Dear Kremenets
district friends,
As the end of the secular year approaches, Ron, Sheree, and I would like to
thank those of you who have provided funding and services to support the
work of the Kremenets Shtetl CO-OP/Kremenets District Research Group. This
year, we've completed translation and/or indexing of these records:
- Russian Revision Lists
(censuses, 1817-1850): 16,657 Kremenets-district households (76,462
people) in the towns of Annopol, Belozirka, Berezhets, Goshcha, Katerburg, Kilikiev, Kremenets, Kunev,
Lakhovtsy, Lanovtsy,
Mizhirich, Oleksinets,
Ostrog, Pochayev, Podberezhets, Radzivilov,
Rokhmanov, Shumsk,
Vishnevets, Vyshgorodok,
and Yampol; the complete translation of
more than 50,000 entries from 1816 to 1834 will soon be available
at JRI-Poland.
- Shumsk Births, 1897, 1902, 1905, 1908-1913, 1916-1917,
1920-1936
- Pochayev Births, 1891-1936
- Shumsk Marriages, 1883-1891, 1923-1926, 1935
- Lanovtsy Marriages, 1880-1900, 1917, 1920-1937

Business Owners, 1934-1935 and 1936
- Kremenets Illegal Artisans,

- Sefer Vishnivits (yizkor book of
Vishnevets, Ukraine)
Personal names and
their associated town names from all of these updates are searchable via
the Kremenets Concordance Database
Index. The Concordance now includes more than 375,000 entries
extracted from various documents and other resources relating to Jews of
Kremenets District towns. Of the 1,224 towns cited, the most commonly
mentioned are Kremenets, Vishnevets, Radzivilov
Shumsk, Katerburg, Yampol, Ostrog, Vyshgorodok, Lanovtsy, Belozirka, Oleksinets, Pochayev, Berezhtsy, and Rokhmanov.
Translations of all of these records are available on our Contributors Site(available to those who
have donated money or services during the previous two years).
As I write this message, work is continuing on the following
projects, and many others are in the pipeline awaiting translation and
indexing:
- Kremenits, Vyshgorodek, un Potshayuv yizkor bukh (partially translated)
- Revizskiy Skazki (Revision Lists,
Census) and Supplements and other censuses and family lists, Kremenets
District towns, 1858-1879
