Translation: Romanian from Iasi #translation #romania
Hello everyone, I've posted a vital record in Romanian for which I need a translation. It is written across 4 pages and is on ViewMate at the following addresses. I would appreciate a translation, and in particular I'm trying to find out if the witness Smil sin Leib is related to the bride. It is the marriage record of Avram SPINER and Rifca Mariam SMIL.

searching information on a lost relative who left Polotsk for Palestine 3 #belarus #israel
Is there a database of those who left Russian Empire for Palestine in the beginning of the 20th century? My grandfather Sholom Israejlevich Ganelin (son of R. Israel Ganelin and Rivka Schneerson-Ganelin from Polotsk) came from a family of 8 siblings. I was told by my mother that the oldest of the siblings (possibly by the name of Mendel or Mandel) left for Palestine, and then the contact with him was lost. A while back I was sent a translated excerpt from a newspaper called Hamelitz (first Hebrew newspaper in Russia?), dated November 3, 1902, stating the marriage or engagement of Mendel, the son of Rabbi Yisroel Yehiel Ganelin from Polotsk to the daughter of Yechezkel Meisel. Thank you very much for any leads or ideas. Alla Model

Announcing the publication of the Book of Bursztyn #ukraine #JewishGenUpdates #yizkorbooks
Shalom Everybody, JewishGen Press is proud to announce our 186th title: 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐳𝐭𝐲𝐧 (Burshtyn, Ukraine). This is the translation of Sefer Bursztyn. Details: 8.5”x11” 256 pages, hardcover with original photographs Editor of Original Yizkor Book: S. Kanc Project Coordinator: Rivka Chaya Schiller Cover Design: Irv Osterer Layout: Jonathan Wind Name Indexing: Jonathan Wind Book Description: Bruce Drake Burshtyn, Ukraine is located at 49°16' N 24°38' E and 274 miles WSW of Kyyiv. The Jewish community of Bursztyn can be dated to the early 17th century. The first synagogue in the town was erected in the mid-18th century. Like many Jewish towns in the region, Burshtyn came under the rule of several countries. It was part of the Polish-Lithuanian empire until 1772 before passing to Austria-Hungary. During the tumultuous period of World War I, it was occupied briefly by Russia, flipped back to Austria-Hungary and then to the short-lived West-Ukrainian People’s Republic before being absorbed into the reconstituted nation of Poland between 1918 and 1939. After World War II, it became the Soviet Socialist Republic of Ukraine until becoming independent in 1991. Around 2,000 Jews lived in Burshtyn at the turn of the 20th century, a number that dipped in the wake of World War I, during which the town suffered significant damage, which is recounted in the book. Heavy battles took place around the city and a large number of Jews fled westward to refugee camps in Bremen, Moravia, and Austria. Some returned following the war. Death and destruction struck again with the start of World War II and the Nazi occupation. The handful of those who survived the Nazi horrors recount the terrible sufferings undergone by the Jews of Burshtyn in this Memorial Book: they describe the lives of their families in the town’s ghetto and later in the ghettos of Bukaczowce and Rohatyn. Those who were not killed there, met their end in the extermination camps of Majdanek and Auschwitz. A long section consists of photographs and names of those who perished. The book also provides a rich picture of life in the town: its religious traditions, the livelihoods of its people and the education of its children. As one passage says, the role of the book was not to be merely a memorial candle for those who met terrible deaths, but to speak of the town’s Jewish common folk, so future generations would understand what was destroyed. Now available for the first time in English translation. May this book serve as a memorial to those who lived, worked and dreamed in Bursztyn. For more information and how to order, please visit: Book of Bursztyn To see all JewishGen Press publications, please visit: JewishGen Press Publications Congratulations to all who made this publication possible!

