1 | 1 NETER Metya Rivyen -Gersh townsman 1841 1834 1851 10 daughter of Rivyen-Gersh Zelmanov Sura female

Analysis: This is the first of seven households with members with variations on the surname Neter, Neyter, Neyte ( #1, #2, #4, #6, #18, #24, #93). This household has members with two spelling varations (Neter and Neyter) indicating the variations did not necessarily signify different family lines. It seems probable that the head of household here, Zelman Neyter, is the father of the young man named Shmul son of Zalman who is listed as a nephew in the KOPITNIK household (#18).

Here the 1850 revision indicates the head of household, Zelman son of Duvid (also called "Zelman Duvidov") passed away in 1838 at the age of 50. He would have been 62 in 1850. His widow, Sheva, age 46, is thus quite a bit younger. Also listed are two sons and a daughter. Motel, age 12, is present in the household as is a daughter, Rivka, age 8.

The older son, Rivin-Duvid went missing in 1839 (one year after his father died) when he was 16. He reappears in the 1851 supplement with his family. He is now 29, married to Sura, age 26 with a daughter Metya, age 10.

2 NEYTER Sura-Rukhlya Teviye townsman 1842 1834 1850 8 daughter of Teviya Geynikhov male

Analysis:This is the second of seven households with variations on the surname Neter, Neyter, Neyte ( #1, #2, #4, #6, #18, #24, #93). This household has members with the spelling Neyte and Neyter.

The head of household here, Tevja son of Geynikh (also called "Teviya Geynikh") passed away in 1842 at the age of 25. His brother, Srul-Ber, was recuited in 1837 at the age of 15.

A nephew, Yos, is still present in the household along with a daughter, Sura-Rukhlya, age 8. From this information, it looks like the 16 year old nephew is functioning as head of the household.

Analysis:There are two Sherman households ( #3, #125) and one Shirman household in the revision ( #21).

In the 1850 revision for this Sherman household, Borukh son of Khaim (also called "Borukh Khaimov") is missing as of 1849 at the age of 46. HIs wife Basya, age 47, was the only other person present. In the 1851 supplement, Khaim reappears, age 48. With him is his son Moshe-Aron, age 17 and another female whose age and relationship to Borukh is not indicated. The head of this household, Borukh son of Khaiam, is probably the son of the man named Khaim son of Borukh, listed as head of household #125.

4 | 3 NEYTER Rukhlya-Leya not indicated townsman 1828 1834 1851 23 wife of brother of Moshko Berkov female

Analysis: This is the third of seven households with variations on the surname Neter, Neyter, Neyte ( #1, #2, #4, #6, #18, #24, #93). The head of this household (#4), Mosko son of Berko, was probably a brother of Gershko son of Berko who is head of household #6.

The 1850 census indicates that the head of household, Moshko son of Berko (also called "Moshko Berkov") has been missing since 1849 at the age of 41. His brother, Volko, age 24, and wife, Golda, age 36 are present in the household.

Moshko reappears in the 1851 supplement. He is listed as age 41. Appearing with him are a son, Avrum-Yoina, age 12, a daughter, Ester, age 14 and a brother (i.e. sister) of Moshko named Rukhlya-Leya, age 23.

Analysis: This is the first of two Nudler households in the revision (household #5 and #123). The head of household, Moshko-Ber son of Wolf (also called "Moshko-Ber Volfov") is age 28. He is one of the younger men to be explicitly called head of household. His wife, Etya-Tsirlya, age 24 is present along with a son Motya-Ber, age 11. Also present is a cousin, Moishe Gersh, age 28, and his wife, Zhenya-Sura.

6 NEYTER Etya not indicated townsman 1824 1834 1850 26 wife of Leib Gershkov female

Analysis: This is the fourth of seven households with variations on the surname Neter, Neyter, Neyte ( #1, #2, #4, #6, #18, #24, #93). The head of this household (#6), Gershko son of Berko, was probably a brother of Moshko son of Berko who is head of household #4.

Gershko son of Berko (also called "Gershko Berkov") is 48. His wife Haya is present, age 26. They have a son, Leibko, age 20 and a daughter, Rokhlya, age 19. Leibko is also married to Etya, age 26 and they have two sons, Duvid, age 9 and Yos, 24.

