Hi Bessarabia, Moldovan and Ukrainian researchers
Dubossary KehilaLinks website is completed and available at JewishGen. You can directly access it at http://kehilalinks.jewishgen.org/dubasari/ Dubossary used to be part of Kherson Gubernia in Russian Empire, and now part of Moldova / Pridnestrovskaya Moldavskaya Republic. This is 16th Kehila Links website completed at Bessarabia SIG, and two more are in progress. See all sites available at http://www.jewishgen.org/Bessarabia/KehilaLinks.html I wish we have a 100 Kehila Links websites... for many towns, shteitlakh and villages were Jews used to live in Bessarabia and Moldova. Please come forward to create such memorials for towns, localities you care about. If you have some information about that locale, a little history of Jews in that place, maybe some stories/photos, that would be enough to make a website... All the best, Yefim Kogan Bessarabia SIG Coordinator Researching KOGAN, SPIVAK, KHAYMOVICH, SRULEVICH, LEVIT in Kaushany, Bendery, Tarutino, Akkerman, Kiliya - all in Bessarabia, KHAIMOVICH in Galatz, Romania, KOGAN in Dubossary, Moldova, SRULEVICH in Shanghai, China

Seeking Family in Belgium
#general
Susan Goldsmith
Dear Jewish Gen,
This is a long shot, but I am seeking a twenty-six year old Belgian Jewish young man whose first name is Abel, and his French-speaking grandparents who raised him. The grandfather is an artist and an art professor at a Belgian university, the grandmother is Israeli and a clothing designer and/or importer in Belgium. I would recognize the family name, but cannot recall it. Thank you for any leads you may have. Please respond to me privately. Best Regards, Susan Goldsmith San Francisco Bay Area, California Researching in Lithuania: GOLDSHMID, GITTES (GADYE, GADIE), FILVINSKY, PILVINSKY, SHLIOMOVICH in Belarus: TOBIAS/TOUBES, HOROWICZ, ROZANSKY, MIRANSKY

Burials of Rabbis in America
#general
Moishe Miller
Dear Group,
I am not sure if this was ever posted, but I just came across a website devoted to burials of Rabbis in North America. It is http://www.kevarim.com/ There are postings and commentary on some of the burials which can yield treasures of genealogical information. As an example, see a posting on my cousin: http://kevarim.com/rabbi-yosef-lauer/ I have no other information or detail on this website, having only just stumbled across it today. Good luck in your own research endeavors! Moishe Miller moishe.miller@totalben.com Brooklyn, NY

Re: Surname "CHERRY"
#general
rita shapiro <rivke@...>
CHERRY in Yiddish/German also translates to KIRSCH or KIRSCHEN
(plural) and KIRSTEIN which translates in French to CHIRSEN and any variation of these names that one might think of would witness the rule to use your imagination to think of other possibilities. My own experience of finding my Father's second cousin who recalled hearing his Father lament the fact that my Father had "changed" his name to KIRSTEIN to give the family a little more panache perhaps with a name of German sounding derivation.

Re: Death Certificates/Registrations Lithuania - Help please?
#general
Marcella Shames
Hi List
Does anyone know where or how I can apply for death certificates/registrations or get burial information for three people who died in Lithuania? All three people listed below died of natural causes. 1. Pesah SHAMES d Dec 14 1935 - registered in Mazeikiai Jewishgen has a record of his death in 1935. Would the information on that record be all there is or would there be more detail elsewhere - like where he is/was buried? Parent's last names, maybe?? 2. Leah Shames JOSELOVICH d 1987 Vilnius I know nothing more about this death except parents were Pesah SHAMES and Sore GERTSMARK 3. Hane/Chana JOSELOVICH d 1946 Vilnius 14 year-old daughter of Leah Shames (above) and Simon Joselovich. Died of meningitis. Any help, suggestions or ideas with the above is much appreciated Thanks Marcella Shames
