Dear Eilat,
As it was advertised, the Dolhinov annual Memorial Meeting "Askara" took place
in Tel-Aviv on the 17.06.08. More than 150 people attended this year special
event.
A documentary film devoted to Nikolay Kiselov was shown. Nikolay Kiselov was
the partisan commander who led us, the Dolhinov Ghetto survivors, over the
occupied territory and eventual crossing the frontier of the German-Russian
lines in November 1942. It was a long and very exousting, dangerous 2 month
march, and many people died in the German attacks on the way. The Memorial
meeting lasted over 3 hours. We had guests from abroad. It was a very moving,
and very successful event.

From: Barry Rubin <profbarryrubin@yahoo.com>

I have been doing extensive research into the history of
Dolhinov's Jews and especially into that of the , and Hefetz families.
In cooperation with Harold Rhode and Leon Rubin, who has done so much
for the Dolhinov community, we are setting up a Dolhinov Research
Project and invite you to participate and to share your information.
This includes the following efforts:
--A survey of documents on Dolhinov in Vilna, Vileika, and
Minsk with the aim of copying as many as possible.
--Recording the inscriptions of the 400 gravestones in the
Jewish cemetery.
--Creating an email list of Dolhinov descendants to exchange
information. Please send me your email if you would like to be
included..
--Trying to build a Rubin and Grossbein family trees which will
obviously include a lot of other people as well.
--DNA testing of Rubin family members.
I hope that we can report to you on progress and to get your help.
Let me start with the DNA testing which is still going on.
Evidence from a few tests seems to indicate the following:
1. All Dolhinov Rubins come from a single family, taking that
name in the early 1700s.
2. The original location of the family was in eastern Anatolia
which coincides with the origins of Abraham's tribe in Ur.
We will know more as additional people are tested and more detailed
tests are done.

Please feel free to write me at profbarryrubin@yahoo.com.

I came across your wonderful site while doing a google search for my ancestors.
My grandmother, Zipora Smorgonski was from Dolhinov as were her sisters Hanna
and Pesia and her half brother Shlomo (Shamgar). From what I can figure out the
rest of the family died in the Dolhinov ghetto*. I pieced most of it together
from the Yizkor Books, Yad Vashem site and family stories.

While looking through your site I think I spotted my grandmother in the two
'Hachalutz' pictures. I know she was a member of 'Hachalutz' and later went to
Kibbutz Lida and then to Israel.

Any other information would be terrific.

Thanks for the great site!

Subject: Comment

Landsman,

Dee Axelrod, here. My grandfather, Benjamin Axelrod and his brother, Samuel,

left Dolhinov in 1914. They settled in Salem, MA.

I teach Hebrew School. We're currently on the Holocaust. That makes me think
about personal history. Once again, I thought of Dolhinov, feeling sad, as I

have so many times, that I couldn't go back and see the place my ancestors came
from. Ii can't tell you how wonderful it is to find this site.

Thank you so very much.

#gro-12:

GROSBEIN FAMILIES IN DOLHINOV 1850 A SNAPSHOT

      There were by 1850, only 16 Grosbeins living in Dolhinov (including spouses) from four Grosbein family groups.

 1:      The line of Yehuda: SHMUEL GROSBEIN’S HOUSE, November 6, 1850

Shmuel ben Yehuda (1789-1835) married Sara (Sora) (1793). His father was Yehuda ben ? Grosbein. Shmuel was out of town in 1833 and back in 1834. They had three children Berko (1821-after 1858), Sosia (1824) not in Dolhinov in 1850, and Elia, ( late 1834-after1850. Berko married Basia bat Ansel (1825-after 1850). They had a son Shmuel (named after his grandfather) (1841-still living in 1858). In 1850, Berko, Basia, Shmuel, and Elia are living together in the same house. [1850 revision: 519-523]

2.      line of Yitzhak: In 1850, Shmuel & Yehuda, brothers, living in Shmuel’s house

Yitzhak ben _____ (1730 or before-?) who had brothers named Avigdor (Ovsei) and Eliezer (Leizer)? And Leizer might have had a son Mikhel.

                 Son 1?:  Kadus-David ben Yitzhak (Itska) (1766-1812). No clear descendants.

               Son 2:Shmuel-Leib ben Yitzhak (1781-1846). Married Menka (1782-before 1834?). Remarried Mriase (1803-before 1850).Out of town for a while around 1835. Their son was David ben Shmuel (1800-1847) who married Kreina (1800-before 1850). They had a daughter Braina (1821) and a son Berko (1828-after 1858) who married Beila bat Rafal (1828-after 1850). David took over Shmuel’s house’s house when his father died. Braina is not in Dolhinov in 1850. Mikhel ben Eliezer (1808-1842) lived in the same house, before or with them. [see 1850, 368-372].

