Need contact in Zimbabwe
#general
Ronisl@...
After a year of inquiries, I finally received exact instructions about
obtaining a death certificate >from Zimbabwe. The cost is approximately $5 U.S. which is $20 Zimbabwe currency. The registry there insists upon a bank draft. The bank draft itself is $25 US!! If anyone is on the list from Zimbabwe or has close relatives there, I would like to send my letter requesting the certificate along with US currency to that person and ask that he/she enclose the Zimbabwe currency and mail the letter. If your relative there also has e-mail, could you let me know, and I'll post to them directly. Thank you.

The only Lemberg I am aware of is synonymous with Lvov or Lviv. It used to be
in Galitzia in the old Austrian-Ungarian Empire, and is now situtation in the Ukraine.

Several Dreyfus family trees were published here and there. Dr Henri ClaudeEve, By any chance, do you know if there is a connection between the French Dreyfus line and the American one? I speak of Jack Jonas Dreyfus (1885-1972) whose son was president of the large mutual fund corporation. Jack, Sr. was married to my great aunt, Virginia Anderson (1896-1982). John D.
