of Kiyev. Where did you find the Roszev you mention? Beatrice Markel Redondo Beach, California

Given name of Label/Labe
#ukraine
Mitzi Smetters <msmetters@...>
Two of my gggrandfathers had the given name of Label or Labe (Label
MICHELSON b. 1820 in Prussia and Labe BOBROV/BABROV of the same generation). I have not seen this given name of Label or Labe anywhere else. Is any one familiar with this as a given name? Could it be a title rather than a name. These men where merchants, and as far as we know, not rabbis. Mitzi Smetters <msmetters@ncweb.com>
