Translation of Ratno Yizkor Book by Nachman Tamir Pdf

This is the translation of Ratno, Ukraine Yizkor Book; The Story of the Destroyed Jewish Community; The marshy garrison town of Ratno--Which at different times would be part of Lithuania, Poland, and Ukraine--began on the banks of the Pripyat River in the 14th century. Jewish presence there grew from about 12 families in 1565 to 1,554 people, or 64.5% of the population, in 1921. Jews were active in the town's civic life; some became city council members. Jews made their living as tailors, seamstresses, shoemakers, furniture makers, millers, manufacturers, builders and carpenters. In the 1920s, Ratno boasted a famous synagogue, several cheders, including one for girls; a Tarbut school of 200 students, a library with a drama club, two competing Zionist youth groups, and a chapter of the Women's International Zionist Organization. On June 28, 1941 the German Wehrmacht occupied the town. With the Ukrainian auxiliary police, they began a reign of anti-Jewish measures and killings. In spring 1942 the Germans established a ghetto, forcing 2,500 Jews to live there. After a partisan raid, more than 110 Jews were shot "in retaliation." On August 26, 1942, the Gestapo, the German constabulary and Ukrainian auxiliary police, murdered the ghetto's entire population. In February 1943 the remaining Jews were also murdered. Almost nothing remains of this rich, vibrant Jewish community. This book--a new translation of the 1983 book published in Israel-- preserves its memory for future generations

Grajewo Poland Memorial (Yizkor) Book by Dr George Gorin Pdf

This is the translation of the Memorial (Yizkor) Book of Jewish community of Grajewo, Poland. 356 pages, 8.5" by 11," paperback, including all photos and other images. Jews have been living in Grajewo, in the province of Bialystok, Poland since the late 17th century. The 1765 census counted 83 Jewish people. By 1857, the number had grown to 1,457, comprising 76% of the town's population. By 1921, the percentage of Jews had decreased to 39%. In 1933, anti-Jewish outbreaks occurred in Grajewo. During the Soviet occupation between September 1939 and June 1941, Jewish businesses were nationalized. The invasion of Grajewo on 22 June 1941 by the Nazis marked the beginning of the devastation and horrors thrust upon the Jewish population. Within a few months, 1,600 to 2,000 Jews had been sent to the transit camp at Bogosza and on to the extermination camps at Treblinka and Auschwitz. The United Grayever (Grajewo) Relief Committee memorialized the Jewish Community of Grajewo by publishing the original Yiddish Yizkor Book in 1950. Now it is available in English for current and future generations to learn of the rich history of this community. Grajewo is located 114 miles NNE of Warsaw. Alternate names for the town include Grajewo (Polish), Grayavah (Yiddish), Graevo (Russian), Grayeve, and Grayevo.

Devenishki Book; Memorial Book by David Shtokfish Pdf

If history is made by ordinary people then this book is history at its core. There is a refreshing honesty in these writings, portraying town-folk, foibles and all, in their humility and worldly-wisdom. Everyday acts of kindness and humor abound. One town resident, Tsvi Krizovski, became fascinated with photography in the early 20th Century, assuming the role of unofficial town photographer. Krizovski's photographs capture the spirit of Divenishok in a way that mere words cannot. Over 100 photos accompany the articles, in many instances depicting the persons mentioned in the text, allowing us to witness the cultural, religious, sporting, economic, and social life of the town as it was in those days. The combined word-and-picture effect is a treasurable cinematic memorial to an extinguished Jewish-Lithuanian community. This is the Memorial or Yizkor Book of the Jewish Community of Divenishok, Lithuania -Adam Cherson (Translation Editor)

A Memorial to the Jewish Community of Zhetl (Dzyatlava, Belarus) by Baruch Kaplinski Pdf

If you're reading this it's because you want to learn about the now extinct Jewish village of Zhetl, known today as Dyatlovo, Belarus. Unfortunately, you can't read it in Yiddish. Sixty-Five years after this Zhetl Yizkor book was originally published, I am honored to make it available to the English-speaking world. Why do you care about Zhetl? If you're like me, it's probably because your parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, uncles, aunts or cousins were born and lived in Zhetl. A few of them survived, all of them tried to, but most of them were savagely murdered during humanity's lowest point in modern history: the Holocaust of World War II. If you're like me, you've heard bits and pieces of your family's Zhetl's stories over the years. Some of them get repeated to the point where you no longer hear them. Then one day you wake up and want to know more. You want to ask the questions which your youthful self didn't have the time, nor interest, to ask. But alas, our Zhetl is gone. Therein lies the wisdom of our dear Zhetl relatives. They knew this day would come. We all owe a debt of gratitude to all the authors who made the time to tell their stories, as painful as it was. To Baruch Kaplinski (z"l) for editing the original 1957 version and to Mordecai (Motl) Dunetz (z"l), for passionately gathering and editing materials from former Zhetl residents and survivors the world over for nearly a decade in order to drive the project through to its completion.
