Fundraising Project, Priluki - Document Acquisition and Translation

Lisa Wanderman

In progress

The JewishGen Ukraine SIG is digitizing nine reels of microfilms from the Family History Library (FHL) of vital records from Priluki, a town in the Poltava Province of the Russian Empire. These records date from 1855-1917 and include births, marriages, deaths and divorces.

These vital records are record books handwritten by rabbis in cursive Russian and Hebrew documenting all births, deaths, marriages and divorces of the Priluki community. Each microfilm includes approximately 4-28 of these books. The records, especially from the early years, can be extremely damaged and very difficult to read. The majority of records, even from 1855, give family names and not just patronymics. The amount of information is enormous. There are, however, some gaps in the records, as a few books have evidently not survived: 1880 Births, for instance, is missing.

In addition to the FHL in Salt Lake City, all nine microfilms (listed below) are now in the collection of the Center for Jewish History (CJH) in Manhattan, NY.

This huge, multistep project involves the work of multiple people who will:
digitally scan the microfilms,
label each file,
translate the high resolution digital files,
place the information on specific format spreadsheets,
proof the spreadsheets,
process them for eventual upload to the JewishGen Ukraine Database

There are a total of approximately 12,000 individual records requiring thousands of hours of work.

Scanning of the microfilms started in the spring of 2013. It is estimated that the scanning will be completed by volunteers by the end of 2015.

To date, translation has been done on a volunteer basis and is going extremely slowly. It is hoped to raise enough funds to hire one or more professional translators to speed up the work and free the volunteers to tackle other, non-funded projects.

The new datasets will be integrated into the JewishGen Ukraine Database, Ukraine SIG Master Name Index, and appropriate KehilaLinks websites.

In progress

The JOWBR of JewishGen in coordination with the Ukraine Chernigov Research group of Rootsweb and the Ukraine SIG are working together to photograph and document all the remaining graves and headstones in the Jewish cemeteries found in Chernigov Gubernia or Province in Ukraine. Local photographers will be hired and the photographing will take place according to JOWBR guidelines in order to register all the names and inscription information in the JOWBR database. The towns scheduled to be photographed will be Chernigov, Borzna, Glukhov, Gorodnya, Konotop, Kozelets, Krolevets, Mglin, Nezhin, Novgorod-Seversk, Novozybkov, Oster, Sosnitsa, Starodub, Surazh, and Priluki.
