Galicia Genealogy Inquiries

From: Christine Babick <>

Inquiry:
My maternal grandmother, Anna Makar, came from Galicia in Austria-Hungary, b. 1891. I never knew what oblast, but I think it may be this one because someone else found Makars there. However, Anna left many family members behind in a village, not a city; perhaps it was outside the capital. Her mother's name was Sophie. My mother often spoke of her heritage, about the Tartars and Turks invading long ago and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Anna Makar had an aunt in Lowell, Massachusetts. I would be glad to exchange information with anyone seeing any connection to their family stories.

Subject: ZAICHOVSKI/ZAICHOVSKY/CEJKOVSKY
I am seeking information about the ZAICHOVSKI family of Wojaszowka, Galicia (near Rzeszów and Przemýsl). The earliest ancestor I am aware of is Josef Zaichovski. His son, Kasimir, moved to Vlkos Moravia and adopted the name Cejkovsky. Anyone having experience in getting records from this region, I would appreciate any advice. I have written all the archdiocese (in Polish) and they say they have no records.

Hello! I visited your wonderful site because my father was from Lvov. He left there as a soldier in the 2nd WW and eventually settled in Scotland. Unfortunately, due to illness and then his death in 1963, he never saw his Polish family again. I do not know if he (we) have any surviving family there. His name was Zdzislaw Tadek Stelmaszczuk. If anyone knows of him or any relatives I would love to hear from you. I can be contacted at d.henderson$$$dundee.ac.uk Thanks. Denise Henderson

Subject: LEOPOLI
I am writing these few lines for congratulating you for the nice site about your native town and to suggest you a little improvment to it: another name of your native town to be listed! Indeed the Italian name is missing :-)
Lvov was always known here in Italy as "LEOPOLI": you mentioned some historical relations of Lvov with Italians (and with Creeks???? Greeks, I suppose) settling and living there so may be you can add also this version on the names list :-) :-) Previously I read of Leopoli only from my modern history classes (because of the bloody battles fought in that spot of old Europe).

Subject: Jewish Klimchuk's
Hello, my name is Richard Toviah. I'm trying to get a hold of an Arkady Klimchuk. The reason is to learn more about him and to find out if we are related? I come from a line of Klimchuk's from my mother's side. I am originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. There were a large amount of Klimchuk's that left the Ukraine ending up in the US and Canada in the early 1900's. I've always wondered if that side were Jewish? The reason why I don't know is because I never knew or met anyone of them except my grandmother. She passed on when I was very young. If you know anything please contact me at richard.toviah$$$3web.net Thank you very much.

Hi my name is Rosemary. I am having a bit of a problem, I know I was sent to Great Ormond Street Hospital when I was very sick at the age of 1+. Now I do not have a birth certificate and I wondered is there a way I can check for my name. Now my sur-name has been changed due to the fact that my parents are now separated, but where can I go to look through archives and stuff to find myself as no one wants to tell me where I really came from. I'm beginning to wonder if I was adopted. Not that it would stop me loving my dear mum, but can you recommend a course of action. Please e-mail me with suggestions at: rosepeaks$$$yahoo.com.

My parents, Zygmund Glattstein and Leona Seligman Glattstein came from Lvov and left in 1945. They were among the very few survivors of the Janowska Camp and the Ghetto Lvov. My brother, Georg, and sister, Felicia, did not survive and were taken away from my parents on August 13, 1942 in a massive Aktion that lasted many days. Before the war, my father had a store at 20 Sykstuska and they lived at 8 Sykstuska. My grandmother, Nesze Seligman, lived at 23 Sykstuska. My parents survived because they were hidden by a good woman who kept them in her apartment for 18 months.

my name is Alan A. Fleischer. I am doing family research. My father Benjamin was the youngest of ten siblings. He came to the U.S. in 1884 via Hamburg from a small shtetl near Lvov. I have recently learned that the town or shtetl was called Zezmer. This name could of course be an Americanized version of the Russian &/or Polish &/or Ukrainian name for that place. DOES ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU. Alan A. Fleischer msfleis$$$ibm.net
My father was born in Zezmer in 1911, which is a shtetl near Riga and Kowno. Today, this town is called Ziezmariai. He left Lituania as a child and emigrated with his family to Belgium. The family was called Patz or Patzas in Lituania, later on it changed into Patcas.
You may find some interesting information under http://www.jewishgen.org/Communities/ (synonyms of Zezmer, map and even pictures of a synagogue). If you can find additional data about our common origin, please let me know. Best regards, Michel Patcas
