Morning! I have just updated the surnames lists: http://www.british-jewry.org.uk/Surname%20List.htm I have also updated the document share list: http://www.british-jewry.org.uk/New%20Member%20Area/Certificates/Certificates.htm Both of which should be working, but, as ever, if you have a problem, let me know. Happy Hunting and Shabbat Shalom, Sherry Landa (23170, Viersat, FRANCE) NB When replying to this email please remember to remove the word ADMIN from the subject line.

Dear Genners, For those of us who don't subscribe, one can play around with the keyword search, that is, try using different words that ought to be in the notice. This may bring up more or different parts of the notice so that you can read it better. Good luck, -- Jeremy G Frankel ex Edgware, London, England Berkeley, California, USA EBIN: Russia, New York, USA FRANKEL: Poland, London, England GOLDRATH/GOLD: Praszka, Poland, London, England KOENIGSBERG: Vilkaviskis, Lithuania, London, England, NYC, NY, USA LEVY (later LEADER): Kalisz, Poland, London, England PRINCZ/PRINCE: Krakow, Poland, London, England, NYC, NY, USA

That's what happens on the JC Archive site when you are not subscribed. You have to "guess" from what you can see on the index search. Normally you get a couple of lines from the paper with a few bits missing or funny symbols because the OCR indexing process is not perfect but you can usually take a reasonable guess at what the item says/should say for example if it read fissnanger you would guess fishmonger from what you already know. Sherry Landa (23170, Viersat, FRANCE) I'm supposed to have Adobe 8, but when I go to the JC site and bring up a search for Zalig and go to the achive and ask for page one the single page comes up with strips missing.

Thanks Keira, I have them in my other inbox. People: remember you can send certificate details you wish to share to us! The form to do this is at http://www.british-jewry.org.uk/New%20Member%20Area/Certificates/Certificates.htm Thanks Sherry (23170, Viersat, FRANCE) I have sent you two marriage certificate details. Maybe you could send a reminder for listers to put up information of BMD certificates that do not match with their family/families.

Raymond - Sam Galinsky living in Leeds was naturalised in 1897. Might be connected to Harris. The file is open and says he is from Russia. There is also a Harris - Herschl - Galinsky living in London who naturalised in 1930. There are a number of Galinsky's who naturalised if you have a look at the National Archives site. www.nationalarchives.gov.uk and search the Catalogue. I have Woolfson's who originate from Bobruisk in case you find out more about Sarah.

Dear Raymond, After having read your request for help with GALINSKY, I suggest that you refer to the List of marriages and burials at the following site: http://www.jewishgen.org/JCR-uk/Leeds.htm Here you write the surnames and receive names and then compare original dates,addresses, Brides,grooms, fathers' names and their occupations. There is a lot of imformation about Galinsky. If you need some extra help please contact me privately As my Leeds cousin is married to one of the decendants. Brenda Habshush, Israel. . .

I have a little information on this Ray, & I'm happy to pass on the few details if you want to contact me on mac.hill@virgin.net Regards, Mike Hill Ascot, UK Cohen / Jacobs / Moses London 19th C

Jeremy Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be a connection, my GALINSKY family seem to be based in Leeds. Many thanks for your email. Regards Raymond Wilby Morley, West Yorkshire UK Researching: Wilby; Walker; Pollard; Featherstone; Farrow; Rayner; Knox; Rhodes; Broomhead.

Hello Raymond, Welcome. Do you have an occupation for Harris GALINSKY? I have one in my database who might fit, but in 1891 he was married to Fanny. I also have a Sarah WOLFSON who might fit, but have no marriage for her. The problem is that both WOLFSON & GALINSKY can be spelled in a variety of ways. Do you know if Leah was the oldest child (I ask to try to narrow down the marriage date)? Of course, the obvious answer might be that they were not married in UK! Sherry (23170, Viersat, France) I am new to this list. I am looking for information on a Harris GALINSKY, a tailor's cutter, from Leeds, West Yorkshire, UK, for a friend, who is the daughter of Israel Galinsky below.