A brother of Leib is also listed: Itsko son of Berko. He died in 1835 at the age of 29. It is not clear why he is called a brother of Leib since he was in all likelihood the brother of Leib's father, Gersh, who was also a son of Berko. Perhaps a mistake was made by the census taker.

7 | 4 TRINKER Alter-Leib Moshko-Meyer townsman 1839 1834 newborn 1851 12

Analysis: The head of the household, Itsko son of Wolf (also called "Itsko Volfov") died in 1849 at the age of 67, giving him one of the longest lifespans in town. His son, Moshko-Meyer, age 41 is now the senior male in the household. Itsko's other son, Shmil-Ber, was conscripted into the military in 1841 at the age of 20.

Moshko-Meyer is married to Gitlya, age 40. Their son, Alter-Leib, was not present in the 1850 census but is listed in the 1851 supplement. He is 12 years old.

- | 20 | 78 KREYMER Anshel Srul townsman 1824 1834 1851 27 male

Analysis: Leib Kreymer, the head of household, has been missing since 1845 at the age of 41. He could be the brother of Ovishiya Kremer in household #71 since both are sons of Yankel, though the surnames are spelled differently.

In this record, it appears that three of Leib's sons went missing the same year he did. However the names of the three sons appears suspiciously similar and one wonders whether the revision is recording inconsistent records for the same son (Yankel-Itsko, Yankel, and Itsko). The first son listed is Yankel-Itsko, missing in 1845 at the age of 21. The second son is Yankel, missing in 1845 at the age of 28, and the final son is Itsko, missing in 1845 at the age of 15.

There is another man with the name Kreymer who is picked up in the 1851 census. It is not clear if he belongs with this family since there is no family number for the 1850 census. In the 1851 census, he is listed in family #20 and there are no others in that list. There is a reference to a revision list 8, where he is listed as part of family #78 but no other records are available for that list at this itme.

Analysis: Head of household, Srul son of Pinkhas (also called "Srul Pinkhasov") died in 1838 at the age of 46. He was born in 1792 and would have been 58 had he lived to 1850. Three sons and their wives are in the household, Pinkhas, age 40, and his wife Tsipya, age 36, son Peysakh, age 36, and his wife Bluma, age 36 and daughter, Rivka, age 10, and son Moishe, age 30 and his wife, Freyda, age, 30.

Analysis: Between the revision of 1850 and 1851, when the supplement was done, this household changed dramatically. In 1850, only Sura, the wife of the head of household was present at age 46. Her husband Nuta-Moishe son of Zanvel (also called "Nuta-Moisha Zanvelev") was missing as of 1849 at the age of 45, and their son, Zanvel, was missing in the same year at the age of 31.

By 1851 when the supplement was done, both Nuta-Moishe and Zanvel are present with a larger household. Nuta-Moishe's wife Sura is no longer listed and he now has a different wife, Gitlya, age 20, and a daughter, Raitsa, age 4 from that marriage. They probably married 4 years before. Why Sura was left alone in the home in 1850 is intriguing. It woudl appear that Nuta-Moishe left or divorced Sura, his first wife, and had gone to live somewhere else with the family and then returned in 1851.

In 1851, Nuta-Moisha is now 47 and his son "Zainvel" is 22. Also listed for the first time is Nuta-Moisha's son, Avrum, age 12, and three daughters, Basya-Freyda, age 16, Myenya, age 12, and Beyla, age 8. None of them have a mother listed seeming to confirm that their mother was the Sura who is now missing from the household. A niece, Sura-Ita, is also present in the household, age 13.

It seems possible that a Gitelman family mentioned in the Mlynov-Mervits Memorial book is descended from this Gitelman line. A Moshe Gitelman who was called "Ruchel Feivesh's [son]" is remembered in the Memorial book (p. 127 original [117 English translation]), as a close friend of Shmuel Mandelkern and as one who procured bullets for the self-defense units that had been organized following WWI.

Analysis: The head of household, Gdal son of Khaim (also called "Gdal Khaimov") died in 1837 at the age of either 27 or 37, given the ambiguity in the age specified in 1834. Two sons are mentioned, Khaim-Moishe, born 1826, and Moshko, born in 1820, both of whom are involved in some farming community and not present in town.

13 AKMAN Shmul Yukel townsman 1822 1834 12 recruited 1836 1850 not indicated head of family male
13 AKMAN Gershko Yukel townsman 1826 1834 8 missing 1846 1850 not indicated brother Shmul Yukelev male

Analysis: This is the first of two Akman households (#13 and household #32) that probably are related and neither of which has members present in 1850.

