Ciwie ROTTENBERG born ca 1832 in Lubaczow, daughter of Ruben ROTTENBERG and Sara STERN, married Josef Vogel in Oleszyce in 1877. 

Some thoughts:

Many of these marriages seemed to have been at least second marriages,

 F.ex. Ciwie ROTTENBERG was 45 and her husband Josef VOGEL was 65 when they married in 1877.

Juda STEINBRUCH was 39 and his wife was 38 when they married in 1903.

Mojzesz KNOPF was 54 and his wife Sara DAMPF was 44 when they married in 1903.

Chane FEINERT was 53 and her husband Abraham Leib LANGENTHAL was 53 when they married in 1903.

Jente STEIN was 43 and Jakob GELBER was 48 when they married in 1914.

It is possible that the marriages were registered in both Oleszyce and in Lubaczow.

Jakub STEINBRUCH born around 1827. Beila STEINBRUCH born around 1831.

 Some of the oldest  persons with the STEINBRUCH family name:

A person named Jakub STEINBRUCH died in 1922, 95 years old. So he was born around 1827. He was from Lukawiec.

Interestingly enough, his parents are noted in the death register as Abraham and Sara STEINBRUCH. That must mean that Jakub's parents were born around 1800.

A woman from Ostrowiec, Beila STEINBRUCH, died in 1918 at the age of 87. That means that she was born around 1831. She had been married to Mendel STEINBRUCH.

Fred MAJER was born in Lubaczow in 1922 and died in the States in 2009

Sometimes a simple Google search  for "Lubaczow" will give me another name of a person from that town.

This time it as a obituary from 2009.

Fred MAYER, born in 1922 in Lubaczow, had died, and from the text you understood that Fred MAYER was a Holocaust survivor, with many camps listed. He was liberated in Buchenwald.

His parents were listed as the late  Herschel MAYER and Esther SCHWARTZ MAYER.

It was likely, in my opinion, that the family name originally had been MAJER, and that Fred was the KINNUI, not the Shem kodesh.

From the death register and this website, I found that the spelling of the family name must have been MAJER, and Fred's father Zvi Hersch MAJER had died in 1930.

https://jewishcemeterylubaczow2015.blogspot.com/2015/03/row-4-grave-12-hersz-majer.html

Hersch Zvi's father was Efroim Efraim MAJER. Could Fred have been named after his paternal grandfather?

From the birth register of Lubaczow, we found that Hersch, written Hersz, born 1888,  and his wife Ester had at least these four children:

Rachel born 1916 

Eidla born 1917

Golda born 1920

Efroim born 1922

So from this we can verify that Fred had the biblical name of Efraim Efroim after his paternal grandfather.

Fred was only around eight years old when his father died, and his oldest sister only 14.

What happened to his mother Ester MAJER?

From a Page of Testimony submitted by Ester's daughter, Fred's sister, we learn that Ester had been murdered in the Holocaust.

Isidor SCHNEIDER born May 27th 1888 in Lubaczow

My Heritage published, as free information, a list of Jews  who tried to emigrate  from Wien, Austria in 1938/1939, with scanned cards. This list  also include persons who were born in Lubaczow.

One was Isidor SCHNEIDER born May 27th 1888 in Lubaczow. 

But who were his parents?

Two men with the SCHNEIDER name have been located at the Lubaczow cemetery.

Fischel SCHNEIDER who died in 1915, was a Levite, born around 1855.

Chaim Samuel SCHNEIDER  who died in 1924, was not a Levite, born around 1858. From this we understand that these are two different families - one Levite, one Israel.

Could one of these two men have been the father of Isidor SCHNEIDER?

Isidor had moved to Austria in 1910, when he was around 22 years old.

In 1938/1939 , at the age of  50, his professions are listed as "Religionslehrer, Kantor , Privatlehrer"(Teacher of religion, cantor and private tutor/teacher).

His knowledge of languages is impressive - German, Hebrew, English, Polish, Ruthenian (Ukrainian) Latin and some Russian.

Isidor was married to Itta nee MONHEIT and the couple had two children:

Theodor SCHNEIDER born in 1919 in Wien, Austria

Lola SCHNEIDER born in 1924 in Wien, Austria

The first application was made in May 1938 and at that time the countries the family wanted to emigrate listed: England, France, USA, Canada, Palestine.

On another application from February 27th 1939 he wrote that he intends to go to Hungary.

On the third document from July 21th 1940, the new Nazi  law of adding Israel to male Jewish names and Sara to female Jewish names, is in force. The letter is addressed to Isidor Israel SCHNEIDER.

Could I find the names of Isidor SCHNEIDER's parents?

On Geni.com I found a profile for a Mr. SCHNEIDER born May 27th 1888 in Lubaczow. 

Here his father was listed as Chaim Samuel SCHNEIDER and his mother was Laja Hudes SCHNEIDER nee ZIEGELHEIM.

His wife was listed as Ida Itta SCHNEIDER nee MONHEIT, and their children were Theodore Teddy SCHNEIDER and Lola SPRINZELES nee SCHNEIDER.

With this information I returned to this website and found the grave of Chaim Samuel SCHNEIDER.

https://jewishcemeterylubaczow2015.blogspot.com/2015/03/row-7-grave-2-chaim-samuel-schneider.html

Surname	SCHNEIDER
Given name	Chaim Samuel
Date of death on gravestone	Evening of the month of Kislev 5685	ערב ראש חודש כסלו תרפ"ה
Date of death	Nov 25th 1924 ( Death register)
Hebrew name	Shmuel	שמואל
Father’s name	Moshe Yitzchak z”l Moses Izak SCHNEIDER	משה יצחק ז"ל
Kohen/Levi
Decoration	Bookcase	ארון ספרים
Notes	Group Two: Death Register 66 years old. Born ca 1858. Son of Moses Izak and Rachla SCHNEIDER. Recheck stone to look for the name "Chaim"  before  the name "Shmuel" חיים שמואל.

