Many Jewish immigrants during that period took jobs as a cutter. My father's first job was as a cutter in 1921. A cutter is a person who cuts fabric. I would refer to this business as the "Shmatah" or clothing business.

Rafael,
I was a member of the team under of the leadership of John Martino of the Italian Genealogy Group that created the index which is used to find deaths, births, marriages, etc. at the NYC Archives. For the most part John's team worked from photocopies of microfilm images of varying quality over the course of many years.We did the best we could to interpret those source documents but team members were frequently required to make educated guesses about the spelling of names, certificate numbers, etc.from records that were barely legible. As a result I would subjectivity rate the accuracy of the index at 70-85% depending on the year. Please bear those limitations in mind when pursuing your research. Marshall

You would ultimately have the same ancestral Eve. It depends how far back your common ancestor lived. Most DNA websites assess how far back your common ancestor lived, certainly on autosomal dna sites, if not on mtdna and ydna sites.

Do you have any more information about CHAMUDIS in your family?
That's my mother's maiden name. Her line comes from TATARBUNAR in Bessarabia and spread to ARGENTINA, CHILE, BRAZIL and the US, where the name was changed to AIMIS. Pablo Libedinsky

An ancestor was killed in a work-related accident in 1894, in New York City. I can't find anything specific about the accident, but city directories & his children's birth records give his occupation as "Cutter."
Anyone know what that is? What type of business would employ such a person? How might it be dangerous? thanks, Phil K.

I urge everyone to take a moment and carefully read these valuable messages from folks like Jan Meisels Allen. This was a very narrow “exposure” of data and as describe by Bruce Brown actually a report by someone who found a vulnerability, reported it to the company and confirmed the problem was corrected.

JONES Etienne H.L.F.
I'm living in Belgium, I think I know the possibilities (I'm self searching for my ancestors since almost 20 y). However, please put some actual questions – what you're exactly wanting to learn – and I'll see what I can tell or even do.
I can nowadays say that it's presently very difficult to do something because the applying limitations (pandemic is maybe well restarting the last 2 weeks), especially also because I'm not living in BRUSSELS, well far from (at the North, close to the Dutch border).

Re: Deportation from U.S. ports back to Eastern Europe

My great uncle, Miksa (Michael) HIRSCHFELD, son of Yosef, was turned back from Ellis Island 20 Jan 1922 because of a heart murmur and sent back to Hodod, now Romania. He was in a labor battalion in Bucharest in Oct 1942. He was able to get to Israel, I do not have any details of how or when, where he died 25 Apr 1976, buried Petach Tikvah, Segulah cemetery, Israel.
He had two daughters by a first wife, unfortunately, no one is left that remembers their names. They did come to visit and stayed with my grandparents when my mother and aunt were young, probably early 1930's. I do have photographs of the girls with my mother and aunt in Astoria NYC and also at Rockaway Beach, NYC. Would be awesome to somehow find out what happened to them.

Looking for Shmil Cioclea
#romania
Ira Chioclea
Dear all geners,
My father , Shmil Cioclea born in Leova in 1912, married Pesea Fixler (my mother )from Hotin in 1937.
They lived in Kishinev till the WW2 started. My father was drafted to the Soviet Armed Forces in 1941
and since then I don't have any information about him and nothing about his faith.
Does any of the geners can supply me with some information about Cioclea family in Leova?
It will help me very much about my research regarding my father and his family.
Best regards,
Jerucham Chioclea , Israel

There aren't many NYC marriage records before 1900. There weren't required licenses.

Dear Virginie,
There is a small hope using this path : In France, there is what we call the "Fond de Moscou", because those files (more than 2 millions of files!) were stolen during the WW2 and then given back in 1990s to the French National Archives In real those files are multiples -- and you may find several records (from a simple administrative letter, to much much more, including photo, passport (in real limited right to stay in France), etc.. Is Wengelenski the right name to search ? Can you please share as well the first name ? Many thanks Regards David david.choukroun@...

Make a request at Find a Grave. All you have to do is ask the photographer to take a clear picture of the reverse side of the stone. I've done that several times. Just go to the person's memorial. There should be a request photo on the left. Click that and a box should come up for special instructions. Just give what you want and be sure to thank the photographer. At least it's not knee deep in snow right now.