In this household, the names are listed still in 1850 because two of them were present in the earlier 1834 census. The head of the family is Shmul Akman, son of Yukel (probably the man called Yoirikhim Mordkov in the other Akman household).

Shmul was was born in 1822 and was 12 years old in the earlier 1834 census. We don't have that census but at that point his father Yukel was probably head of household. Shmul was recruited in 1836 at the age of 14. His age in 1850 is not indicated because he has not returned. His brother Gershko, two years younger, went missing in 1846 at the age of 20.

It appears that a first cousin of these Akman's is the man who appears in the second Akman household (#32).

14 BONDER Haya-Sura Shapshel townsman 1835 1834 1850 15 daughter Shapshel Yankelev Riva female

Analysis: The Bonder household is a small family unit of a father, mother, son and daughter. The head of household Shapshel, son of Yankel, is 36 and was present in 1834. He is married to Riva, age 30, and has a son Joseph-Khaim, age 2 and a daughter Haya-Sura, age 15. The large age gap between the age of the son and daughter makes one wonder if Shapshel and Riva are indeed Riva's parents. If so, they became parents when they were 21 and 15 respectively. While that is possible biologically, the absence of other children in the interening years makes one wonder whether this is some other story here.

Analysis: The head of household, Gershko son of Leib (also called "Gershko Leibov") died in 1848 at the age of 40. No widow or children are present.

Gershko did leave behind a brother, Duvid-Yankel (also called "Duvid-Yankel Gershkov"), age 34 1/2 and his wife, Liba, age 34, and a son Khaim, who is listed as age 5 in 1850, but his age is given as 8, in the 1851 supplement.

Analysis: This is the first of three Wainer households ( #16, #96, #110) but there is no overt relationship between them.

Here Ruvin son of Yosyp (Yosef), age 37, is head of the household.A brother of his, Nusyn, went missing in 1848 at the age of about 35. (The date "when exactly is later than the previous census year so the data appears unreliable). Still in the household are Ruvin's son Yosyp, age 12, and a son of his brother, also called Yosyp, age 16.

Here Shmul Grinshpul born in 1825 is listed as son of Favel. There Lemel, born in 1788, is listed as a son of Faivish Grinshpun. The surnames are very close in spelling (one letter difference) and could be variations of each other.

18 | 7 NEYTER Tsirlya not indicated townsman 1833 1834 21 1851 18 wife of Shmul Zelmanov female

Analysis: This is the first of two Kopitnik households headed by brothers both sons of Urin Kopitnik: (#18, #20). Here Yankel son of Urin (also called "Yankel Urinov") is 51 and one of the oldest living heads of household in the revision. His wife, age 40, is 11 years younger, and a son, Yankel, died in 1848 at the age of 19.

There is also a nephew of Yankel in the household by the name of Shmuel Neyter son of Zalman. He is 22 in the 1850 census and in the 1851 supplement a wife, Tsirlya, age 18 is present. It seems likely that Shmul Neyter is the son of Zalman Neyter who is listed as head of household (#1). We can assume that his wife was a Neyter and probably a sister of Shmul's father: Zalman Neyter.

Analysis: Abrum son of Nusyn (also called "Abrum Nusynov"), age 58, is head of the family and was present in Mervits by the 1834 census. He was born in 1792, a year before Mervits became part of Russia. Present in the household with him is his wife, Rivka, age 50, and two sons, Aron-Yankel, age 25, and Yos, age 12.

Also present is a grandson (a son of his son Aron Yankel) by the name of Moishe Zelman, age 4. And there is a nephew of Abrum, named Gershko son of Khaim Zimerman, who probably is a son of Abrum's sister.

Analysis: This is the second of two Kopitnik households headed by brothers both sons of Urin Kopitnik ((#18), #20). Here Abrum son of Urin (also called "Abrum Urinov") is 46. A brother, Duvid-Leiba, who died in 1838 at the age of 30 is listed in the household. Present still is Abrum's wife, Hana, age 40 and the widow of his brother, Haya-Dvosya, age 25. No children are listed and it is unknown if they had children who moved or were childless.

