ViewMate translation request - German (Marriage Document)
#translation
#germany
mshilling04@...
I've posted a vital record in German for which I would like a translation. It is on ViewMate in two files at the following links ...
http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM82335 http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM82336 This is super confusing as it appears to be a second marriage of my ggggrandmother (but for several reasons it does not make sense) - or there was someone in the same area with the same name and same parents names. There is a large amount of additional information that has been added. Please respond via the form provided on the ViewMate image page. Thank you very much. Mark Shilling

Re: Towns within Poznan region JewishGen' Gazetteer

I have retain slightly modified title of the original posting to keep the thread for the reference.
Of course both towns are not in Poznan region - I have some idea about, as I'm originally from this part of the world. Milicz is located right on the border line between dolnoslaskie (Lower Silesian) and wielkopolskie (i.e. ex Poznan) regions that is not surprising that in original posting town was listed as located within Poznan. Bad Carlsruhe (modern Pokój), on the other hand, is located in the Opole Region, which is not officially a Lower Silesia (L.S. or Wroclawskie) since it was known as Sląsk Opolski or Oppelner Schliesien or sometimes even West - Oberschliesen. Knowledge of Polish - German history is fascinating subject indeed. Best, Alexander Sharon JGFF editor

Re: German Citizenship under Article 116
#germany
Melody Schloss
My husband, my son, and two of my grandchildren received German citizenship under this Article. My father-in-law was the individual through whom they qualified. They applied in December of 2014 and received it in February of 2015. This may, however, been expedited by the fact that my brother-in-law had already gone through the process and received his citizenship, and my husband, etc. could reference his file.
As I recall they did have to have proof of my father-in-law's German birth (we have his birth certificate) and of course, the birth certificates of those applying. They did not have to prove knowledge of the German language. My husband also succeeded in obtaining a German passport. Melody Schloss Santa Barbara CA

Re: Trouble identifying city / town on ship manifest

I can't find these entries on the original Montezuma manifest, arriving New Brunswick, Canada on Mar 23, 1906. The handwriting on your list does not resemble anything on the original and must have been made later.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
By the way, your grandmother did not make her own entry on the passenger list. It was made by a clerk from information given by the ticket purchaser. At that time few immigrants from continental Europe could read or write English, in any case. David Rosen Boston, MA

In the "country" column, my great-grandmother put "Austria," but for "city or town" I cannot tell what was entered. It looks something like "RUBASSA" or "RUBACCA," but I cannot figure it out. It's the fourth one down from the top of the section in the attached image. The manifest is for the S.S. Montezuma, March 23 1906. If anyone has any leads on what this may say, I'd love some help!

I've posted an 1899 Altona death record, in old German script, for which I need one name deciphered.
It is the name of my 4th great-grandmother, that, up to now, has been unknown. (I believe it will list her last name as Samuel). It is on ViewMate at the following address: http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM82337 With my thanks in advance, Jeff Marx Researching ANSPACHER, AUGAPHEL, AUGENBLICK, BREAKSTONE, BREGSTEIN, CARLEBACH, HIEGENLICH, KUBELSKY, MARX

I've posted a photo of my grandfather, Itshok Leib/Leo BADASH from 1930 (photo
may be a passport one). It is on ViewMate at the following address http://www.jewishgen.org/viewmate/viewmateview.asp?key=VM82327 I am curious abut the shirt he is wearing. It it a military shirt? If so, he would have been age 27 to 31 in WWI. He lived in Grodno, but his birth certificate says he was born in Bialystok. Was Grodno ever part of Bialystok district/province? Please respond via the form provided on ViewMate Image page. Thank you very much. David Price researching BADASH/KUSHNER of Grodno, Belarus

Hi Alizah,
Have you traced your grandparents through U.S. census? Naturalizations? Passenger manifests? Especially with a common surname it will help your research to find the town that they came from originally. Naturalization papers (especially post 1906 papers) should give you a town of birth.

Re: Immigration photo possibility
#general
Visas weren't required until the Immigration Act of 1924 (which took effect on July 1, 1924).
If your relatives naturalized after July 1, 1929, there is likely a photo attached to their Declaration of Naturalization (per Naturalization Act of March 2, 1929).

Re: An Old Song - Possibly Russian, possibly Yiddish

Was part of the chorus "kukirika kukirika+ ...toni go kura ?
If so, that was a song that my father used to sing to me - he was born in Poland in 1896. All i remembered was this chorus. Some years ago I sang it to some friends on a kibbutz in Israel and they sang the whole song back to me. Unfortunately, I do not have it and hope that someone else can send us the words. The song is about a rooster crowing in the morning. I assume that it is a children's song for waking up in the morning. Avivah Pinski
I have a very old and distant memory of my grandfather singing a song with a title that sounded like Toni Godl. The o in Toni is short and I have failed to find any reference. -- Avivah R. Z. Pinski , near Philadelphia, USA

Re: Jewish name Dove
#names
avivahpinski@verizon.net
Dov is a fairly common Hebrew name. It means bear and sometimes there is a bear on the individuals's matzevah (gravestone)
The Yiddish equivalent is Baer.

I'm sorry if this sounds silly but in researching a brother of the ancestor, his lists his father's name as Dove on the death certificate. There is nothing on the tombstone. I don't see the name anywhere else in the family and the family I believe is from Poland. I've not seen Dove as a name before and was wondering if it is short, Yiddish, or nickname for something else. He lists his mother as Annie which 2 out of the 4 sons have daughter's named Fannie.Thanks, Karen Gramigna-Warren ************************************************************************************************ -- Avivah R.

Re: passenger manifest missing/not indexed?

If you go to stevemorse.org You can search the pages of any ship arrival By clicking on the ship lists section on the first batch passenger manifests to New York. Type in the name of the ship and the month and year. When it comes up, click on the ship's name and up will come the actual manifest pages to look through. Good luck.

I have found Mexican vital records of Jewish immigrants on Ancestry.com. However, to see the records you need a World Explorer level membership.

Carol asked:
Does anyone have a clue where I could find a marriage and death record for a Polish immigrant who settled in Mexico around 1900-1920, married a few years later, and died in the late 1930s? His name was Max Greenberg from Waldowa; he married Masha Allegant and had two children: “Raquel” and “Juan.” I can find him in a census on line, and found birth records for the two children, but would love to see the other documents. Thanks!

Keep in mind that the info on the immigration docs was often given from memory, and the date and/or the ship name might be wrong. I would look at similar dates and, if necessary, other ships from around the same time. Good luck. George Friedman