Hi Keira, Would you please put the details (I know you just did them) into a form for me? Then I will add them to the Share Centre. I have a couple of surname updates to do as well. Form is at http://www.british-jewry.org.uk/New%20Member%20Area/Certificates/Certificates.htm Thanks Sherry (23170, Viersat, FRANCE) I ordered a wedding certificate and it is not the one I wanted.

> My city is beautiful Melbourne. See, now I can bang on about the Storm as well as genealogy, could life get more perfect? ;-) We have a sub-group in Melbourne, they will be interested to know you are there too. See http://www.british-jewry.org.uk/Gallery.htm Sherry (23170, Viersat, FRANCE)

Listers, Would any one be able to do a lookup in the Jewish Chronical for anything on Zalig Hart [fishmonger]please? He very likely would be my g/g/grandfather. He had a connection to the Great Synagogue of London. My g/grandfather Benjamin [b1851] was married in the GSL in 1875 before bringing his family to Australia. Not having a subscription to JC it seems I can't read the pages I would like to. Regards to all, Ray

Dear Ray, Victoria, is fine. We don't expect your full street address, in fact, it's actively discouraged for safety reasons! It just helps to know who can go where for what. Now we know you can't go anywhere we'll give the same advice as we do for anyone without facilities on their doorstep (i.e those in Middle East are not sent to their nearest LDS library as they don't have one!) We all find the price of certificates shocking. Sadly, in UK some things you only get from a certificate and some things you don't get from them so it's a question of buying wisely. There are lots of people here who will do free census look ups etc for you-if you ask. What you need to do, is just tell people what you know (i.e. I know she died/was divorced between 1871 and the date of the remarriage, because I have her in the 1871 census OR I would like to find her in the censuses before 1878 so I can narrow down her death/divorce etc). Best wishes, Sherry (23170, Viersat, FRANCE) You ask where I am, for now lets just say I'm in Victoria <snip>

Hi, There should be something on there-usually it gives the address at the time of application and any other addresses for a given period. How long seems to depend. I think the minimum is about 4 years. You should be able to add a proviso when you ask for a quotation (i.e. only if the occupation is X or he was born about Y or the address was Z etc). It's a long time since I asked for a quotation from them, so I am not completely sure. This might appear in their FAQs? Let us know how you get on. Sherry Thanks for the help! I'm in New York, USA. If I order the naturalization papers will there be something on it that would indicate to me that this Henry Myers is the same as my Henry Myers (ie. father's name or current address)?

David Think we have corresponded in the past. I am missing a couple of JOSEPH siblings born London between 1784 and 1800 but do not know if there was a Jacob. The father was Isaac and he was one of the founders of the Maiden Lane Synagogue.

Joseph > Levy died in 1835 and I guess that Ester was born shortly befotre 1800. > > David Alexander, Puycelsi, France.

I ordered a wedding certificate and it is not the one I wanted. Maria JOSEPH, full age, spinster of 133 Leadenhall Street, daughter of Judah Joseph, deceased married 21 April 1841 at 133 Leadenhall Street, London Samuel WIENGARTEN, full age, bachelor, sponge merchant of 24 Mansell Street, Goodmans Fields, son of David Wiengarten, deceased. The marriage was conducted by someone from the Hambro Synagogue. If it relates to anyone I would be happy to post it. Keira Lockyer Country Victoria, Australia.

Dear Raymond and Sherry, I have a Sarah GALINSKY who married a George (born Gustave) GOLDFIELD in London in 1911. Her father's name was Marks GALINSKY. I also know that some of the BMD indices incorrectly list their children's last name as GOLISKY. Any connections? Incidentally, I am doing the above research for a friend, it's not my family. -- Jeremy G Frankel ex Edgware, London, England Berkeley, California, USA EBIN: Russia, New York, USA FRANKEL: Poland, London, England GOLDRATH/GOLD: Praszka, Poland, London, England KOENIGSBERG: Vilkaviskis, Lithuania, London, England, NYC, NY, USA LEVY (later LEADER): Kalisz, Poland, London, England PRINCZ/PRINCE: Krakow, Poland, London, England, NYC, NY, USA