Viewmate Translation/transcription from ship manifest 6 #translation
Hi, I posted this several years ago and got a partial response so I thought it might be worthwhile to try again. https://www.jewishgen.org/ViewMate/memberadmin/responselist.asp?showmaster=1&viewmateid=61273 This is a snippet from my ggf's (Bernhard Stall) ship manifest from 1909. The column is asking for the closest relative in the country he was leaving. I can pick out "sister" and "Kolom" (i.e. Kolomea) Another genner supplied the first name "Hence" but was stumped on the last name. I was also curious what the words are after "Kolom" Thanks, Sheryl Stahl -- Sheryl Stahl (Los Angeles) Suwalki (RAKOVSKI, OKRAGLINSKI,) Wizajni (RAKOVSKI) Kalvarja (FRIEDMAN, SUWALSKI), Odessa (STESSEL) Pervomaysk (STESSEL) Grzymalow (LANDAU) Kolomyya (STAHL, SCHMERTZLER, KRAIMER) Chernivtsi (STAHL)

Open request for assistance. I am seeking someone within the Latvia RG or SIG who can direct me in getting the use if services for a request for family connections. I have family information covering the LOTKIN family in Belarus. I am interested if the LOTKIN names in Latvia have any connections. As of now I do not have any information (other than a ray of hope) that there would be any connections. The chance of any connections would be through any generations between 1800 through 1870 and those possibilities would be either brothers (unknown to us) or cousins who left for Latvia.

Annie Alter Rosenthal 3 #translation #usa
My ancestor, Annie Alter (1875-1972), married Herman Rosenthal in Brooklyn, New York, before 1897. I found her tombstone in Washington Cemetery, Brooklyn, and had the Hebrew on it translated. So I know her Hebrew name is aleph-nun-ayin b Leizer, and her father referred to as Mr. Leizer. So is aleph-nin-ayin Hebrew for A-n-a? Ana Leizer? The tombstone also refers to Cong. Agudath Bnei Koidesh Anshe Krohz. Congregation? Is that her church? Any input would be appreciated. Linda Ulleseit San Jose, California

JGS Toronto. Virtual Meeting. The Trial of Rudolf Kasztner, Part 2 with Trudy Gold. Wednesday, 15 May 2024, 4 PM ET. #events #announcements #jgs-iajgs
JGS TORONTO GLOBAL HERITAGE SIG and CLASSI LECTURES The Trial of Rudolf Kasztner, Part 2 with Trudy Gold. 15 May 2024 at 4 pm EDT Fifty-two members of Malchiel Gruenwald’s family had been murdered in the Shoah. He wrote a pamphlet in which he accused Rudolf Kasztner of complicity in the killings. As Kasztner was an employee of Israel’s left-wing Government, the attorney General decided to sue for libel. A brilliant defense lawyer, who had been a member of the Irgun, savaged Kasztner to such an extent that the judge accused Kasztner of dealing with the Devil. Tragically this was one of the main building blocks of the far left’s obscene allegation that the Zionists cooperated with the Nazis to bring about the Jewish State. This is an appalling conspiracy theory that is becoming more widespread than ever. The case opened wounds that have never healed and asks fundamental questions about Israel, the Jewish people, and our relationship to the outside world. In March 1944, the Nazis invaded Hungary intent on murdering the 900,000 Jews now within their grasp. Rudolf Kasztner was a leader of the Budapest Aid and Rescue Committee which had previously smuggled Jewish refugees into the relative safety of Hungary. He was assigned to deal with Adolf Eichmann, could any Jews be saved? In this two-part series we will deal with the moral dilemmas of individuals trapped in hell, and the ensuing court case in Israel which culminated in Kasztner’s assassination.

JGS Toronto. Virtual Meeting. The Displaced Persons Camps (DP) with Anne Dublin. Thursday, 16 May 2024, 4 PM EDT. #announcements #jgs-iajgs #events
JGS TORONTO GLOBAL HERITAGE SIG and CLASSI LECTURES The Displaced Persons Camps (DP) with Anne Dublin. 16 May 2024 at 4 pm EDT After World War II, approximately 250,000 Holocaust survivors lived in displaced persons (DP) camps, mainly in Austria and Germany. Most of them were stuck in these DP camps for years before being allowed to immigrate to other countries, like Israel, the United States, and Canada. Why did people flee their home countries and search for safety in the DP camps? What were conditions like in the camps, and how did the refugees cope with often difficult circumstances? This is a story of courage, resourcefulness, and ultimately, of hope. As part of our continued partnership with Classi Lectures, JGS Toronto members can attend at no cost: I. The Trial series II.