              Son 3: Yehuda ben Yitzhak (1782-1841) married Bela (1789-before 1850). Out of Dolhinov between 1811 and 1815. They had a son Shaul (Shevel) (1817-1835) who married Sara (1816). Yehuda and Bela also had twins, Esther and Shoshie, born in 1830. Neither is in Dolhinov in 1850 (See 1850 revision, 414-15)

             Shmuel and Yehuda are somehow related to Mikhel ben Leizer (1807-1842), absent in 1818 but back by 1827, and Leib ben Ovsei (1778-1831). Ovsei was probably brother of the Yitzhak father and Mikhel a son of one of Yitzhak’s brothers. No descendants listed in 1850.

   3.      The line of Menahem: SHLOMO GROSBEIN’S HOUSE, November 6, 1850

                 Menahem must have been born before 1742. Leib (Gershon Leib) ben Menahem (1761-1825) had two sonsYitzhak (1818-still living in 1858) and Shlomo (1816-still living in 1858). THIS SEEMS UNLIKELY menahem would be too old to have these sons.

?--Shmerel ben Leib (1781) arrived in Dolhinovaround December 1811, “with the beggars.” Whatever this means precisely it indicates he was not born in Dolhinov. He has no descendents in later records.

?--Another possible son would be Yisrael ben Gershon (1791-1845), left Dolhinov before 1811 but was back by that year. He married Hava (1790-before 1834). Their daughters Hanna (Khasha?) (1808) (not living in Dolhinov in 1850) and Sara (1818) not living in Dolhinov in 1850, and their sons Girshon (1804-1846) and Yakov (1818-still alive in 1858) married to Yenta bat Abram (1820) [1850 Revision: 851-854]

--Shlomo (1816-after 1858) married Shulka bat Shlomo (Shlioma) (1820-after 1850) and had at least one child, Haya (1847-after 1850).

--Yitzhak (1818-still living in 1858) married Feiga bat Yakov (Iankel) (1820-after 1850) and they lived in his brother’s household. Yitzhak had at least two children by 1850: Chaya (1844-after 1850), Khana (1841-after 1850.) These seven people lived together in the largest Grosbein household in Dolhinov. [1850 Revision: 527-533].  

                       In 1857, Yitzhak had a son Pinkus Leib Grosbein who was my great-grandfather. Itzko Grosbein died prior to 1884. Pinchus Leib married, probably in 1878 or 1879, Simka (Sima) Mendel (born 1861) daughter of Boruch Mendel. They had a son Hershel born in 1880. In 1881 they moved from Dolginov to the village of Rechki of Vileisky uyezd. They obtained a permit to do so from the chief policeman of the uyezd on May 6, 1881. His second son, Itzko (Yitzhak, named after his father) was born in 1884 and Sima died in childbirth aged only 23. He then, at age 27, moved back to Dolginov with his two sons, no doubt wanting both the company of his family and help in raising the two boys. He received his permit to do so on February 1, 1885.

Back in Dolginov he quickly married Lea Rivka, who was probably very young. No doubt, a widow with two little children needed a wife fast. By 1889 they were living in a wooden one-story house with five people. These were probably Hershel, Yitzhak—sons of his first marriage-- wife Lea Rivka and Shmuel. (1886-1942). And then they had three other children—Sarah (1887-1962 or 1963?), Chaya (1892-1970), and Rahel (1894-1942). Chaya could have been named after her aunt.

NO MEMBERS IN DOLHINOV IN 1850

           The line of Haim LEFT DOLHINOV? Haim would have been born prior to 1766

           (Beines-Itsko) Yitzhak ben Haim 1784. In 1816 he was married to Mariasha (1781) and they had a daughter Khasha (1809). Mariasha seems to have died and he married Liba (1799) and with her probably had Moishe (1821), Yitzhak (1823), and Rivka 1827. The family is absent from 1846. Ovsei ben Yitzhak (1817), he left in 1846, may have been a son of Yitzhak ben Haim but he is not listed as such and lived with the Faibish ben Shlomo family (see below).

The line of Shlomo:

Shlomo ben ? Grosbein was born prior to 1772

Son : Faibish ben Shlomo (Shlioma) (1791-1840). Could be brother of Shulka ben Shlioma (assuming she was a Grosbein). Married to Basia (1792-before 1850).  They were out of Dolhinov before 1818. They had two sons, Shlomo (1828) who left in 1845 and Zalman (1824) who left in 1846.  He may have had more children. Ovsei ben Yitzhak (1817) lived with this family until he left in 1846. Was he a son of Yitzhak ben-Haim? [see 1850, 46-49]

Leib Grosbein (on or before 1798-before 1850) had at least two sons: Isaac (born 1818) and Shlomo (born 1816). Issac may have been a widower in or after 1844 and lived in his brother’s household. Isaac had at least three children by his first marriage: Chaya (born 1844), Khana (born 1841) and Ovsei (born 1832). For some reason, Ovsei left Dolhinov in 1846. Shlomo (born 1816) married Shulka (born 1820) and had at least one child, Chaya (born 1847).

Grossbein families at the time of the Shoah

1. Pinchas Leib Grosbein descendents

            Two children: Chaya and Sarah emigrated to the United States in 1908.

Shmuel (1886-1942) married Rahel Lea Markman (1892-1942) and owned a market stall. They had four children. The whole family was killed in the Shoah. The children were Leah Rivka (!924-1942)(named after his mother) Pinkas Leib (1928-1942) (named after his father);Ethel (?-1942), and Moshe (1922-1942) (named after Rahel’s parents).

Rahel (1892-1942) married Yirimayahu Dimenshtein (1890-1942) They had three children: Mendel (who died young in 1923), Moshe (1922-1942), and Teibel (Tova) (born 1924), who escaped into the forest, was sent to Siberia, returned to Dolghinov after the war, and emigrated to Israel in 1957. Rahel, Yirimayahu, and Moshe were killed in 1942.  Tova married Shmuel Alperovitz from Dolghinov, who was together with her on the forest march, and they had two daughters who live in Israel, Malka and Raya who each had one son and one daughter.

Hershel Grosbein: 1880-?

Yitzhak Grosbein:  1884-?

Check Zalman brother in law

Chaim Grosbein (b before 1876-d prior to 1928) had a son Zalman Shlomo Grosbein (1894-1942) who married Sonya (Sheyna, daughter of Moshe and Bela Katzovitz) 1905-1942. He was a wagon wheel maker.

Lester Slonin's family originated in Dolhinov and Kurenets

Louis M. Howard of Boise, Idaho died at age 95 on July 10, 2010. Louis was born in Jersey City, New Jersey on May 28, 1915, the eldest child of Frank Horowitz of Dolginovo, Belarus and Beatrice Tobias of Novyy Swerzhen, Belarus. Louis, a graduate of DeWitt Clinton High School, lived his first forty years in New York City. An enthusiastic and adventurous world traveler, Louis lived in Mexico City in 1959-1960. As Louis recounted to his family, he thought it best not to marry, "why make one woman miserable, when I can make many women very happy?" Louis served in the US Army from 1942-1948 as a member of the Signal Corps, much of the time assigned to duty on a tug boat in New York Harbor. He was proud of his service as a civilian employee of the Air Force working in aircraft parts acquisition from 1963 to 1976. In the course of his work he lived in Rome, NY and then in Ogden, Utah. Instead of retiring, Lou then began a new career as a commercial real estate appraiser in Ogden. Always generous with his time, Louis served 15 years on the Ogden City Planning Commission and was President for seven years of Brith Sholom Synagogue in Ogden. Louis, along with his father Frank Horowitz, who moved to Ogden to live with Louis after Louis' mother died, were the spirit that kept the small Brith Sholom in existence, always welcoming new members. Making new friends in each community where he lived, Louis had an avid appreciation of art, always becoming a member of the local art museums. He loved music and was also an enthusiastic ballroom dancer who delighted in taking his friends to his favorite dance spots. For his 90th birthday, friends and family gathered to celebrate and to enjoy music by a band carefully selected by Louis. His 95th birthday was quieter, but he was on his feet dancing then as well. Louis was a photographer from an early age and while stationed in Hawaii with the US Army, won a National Geographic prize for his photographic portrait of an elderly Hawaiian man. Louis will be missed by his family, friends and his many dance partners. He is survived by his five nieces and their families, Susan Goldsmith and husband, Joseph Waxman of Piedmont, CA, Judy Lynn of Denver, CO, Patti Roberts and husband, Mike of Castle Rock, CO, Deirdre Arnowitz and husband, Stuart of Richmond, VA and Vicki Kelemen and husband, Dave of Mission Santa Fe, CA. His great-nieces and nephews are Jonah Waxman and Sandra Reid, Rosalie Waxman, Josh and Kasey Timon, Mckenzie and Cullen Lyle, Paul and Haley Longstreath, Tom Longstreath, and Rebecca and Jennifer Arnowitz. His great-great-nieces and nephews are Grayson and Finley Timon, Sesto and Maya Lyle, and Samantha Longstreath. Lou was predeceased by his beloved brother, Marvin Horowitz, who died in 1944 and is survived by a sister, R. Diane Goldsmith of Walnut Creek, CA. Lou's surviving cousins include Leo Tobias of New York and Rosalie Shadovitz of CA. He is also survived by his aunt, Ethel Paltrowitz of New Jersey. Lou's family appreciates the care he received from his longtime physician, Dr. David Hindson of the Boise VA Hospital and the more recent care provided by Willow Park and Boise Rehabilitation. Louis will be buried at Aultorest Cemetery in Ogden, Utah where graveside services will be held on Monday, July 12, 2010. Contributions to a charity of your choice are deeply appreciated.
