Hello everyone
I'm new study on Romania.
I was looking for some information found on the SIG Romania and
database of JG Romania - it seems that there is very little
information on the Bucharest. It is precisely the most important city
in Romania. I'm right?

Are there records-Vital of Bucharest?
Are there censuses of Bucharest?

Thank you

Dear Friends,

I am interested in the early burials for the Jewish communities in several
German towns:

Laufenselden & Bad Schwalbach (formerly Langenschwalbach) mid 1800s-1900

Wehen & Zimmersrode 1800s

1. Do any of these cemeteries still exist?
2. Have transcriptions of burials been done? Where do I find them?
3. If no transcriptions, are there societies or individuals who are
in charge of these cemeteries and could offer assistance?
Thank you for your help

Have you tried looking at the 1890 NY Police Census? NY City was
convinced it was under countered in the 1890 Census so they
dispatched the police to do a recount. It is less detailed and
required you to have the street address there were living at but it
will show names and reported ages. Or if they are in Brooklyn the
family should be in the 1892 NY State census but that did not
include Manhattan or the Bronx (if I recall correctly).

For the Police Census you still have to go to the microfilms
because Ancestry only has a tiny fraction online and never went
back to add more.

You have to research the address they were living at and then
reverse the address into the Census to see who was living there ...
hopefully including your family members. You can get addresses

from things like birth certificates and marriage licenses and maybe

a City Directory or I even had some luck using voter roles.

According to the 1892, 1900, 1910 federal
census, and 1905 NY census, and his draft card he was born in 1888.
However his birth certificate states January 1892 and is stamped
February 1892.

I am trying to find some connections with my great grand mother
Marie Louisse Friedentahl
I think she was >from Grodno, married my grandfather Jack Astardjian when
in Egypt and had one daughter (my mother) Angel Astardjian.

Mum died about 40 odd years ago and I found out my grandmother's name
on her death certificate.
Any information would be much appreciated.

Jacqueline Elliott (nee Manoukian).
