Lecture Notes regarding Boston Seminar 1996 by the Lauren B. Eisenberg Davis
So it conversation involves the signs from approach surnames regarding towns and cities out of Checiny, Poland and Krasnystaw, Poland, which have an instance of a case study from Krasnystaw. Refer to the summer 1996 problem of AVOTAYNU for additional talk from Checiny advice.
In my journey to obtain my MANELA forefathers for the Checiny, I discovered the newest notation “MANELA v KWART”. ‘v’ signifies ‘vel’, this new Latin word meaning ‘also recognized as’. Many cases of ‘vel’ depict a change ranging from a few labels. It’s important to keep in mind that records tend to exist with only one among these surnames too. ‘vel’ is not the merely sign of a version surname, but it is by far the most effortlessly known.
Facts age. (This is really an error, maybe not a version surname, however, causes the same variety of dilemma in the look).
Personality by patronymic (father’s offered term) as opposed to a great surname. Distress can also be arise having labels one to qualify since both a surname otherwise given term. To own a woman defined as “Haia Manela”: try Manela the new father’s given identity or surname?
The final expression is one of tough to trace. It will become vital to imagine all the activities for the important registrations, together with patronyms, age, and you may jobs, in order to suits groups of relatively different surnames. That department of the Manela-Kwart clan started initially to utilize the surname Goldrat around 1822. The real partnership was only possible due to the family of a wedded sibling of the people whoever youngsters’ registrations mirrored that it surname alter. Regardless of if very Checiny female registered by the patronym, it lady utilized their own maiden labels out-of Manela and Kwart, and ultimately Goldrat too. She are easier to pick than just her cousin, since she stayed e people, to own whom I was able to pick a constant job, surname and patronym.
The latest switching regimes of your own part may help define it phenomon off abrupt purchase of yet another surname right now. During the 1795, Checiny fell less than Austrian signal throughout the third partition out of Poland, and you will became element of Western Galicia. The newest Jews regarding Checiny was necessary to embrace surnames underneath the Austrian techniques in 1805. In 1809, Austria ceded Western Galicia for the Napoleonic Duchy from Warsaw. Following inside 1815, the newest Kingdom off Poland (Congress Poland) was founded from the Congress away from Vienna, and you may fell beneath the leadership of one’s Tzar off Russia. Surnames were required having Jews in Russian Poland into the 1821. For that reason, specific family kvinnor Franska members, otherwise merely particular twigs away from family, reverted on the previous surnames from the Austrian mandate, while some took on new identities.
The family of Marya Cukierman and you may ily lookup. And the relationships out of Marya and you may Jankiel, therefore the births of the a couple daughters, I found a moment relationship to own Jankiel, not I got not receive a dying checklist getting Marya. On top of that, Jankiel had other mothers toward his several matrimony registrations:
1845 Relationship #3: Groom: Jankiel Goldman, young man from Herszek (deceased) and you will Sura Goldman Fiance: Marya Cukierman, child from Lipa (deceased) and you will Perla Cukierman
Option Surnames into the Russian Poland
1856 Relationships #2: Groom: Jankiel Goldman (widower), young man regarding Herszek and Sura Cukierman Bride: Fajga Klarman, daughter of Szloma Klarman and Chana Szajn
Why performed es on the one or two records? Herszek Goldman is dead of the 1845; did Sura remarry a great Herszek Cukierman by 1856, just in case very, why is actually he noted just like the Jankiel’s dad?
I started initially to manage complete public information extractions into the Krasnystaw, and this in the beginning just supported so you’re able to mistake the issue further:
Zero term was delivered to the newest inactive dad. Is actually Cukierman Sura Rywa’s age, otherwise did she perhaps remarry prior to the subscription of the infant’s delivery?
1855 Dying #5: Decedant: Sura Rywa Goldman, widow Father: Herszek Cukierman Mom: Fajga Sons: Icyk Goldman, Jankiel Goldman Child: Mendla Stycer, widow
It was a bit an unusual dying list to possess Krasnystaw, and therefore generally considering zero survivors’ checklist, and sometimes no mothers. It’s interesting to remember one Sura Rywa’s moms and dads may be the grand-parents out-of Marya Cukierman. And therefore Marya and her husband Jankiel Goldman were very first cousins. Hence, Jankiel’s moms and dads had been indexed less than the correct surname into the his 18e within the 1856. In addition, the brand new fatherless little one off 1833 is actually brand new young man of Sura Rywa Cukierman and you will Herszek Goldman.
The brand new lookup is on to find Mendla Stycer. However which was not their unique actual term, however, she try simple to identify. Several facts stayed to have a young widow called Mindla Stancygier, who joined college students under the maiden brands of Cukierman and you will Goldman. Although not, per puzzle repaired, significantly more constantly seemed to facial skin. Mindla Stancygier’s most predominant maiden name was Fliswaser.
There clearly was only 1 Fliswaser loved ones into the Krasnystaw, and thus off my personal comprehensive examination of the city, I got come to know all brand new customers quite well. Josef Fliswaser, a beneficial glazier, along with his spouse Dwojra, had multiple daughters in advance of Dwojra’s passing in early 1830s. We gone back to the latest records of your own 1830s searching for clues.
Following fatalities regarding Herszek Goldman and you can Dwojra Fliswaser, Josef Fliswaser hitched Sura Cukierman. Mindla had been a child, and you may was born in the place to find Josef Fliswaser, seem to leading to their particular to use their title since the their unique no. 1 mode out-of term.
Herszek Goldman and you will Sura Rywa Cukierman was basically identified on the Jankiel’s 1845 relationships once the Goldman and on his 1856 marriage given that Cukierman.
The latest 1833 delivery of Herszek Lipa Goldman don’t choose his surname. The sole surname on the listing is actually the fresh maiden label away from their mother, Sura Rywa Cukierman.
New 1855 loss of Sura Rywa Goldman was joined within the surname regarding her very first spouse, unlike their particular newest husband, Josef Fliswaser, and she was recognized as the fresh widow away from Herszek Goldman.
The fresh 1855 Loss of Sura Rywa Goldman recognized her child since Mendla Stycer, during actual life, Mendla’s age are Stancygier.
Mendla Stancygier made use of three more maiden names: Goldman – her father’s name, Cukierman – their particular mother’s maiden identity, and you may Fliswaser – their unique stepfather’s surname.
To close out, you could potentially piece together a complete picture merely by the examining All checklist, just all of the list of one’s surname(s) of interest. Full public information extractions are the best service.
