Re: Lasky - Stoltz

BobbyUrbanski — 2009-11-12 19:58:25Z

Thank you for the info. To answer some of your questions. My father Robert was born in Pittsburgh pa.4/23/1900. Parents were Walter Thomas Stoltz, m. was Alice Lasky or Lesky. The marriage papers say Lasky. The ss paper work for mt f. has Alice Lesky.Many years ago a friend said Lasky was Jewish. I have posted on Ancestery, Genealogy.com.Fam. Search and Roots web. No one has ever answered.So I posted on Jewish Roots, and you answered.Dad has a sister, named Alice, My m. met her when her and dad married. I don't know if Alice married.My f. said I was named after her. My m. never met any one else in dads fam. Dad told me Alice was a teacher, in N.Y. or Pa. I did a search on Stoltz's in Pittsburgh Pa. Allegheny Co.There were a few. They never answered my mail. The SS. application tells me what I all ready know. Dad's f. Walter and his m. were b. in Germany. Dad told me he had several brothers no names and 1 sister Alice. My dad died in Bflo. N.Y. 1971. I contacted Ellis Island to do a search for Walter t. Stoltz and Alice Lasky Stoltz from 1885-1900 nothing came up.My g.mother Alice died no date Walter er married. New wife had several children. Dad did not get along with s.fam. so he left, some time in his teen years.I have been searching for 10 years.Dad would get very mad if I asked questions about his fam.My god f.was a good friend of dad's for years. I didn't know mush about him. On the day I married, I asked my g.father if he could tell me any thing about dad's fam. He said If "your dad won't tell you neither can I, you don't want to know. So here we are 2010 and I still know nothing. I to became a teacher like my Aunt. Well that's about it. I will take the Info. you sent to the archives and see what happens. Shalom, Bobby

Re: GOLD/COHEN - I'm stuck!

evan2wo — 2009-11-12 02:52:14Z

I suggest you try looking for them in the 1901 and 1891 Census (I believe you are referring to a town in England). If you cannot locate them, try searching for Gold* with a wildcard, to match-up what you know with some other surname possibilities.

maybe posting on PA board and someone there can do a lookup.

Your parents evidently never told you your uncles names due a rift .Are you sure they are jewish? Wwhere do you think yyour gfather died?

nov.9-10,1938 Kristallnacht remembered by Jewish comunity

mensa73 — 2009-11-05 18:53:20Z

On the night of October 27, 1938, Zindel Grynszpan and his family were arrested by the German police, forced from their home and stripped of their possessions. Grynszpan—a Jewish shopkeeper who had lived in Germany for 27 years—and 17,000 other Jews of Polish citizenship were forced into relocation camps near the Polish border. Enraged by news of the expulsion, Grynszpan's seventeen-year-old son, who was living with relatives in Paris, walked into the German Embassy there and fired five shots at a junior diplomat, who died two days later.

The assassination provided Hitler with the pretext he needed to launch a massive pogrom against German Jews. Over the course of two nights – November 9th and 10th – gangs of Nazi youth stormed Jewish neighborhoods, smashing the windows of Jewish businesses and homes, burning synagogues, looting shops and physically beating and terrorizing thousands of Jewish residents. The name Kristallnacht, loosely translated as the “Night of Broken Glass,” euphemizes the tragic destruction and plundering of Jewish homes, businesses and synagogues which left city and town streets carpeted with broken glass.

Jews were terrorized in their homes and many, including entire families, were driven to suicide. Over 90 Jews were killed, many were beaten, raped, and arrested, and over 30,000 Jews were sent to concentration camps. Synagogues were burned while firemen watched, instructed only to prevent the flames from spreading to nearby (non-Jewish) buildings. Jewish businesses were destroyed by the thousands, cemeteries were desecrated, and schools were vandalized. Many scholars now agree this was a turning point in the German policy regarding the Jews, and the beginning of what we call the Holocaust.

I looked at the 1900,1920 census. I could not find any thing on my Stoltz fam. I also checked several obits and cemetery's that were around in the 1920's and 1930's. Ialso looked into marriage rec.I found nothing. My dad and g.father once told me, "you don't want to know about our fam." What the secret is I don't know. Thanks for your help.

Paloma bat Gedaliah

Ernie_Alderete — 2009-11-05 02:43:13Z

Has anyone researched Paloma bat Gedaliah, daughter of Doctor Gedaliah ibh Yahya?