This means that Isidor's father was around 30 years old when Isidor was born and that he died two years after Isidor had moved to Austria.

I have not located the grave of Isidor's mother Laja (Lea) Hudes nee ZIEGELHEIM.

Last, Isidor is a KINNUI, not a Shem Kodesh. His Shem Kodesh was Isaak Yitzchak.

Additional info in records from Oleszyce

In a recent search for FALIK relatives from Cewkow near Oleszyce, I have used Gesher Galicia's search engine for Record Inventories and used the scanned images of old vital records located in different Polish archives.

Cewkow is listed in the Oleszyce records. 

As you may know, there are very few vital records from Lubaczow that have survived.

For Oleszyce it is a completely different situation. At the Przemysl State Archives there are vital records going back to 1814!

When I looked at these records,  I now and then saw that some of those listed, had been born in Lubaczow.

So now  I hope to add these names to this website, and see if their names connect to those already here on the website.

As an example, Ester STEINBRUCH nee KATZ is buried at Row 1, Grave 27. She was born around 1850 and died in 1929. Around 1875 she gave birth to a son named Chajm/Chaim Salomon STEINBRUCH.

This son married Male Bleiberg, 24 years old , in Oleszyce around 1900.

Was there a man named Szama Abraham (WEINRATH?) who died before 1925?

This is just a theory:

As you may have seen from my last post, I have been wondering if Samuel

WEINRATH originally came from Lubaczow. There was another WEINRATH family

in Lubaczow but could they have been distant relatives. After the Holocaust that

family often used a different spelling of the family name.

Today, looking through the birth registers for Lubaczow, I found some information

that made me wonder if Samuel WEINRATH had a sister named Biene WEINRATH.

In his first marriage to Rozalia Reisel, Samuel had no sons, so he could not honor

 any of his deceased male ancestors by passing on their given name.

In his second marriage to Chaja Tauba , he named his first son Szama Abraham

WEINRATH. Szama Abraham was born in 1926.

The year before, in 1925, another Szama Abraham was born in Lubaczow to

Boruch KRAUTSZTENGIEL (KRAUTSTENGEL? KRAUTSTÄNGEL?) and Biene

WEINRATH. 

Could it be that Samuel and Biene were brother and sister, and that their

deceased father or deceased grandfather was Szama Abraham (WEINRATH?) 

and that he had died before 1925?

Boruch and Biene had a daughter in 1927, a daughter they named Malka Reisel.

Then Boruch and Biene may have left Lubaczow as I see no other traces of

this family  there.

The KRAUTSTENGIEL  family name is very rare, but from birth index books in the

Przemysl ID project of Gesher Galicia, this name can be found in Sanok.

Back then, you may have gone from Lubaczow to Sanok by taking the train to

Jaroslaw, then to Rzeszow and then south to Sanok.

Does  this theory have some logic?

Samuel Weinrath and his family

Today I would like to remember Samuel WEINRATH and his family.

Who were his parents? His grandparents?

When was Samuel born? Around 1885- 1890?

Was he originally from Lubaczow? Perhaps not.

We know that he met Rozalia Reisel  GOTTLIEB  and they got married,

but probably not in Lubaczow.

Rozalia was born around 1891 in Rawa Ruska to Pinchas and Alta GOTTLIEB.

In 1919, when Rozalia was around 28 years old, she gave birth to their daughter,

Necha Cyrla, nicknamed "Nelka" or "Nella", in Rawa Ruska.

In 1926 Rozalia died, only 35 years old. She was buried in Lubaczow where you

still can see her gravestone. 

Samuel was left with their daughter, only six or seven, so he did what most

widower would do at that time, he quickly remarried.

His second wife was Chaja Tauba FELD r. LAUB. Where did she come from?

Where did they marry? We don't know, so far.

Chaja Tauba and Samuel WEINRATH settled in Lubaczow. Their five children

were born in Lubaczow:

Szama Abraham born in 1926. He must have been born towards the end of 1926,                                               as his father's first wife had died  in of March 1926.

Basia Jachet born in 1929

Szajndel Rysza born in 1931

Szymon Jozef born 1934

Rifka Ita born in 1936.

During these years Samuel's oldest daughter from his first marriage, Necha  Nella

Nelka, lived in what must have been quite  a busy and crowded home, till she

moved to Jaworow to go to the gymnasium. The gymnasium in Poland at that

time, as far as I  understand, is middle school and high school. Later Necha

married Jozef HILFERDING and she moved to Lwow.

Samuel and Chaja Taube and their five young children lived back in Lubaczow.

In September 1939 when the German Army invaded Poland these children

were aged four to ten.

After about a month the German Army left, and then the occupation by the USSR

started. 

How did Samuel and Chaja Taube manage everyday life in Lubaczow with five

children, under the Soviet rule?

In the summer of 1941 the German army was back in Lubaczow, and as we now

know, the situation of the Jews detoriated till the last Jews were murdered in

January 1943.

How long did Samuel, his wife and their five children stay alive in that situation?

We don't know.

So when you visit the Jewish cemetery in Lubaczow and find Rozalia Reisel

WEINRATH's gravestone from 1926, please remember those family members who

never got a gravestone because they were murdered in the Holocaust:

Samuel WEINRATH

Chaja Taube WEINRATH nee FELD r. LAUB

Necha Nella HILFERDING nee WEINRATH

Jozef HILFERDING

Szama Abraham WEINRATH

Basia Jachet WEINRATH

Szajndel Rysia WEINRATH

Szymon Jozef WEINRATH

Rifka Ita WEINRATH