21 | 8 SHAKHMAN Shlema-Leib Joseph townsman 1824 1824 1834 10 1850 27 male

Analysis:There are two Sherman households ( #3, #125) and one Shirman household in the revision ( #21). There is no obvious connection between this Shirman household and the two Sherman households.

In the 1850 revision, Joseph son of Leib (also called "Joseph Leibov") died in 1836 at the age of 40. Still present in the household is Josephs's wife, Hanah, age 52. Their son, Shlema Leib, was missing as of 1849 at the age of 25 but his wife, Rukhlya, age 25, is still in the household.

A man named Shlema-Leib Shakhman appears in the 1851 supplement (supplement household #21). His father is Joseph and one wonders whether this is the reappearance of the missing son called Shlema-Leib Shirman. The similarities in first names and names of the father suggest it is the same person. Why the surname is now Shakhman rather than Shirman is not clear.

Analysis: In the 1850 revision, Froim son of Khaim was listed as missing as of 1849, at the age of 43. In the 1851 supplement, he is present in town and is listed as 49 years old, suggesting he was born in 1802, not 1806.

24 NEYTER Urin Itsko townsman 1827 1834 7 (8 crossed out in pencil) 1850 23 grandson of Sender-Gersh Berkov male

Analysis: This is a household with three different surnames. The head of the household is Sender-Gersh son of Berko (also called "Sender Gersh Berkov). He died in 1838 at the age of 52. Still present in the household is a son of Sender-Gersh, named Ruvin, age 9. One of his grandsons, Shlema Shwartzbarg was recruited in 1843 at the age of 17. Another grandson, Urin Neyter, age 23, is present in the household. It is possible he is related to the Khaim-Itsko Neyter in household #93.

Also present is a nephew, Abram Lokrats, age 38, his wife Rivka, age 36. It seems possible that Abram "Lokrats" here (#24) is related to head of the "Lokrats" household (#97). Here we have Abram son of Shlema. There we have Zelman son of Abram, who has a son named Shlema. The similarity in first and last names suggests some relationship that is not clear.

25 GOLDBARG Leya not indicated townsman 1816 1834 1850 34 wife of Shlema-Gersh Shapsov female

Analysis: This is the first of two consecutive Goldbarg households (#25, #26) that appear to be related. The head of household in each is listed as a son of Moshko Goldbarg.

Here, Shapsa son of Moshko (also called "Shapsa Moshkov") is head of household and 52 years old. His wife Gitlya age 40 is listed as the mother of his three sons, though it seems likely she could be a second wife based on the age of the older one. The eldest Shlema-Gersh, went missing in 1846 at the age of 32. In 1850, he would have been 36 years old when Gitlya was 40. Two other sons are present in the household, Borukh, age 24 and Moishe-Moya, age 11. Moishe-moya is most likely Gitlya's mother and possibly Borukh. Also present in the household is the wife of Shlema-Gersh, the son who was missing in 1846.

[1] The translator spelled this individual's surname as Goldbard, not as Goldbarg the way the rest of the household is spelled. However, but in referring back to the Russian original, I see no difference in Russian with the following surnames, Goldbarg.

Analysis: This is the second of two consecutive Goldbarg households (#25, #26) that appear to be related. The head of household in each is listed as a son of Moshko Goldbarg.

Here, the head of household, Srul-Gersh (also called "Srul-Gersh Moshkov") has died in 1838 at the age 34. He was born in 1804 and was likely the brother of Shapsa Goldbarg, head of household #25, who was born in 1798. Srul-Gersh's son, "Khaim-Mordko" is also missing as of 1848 when he was 26.

27 VARTSEL Gershko Vigdor townsman 1834 1834 newborn 1850 16 grandson of Itsko-Yankev Leizar-Shayev male

Analysis: This household has suffered several losses between 1834 and 1850. The head of the household Leizar-Shaya died in 1836 at the age of 52 (assuming the crossed out age of 23 was incorrect). His older son, Itsko-Yankev, died in 1848 at the age of 37. His younger son, described here the brother of Itsko-Yankev, was recruited in 1836 at the age of 11, one of the youngest boys to be recruited in this revision. A grandson, Gershko son of Vigdor, age 16, is the only other member of the household present in 1850. It seems like he is a single male living by himself, at least according to this record.

There are also two Vertsel households (household #88, #137), but no obvious relationship between this household and those.

