Hello,
I was wondering if anyone would have access to the book "Jewish Religious Personnel in the Russian Empire, 1853-1854" ("Sinagogi, Molitvenne Doma i Sostoyashchie pri nikh Dolzhnostne Litsa v Cherte Evreiskoi Osedlosti i Guberniyakh Kurlyandskoi i Liflyandskoi Rossiiskoi Imperii 1853-1854") by Genrich M. Deych which JewishGen has created an index for at this URL: https://www.jewishgen.org/databases/misc/deych.htm According to the page above, this book is available at "YIVO, the New York Public Library [*PXW 93-1103], Harvard University [Circ. HWMSWV], and at the library of the University of California at Berkeley, among others." I am hoping someone might have the time and ability to access a physical copy on my behalf and see if there is any additional information beyond what is included in JewishGen's indexed results for the following entry: NAME: KOGAN, Ios TOWN: Akkerman GUBERNIYA: bes026 (meaning: Guberniya of Bessarabia, listing number at which the name is found in the book [nomer] 026) According to JewishGen's summary of the contents of the book, the book may include information beyond the indexed results including:
I appreciate anyone's help and advice and would certainly be happy to compensate you for your time! -- Chloë Kogan Arizona, USA Email: KoganAncestry@... Researching:

Many years ago I contacted the Yivo library, gave them the exact details I had from JewishGen, and they very kindly and graciously sent me a scanned copy of the page.
The text is in Russian. -- Odeda Zlotnick Jerusalem, Israel. |

Try an interlibrary loan. That is how I access rare books.

I came across an indexed entry for an ancestor in this book - I emailed the NYPL with the finding information, and they got back to me very quickly with the scanned page.
There was no charge at that time - in 2017, I think. Unfortunately there was no additional information to be gleaned from the page (once I had it translated). I have never been sure, though, if there was another page with more complete information elsewhere in the book. Elise Cundiff |

I want to thank everyone for their advice and recommendations!
I am responding publicly because I want to share that a very helpful member of JewishGen gave me the contact information of someone with direct access to a scanned copy of the book in question and they are helping me get the page I'm interested in. I don't want to post that person's information publicly, but I do want to let folks know that if they are looking for records in this book and don't have easy access to a copy, please email me privately and I will share their contact info with you. Thank you all, Chloe -- Chloë Kogan Arizona, USA Email: KoganAncestry@... Researching:
