- To find the location of additional Jewish vital records from Dolina, consult the book by
Miriam Weiner, "Jewish Roots in Ukraine and Moldavia," 1999, YIVO & Miriam
Weiner Routes to Roots Foundation.
- Gesher Galicia - an organization of
people researching Jewish Ancestry in the former Austro-Hungarian region of Galicia.
- The Jewish
Genealogical Society, Inc. (New York) website at http://www.jgsny.org
has several resources of value to Dolina researchers:
- A listing of 1487 organizations are listed in The Jewish Landsmanschaften of New York
prepared by the Yiddish Writers' Guild of the Federal Writers' Project, Works Projects
Administration, published by the I.L. Peretz Yiddish Writers' Group in 1938. This
represents less than half of all landsmanschaften known to exist in New York. Not all of
these societies have cemetery plots. Use Edit/Find on your web browser to search for
"Doli" to find various spelling variations of the town name.
- More than 10,000 Jewish burial plots in
the Greater New York City area owned by landsmanshaftn (home-town associations),
synagogues, family circles, fraternal organizations and labor unions. Many of these are
associated with Stanislawow. It involves data from some 100 cemeteries. The search
engine allows you to type in a town name based on its current spelling (i.e., try typing
in "Doli"). It displays the name of the plot (e.g., Independent Doliner
Benevolent Society), Cemetery name (New Montefiore), and the exact location of the plot
within the cemetery (Section 4, Block 16), and society type (landsmanshaft). At another
JGSNY site there is a list of New York
metropolitan area cemeteries so that you can travel to NYC and search for your
ancestors' tombstones.