28 | 9 KUPERMAN Surka not indicated townsman 1847 1834 1851 4 sister of Vigdor-Srul Meyer-Itskov female

Analysis: This household is a single family with the surnames Kuperstein and Kuperman, all relatives. Part of the family was present in the 1850 revision and another part was added in the 1851 supplement.

The 1850 revision indicates the head of household, Shmil Gersh son of Yankel-Yos (also called Shmil-Gersh Yankel Yosev) died in 1846 at the age of 44. His wife, Basya-Leya, age 41 is still present with a daughter, Babya, age 6. A nephew Nison-Yos, also died in 1838 at the age of 14.

In the 1851 supplement, more of the family is present. A son of Meyer-Itsek is now listed as 1 year old. Also listed is his mother, Gitlya, age 20, sister Surka, age 4. They are listed as his mother and sister, rather than the wife and daughter of Meyer-Itsek, since he was listed in the 1850 revision and not here in the supplement.

29 SHTEPER Yankel Shlema townsman 1824 1834 10 missing 1845 1850 not indicated cousin of Lemel Faivishev female

Analysis: This is the first of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142). Lemel (#29) (1788-1850) appears to be brothers with Shevel (#41) and Mordko #64 and father of Fayvel (#142).

The head of household, Lemel son of Favish, died in 1850 at the age of 62. No wife is listed. One of his sons, Shakhna, died in 1842 at the age of 12. Still in the household are two other sons, Shaya, age 24, and Pinkhats-Gersh, age 8. A daughter, Babya, is also present, age 14. Shaya is married and his wife Enta, age 22 is also present. No children are listed.

A cousin of Lemel, Yankel Shteper, is also listed in household and is missing as of 1845 when he was 23. It seems plausible there is a relationship between Yankel here and Yankel Shteper son of Shlema-Gersh in household #124.

Analysis: Only two members listed in this household. The head of household, Meyer son of Abram (also called "Meyer Abramov") died in 1848 at the age of 64. His nephew, Pinhas-Joseph, age 10, is still present. It is unclear who the adults in the house are. We can assume his father, Moshko, was a brother of Meyer.

31 BERGER Leya not indicated townsman 1810 1834 1850 40 wife Kelman Gershkov female

Analysis: This is one of five Berger households in the census (household #31), (household #58), (household #61), (household #66), (household #115). This small household was present in 1834. The head of the family, Kelman son of Gershko (also called Kelman Gershkov) is 41 and was born in 1809. His wife, Leya, is 40 and born in 1810. Their son, Sender-Gersh, is 14. A brother of Kelman has gone missing in 1850 and would be 34 if he were present.

The name "Gershko" ties several of these families together and head of household in several of these may be brothers or cousins.

32 AKMAN Srul Yukel townsman 1849 not indicated recruited 1849 1850 not indicated nephew Yoirikhim Mordkov male

Analysis: This is the first of four Finkelstein households #32, #78, #79 #104. The first three are almost certainly related. There is also a relative by the name of Srul Akman in the household.

Yoirikhim son of Mordko (also called "Yoirikhim Mordkov"), age 42, is head of this household and was born in 1808. He is likely the younger brother of Shmaria-Moishe Finkelstein, head of household (#78), since both are sons of Morko and born in 1808 and 1802 respectively.

Yoirikhimh has a son, Yos-Beynish, age 12, in the household. In addition, his brother-in-law, Duvid son of Leiba, was part of the household but died in 1848 at the age of 61. The name Leiba is given as Duvid's father's name. It is unclear (in English) if this is a male name or perhaps the name of his wife, who is the sister of Yoirikhim. It is also unclear why Duvid has the same last name of Finkelstein if he is a brother-in-law, unless he is a cousin or adopted the family name. Duvid also had two sons who were part of the household, Khaim-Meylakh, who died in 1837 at the age of 24, and Moshko-Meylakh who went missing in 1849 at the age of 41.

Also present in the household is also a nephew of Yoirikim, Srul Akman, who was recruited in 1949 and whose age is unknown. Since his surname differs from Finkelstein, we can guess that Srul was a son of Yoirikim's sister. It seems possible that Srul Akman here is a cousin of the other Akman household (household #13).

33 | 10 FISHMAN Ester not indicated townsman 1829 1834 1851 22 wife of Volf-Ber Kelmanov female

Analysis: This is the first of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, household #53, household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). Only this one (#33) and the next (#65) have names in common suggesting a possible relationship.

