My grandfather emigrated >from Mogilev to Newark, New
Jersey in 1910. I have an article inscribed
"Mohiliver Ben. Ass'n 25th Anniversary 1952"
I believe this was an organization of people (possibly
only men) who were >from Mogilev. If you have any
information on this organization or any relatives that
were also members please let me know.

Most Grateful,

The New York JGS: http://www.jgsny.org/ has several lists of
landmanshaftn, including the locations of the cemeteries on which they have
graves.

There are about 7 or 8 such organizations for Mogilev.

Some of them have records deposited at YIVO.