I just discovered Paloma in my family tree.

I suspect Paloma must be a nickname, as no one else in her lineage has a Spanish name. I think all their names are Hebrew, including her father.

I don't see a mother listed for Paloma.

I've seen are described as a Jewish beauty, but haven't seen any paintings of her.

Thank you for your assistance.

Re: Dutch Jewish Cigar Makers

BabetteBloch — 2009-10-28 23:19:11Z

10/28/09: I just came across your post when I did a Google search for "Dutch Cigar makers". My mother's paternal grandfather, Elias Schavrien, was born in Amsterdam and went to England, where he was a cigar maker. He and his family then came to U.S. in NYC, where he also was a cigar maker. His son Charles, my grandfather, evidently was a cigar maker but became a tobacconist, owning several retail stores and at one time a cigar factory. Charles married Beatrice Pereira, whose father, Moses was also from Amsterdam originally and was also a cigar maker.

Samuel Gompers also was a Dutch cigar maker and formed a Union for those workers before going on to AFL fame.

I was told by members of the English branch of the family that in the 1800's, England brought in many Dutch cigar makers because they would work for less pay than English workers.

Charles Janda was my mother's real father, Joseph Janda was my mother's stepfather.Joesph Janda was born in Bohemia in 1881. And moved to Chicago arond 1900. Charles Janda was born in Chicago in 1883. I have tried , but can't find a connection. I would also like to thank threerent and mensa73 for their help. Bessie Novak was born July 12, 1886. You won't believe how I found out. One day just for the heck of it, I typed in Charles Janda in the message board, and found a post from 2001 titled Charles Janda married Bessie? I have since talked to the lady who posted that by email and by phone. She is my Great Aunt. Is God awesome or what. Allan Dane

In the Social Security Death Index, we found no Louis
Kaufman's
who died as residents of Connecticut during that period.

We found no article or advertisement in The New York Times
for
Tyrolean Handbag Company during the 1960's. However, in the January 16,
1951 New York Times, we found a job advertisement for a monitor board
operator, some steno & typing, clerical work; five days, at Tyrolean
Handbag, 555 8 Avenue.

To narrow down the list of George and Louis Kaufman's to get
an
idea of their places of residence and to get more information about the
Tyrolean Handbag Company, you may want to contact the following agency,
which has records of business registrations for Manhattan:

The January 30, 1962 issue of The New York Times has a death
notice for Louis Kaufman, father of Myron Kaufman of Woodmere, Nassau
County, Long Island. In the April 27, 1967 issue of The New York

there were two death notices for another Louis Kaufman, husband of
Fannie
and father of Lillian, Mildred, and George, grandfather, and brother,
funeral services Garlick Memorial Chapel, 1700 Coney Island Avenue,
Brooklyn, New York, and burial at

In the October 21, 1969 issue of The New York Times, there is a
death notice for a George Kaufman, husband of Ruth (maiden name
Friedman),
brother of Jack and Fred, funeral in Forest Hills, Queens. In the
August
26, 1965 New York Times are two death notices for a George Kaufman, a

In the Social Security Death Index, we found only the
following two Louis Kaufman's who died as residents of New Jersey during
that period:

The January 30, 1962 issue of The New York Times has a death
notice for Louis Kaufman, father of Myron Kaufman of Woodmere, Nassau
County, Long Island. In the April 27, 1967 issue of The New York
Times,
there were two death notices for another Louis Kaufman, husband of
Fannie
and father of Lillian, Mildred, and George, grandfather, and brother,
funeral services Garlick Memorial Chapel, 1700 Coney Island Avenue,
Brooklyn, New York, and burial at
Beth David cemetery, Elmont.

In the October 21, 1969 issue of The New York Times, there is a
death notice for a George Kaufman, husband of Ruth (maiden name
Friedman),
brother of Jack and Fred, funeral in Forest Hills, Queens. In the
August
26, 1965 New York Times are two death notices for a George Kaufman, a
member of Central Synagogue of Rockville Centre, Nassau County, husband
of
Hortense, father of Robert and Donald, and a grandfather.

You may want to consider that possibly none of the above are the
right George and Louis Kaufman. In the Social Security Death Index,
which

following George Kaufman's who died as residents of the state of New

mensa73 — 2009-10-27 19:29:15Z

hi this is the response i just received from Marion :
"
I've tracked the company into the 60's, but have nothing later. A collector was recently in NYC and found some information on the company he will share with me soon. I will certainly get in touch with you when I hear something. If your family has anything they would like to share about the company, I would be delighted to add it to the company page in Bag Lady University."
maybe some new info for you

Re: Tyrolean Handbag Company New York NY

mensa73 — 2009-10-26 23:40:33Z

have just submitted question to the nyc library reference dept. hopefully an answer .

what is this families connection to germany???did they emigrate from there to usa?

I was unable to translate Marion's blog site re handbags as it was in german. She seems to have a keen interest in the bags . Maybe she works for the baglady emporium? are you Dr W who has done much research on this subject?

Re: Tyrolean Handbag Company New York NY

mensa73 — 2009-10-26 23:17:29Z

there are so many with this name listed you must find some snipit of info to narrow it down.

do you have an estimated dob/dod and place-for either man

country of birth for either? name of wife???

If you are related whom is the last person you have info on and start working backwards from he or she.

There may be some info at the us patent office

Re: Tyrolean Handbag Company New York NY

mensa73 — 2009-10-26 22:50:39Z

maybe you have seen the website that shows examples of tyrolean handbags. I have emailed on your behalf to the baglady emporium that is selling the handbags. hopefully they will respond.

Have you contacted the nyc public library?? they may hold an obit on the owners which will have much info..

mostt impressive co!

Re: Tyrolean Handbag Company New York NY

adler78 — 2009-10-27 09:06:43Z

We have been in NYC and have consulted MANY libraries already. WE also consulted the documents of the COURT in NYC.
The "baglady" = Marion Spitzner consulted the magazines : "Handbag and accesories" that ended in 1965.
All that is known is that > LOUIS "POP" KAUFMAN and George KAUFMAN , probably his brother or sun, were managers of the succesful TYROLEAN HANDBAG COMPANY that moved in 1959 from No. 555 of eight's avenue to No. 32o of 95th Street, - when they were probably already "bankrupt".
Probably LOUIS KAUFMAN came from Russia (?)
After 1962 the name of the company faded.
In 1965 it was turned into: "Tyrolean Handbag Sales Company"

Re: Tyrolean Handbag Company New York NY

adler78 — 2009-10-28 08:32:48Z

...what do You mean by:

"I've tracked the company into the 60's, but have nothing later" ?

How DID U "track" & where ?

The "end" of this fine company under manager: LOUIS "Pop" KAUFMAN was around 1959.
Maybe he passed away shortly before 1959 ?

But dont forget: there are so very many KAUFMAN...

Ladychow — 2009-11-02 21:03:24Z

Robert,

I don't have much additional information for you at this time. My cousin Jeff recently went to the cemetery and found Rebecca Grabiner's headstone had been lifted and was no longer face down. The translation is as follows:

Here lies
Our dear mother (????)
Rebbecca daughter of Rev Yosef
Departed 16th Kislev 5680(?) 1919(?)
73 years old (daughter of 73 years)
May her soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life

This translation verifies that her father's name was Joseph. I still believe the Murslowitch spelling is incorrect, but cannot verify that at this time.

Otherwise, your facts are correct.

Thanks Anne. I have connected with a cousin in Hungary and one other unrelated family. I am also looking to find Sarospatak descendants in Israel, where most of them went after the War. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

valembury — 2009-10-22 09:39:48Z

I'm trying to discover when my great uncle Abraham Henkum arrived in the UK from Russia. He was born there in approx. 1867 and married Edith Ellen Hammond in 1897 in the London area. His father's name was Gershon Henkum but I don't if he came over with his son or not.
It would be great to hear if anyone else is researching this family or if anyone can suggest an organisation to check Jewish immigrant lists from Russia for that period.
Many thanks,
Val White

Re: Jewish Societies - can someone help me with this please?

castlept — 2009-10-22 15:03:05Z

I am hoping by now you have some additional information. I know someone suggested that you get the records from the NYC archives. The Italian Genealogy Society offers an index of all nyc death records on their site www.italgen.org for free. It will help you with the certificate numbers when you go to the nyc archives and save you a tremendous amount of time and money. They have a lot of information like bride and groom searches as well. Records can be obtained from the nyc archives in person for $11 per copy and $5 to rent the microfilm to view the files. Please keep that in mind and consider contributing to the Italgen as they really do valuable work.

TO answer your first question - The burial societies could be from the town the deceased was from or a union. good luck