The revision indicates the head of household, Yoikhim son of Benish (also called "Yoikhim Benishev"), died in 1839 at the age of 73. He is one of the oldest men at death listed in the census and was born in 1766 when the area was still part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

Still in the household is his nephew, Volf-Ber, age 26 who was son of Yoikhim's brother, Kelman. Volf-Ber's wife, Ester, age 22, appears in the 1851 supplement.

34 STEINSHNAD Alta Shlema townsman 1836 1834 1850 14 daughter Shlema Froim-Favishev Rasya female

Analysis: This is the first of six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92 #112), several of which appear related. See a summary of these relationships below. There are also four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92) but there is no evidence that Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families are related.

Here, the head of household Froim-Favish son of Urin (also called "Froim Favish Urinov") died in 1848 at the age of 66. His widow, Reizya, age 55, is still in the household with his son, Shlema, age 38, Shlema's wife, Rasya, age 38, a daughter, Alta, age 14 and a son Froim, age 5, who was probably named for his grandfather (though his birth year precedes the year of his grandfather's death).

The head of household here is probably the father of head of household #35 since he too is a son of Froim.

A Summary of Steinshnad household relationships

The following table summarizes the suspected relationships among the Steinshnad household based on the analysis following each household.
1850 Household # 1858 Household # Surname First Name Father's Name Status Birthyear Comment on relationship
#34 #33 Steinshnad Froim-Favish Urin head of household 1792 Father of head of #35 household (Yankel son of Froim-Faivish). Brother of head of household #49 (Shlema-Leib son of Urin).
#35 #34 Steinshnad Yankel Froim-Favish head of household 1813 Son of #34 head of household (Froim-Favish son of Urin).
#45 #44 Steinshnad Yorikhim-Anshel Yos head of household 1807 Perhaps namesake of ancestor who was also ancestor of Yos Steinshnad in household #35
#49 #48 Steinshnad Shlema-Leib Urin head of household 1793 Probably brother of head of household #92, both sons of Urin Steinshnad
#92 #90 Steinshnad Mikhel Yos head of household 1801 Probably the older brother of Yorikhim-Anshel son of Yos, head of household # 45. One can speculate that Yos, the father of these brothers, was himself a sibling of Urin, the father of households #35 and #49.
#112 #110 Steinshnad Mikhel-Joseph Abel head of household 1806 No explicit connection with other Shteinshnad households. One could guess that Mikhel-Joseph's father, Abel, was a brother of Urin and/or Yos.
Restating the above table in narrative form, one can speculate that the households were related genealogically as follows. Brothers (sons of Urin) headed household #34 and #49. One of these brothers, Froim-Favish, had a son Yankel who was head of household #35. Another pair of brothers (sons of Urin) headed household #49 and #92. Another household was headed by a son of Abel #112. We can speculate that the fathers of all these heads of households were themselves brothers, though we have no evidence that was in fact the case.

A poor Shteinsheid / Shteynshnayd family from Mervits is listed in the Mervits list of martyrs (Hebrew p. 444, English p. 422) and a story about a Menashe Shteinsheid is included in an essay called "Poor Lives" in the Memorial book (Hebrew p. 237, English p. 218). It is possible this family is descended from one of these ancestral households.

Analysis: This is the second of six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92 #112), several of which appear related. See a summary of the Steinshnad household relationships. There are also four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92) but there is no evidence that Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families are related.

The head of household, Yankel son of Froim (also called "Yankel Froimov") is probably the son of Froim-Favish listed as head of household #34. Yankel, here, is 37. His wife Pesya, age 30, their son Yos, age 15. Yankel's brother, Khaim, went missing in 1848 at the age of 27. Khaim's wife, Leya, age 29, is still part of the household.

36 ELMAN Tuiba not indicated townsman 1800 1834 1850 50 mother of Shmil Berkov female

Analysis: The head of the Elman household is a young man named Shmil son of Berko (also called Shmil Berkov). His mother, Tuiba, age 50, is still in the household and there is no information about when his father Berko passed away. Shmil's wife Mirlya, age 20, is present as well as a 13 year old son, Mikhel, and two daughters, Meyla, age 15, and Sura, age 6. It is not clear whether this family was already in Mervits by 1834: the status of "omitted" (rather than just a blank) for Shmil suggests perhaps they were already present but he was not enumerated.

Analysis: The head of household, Wolf son of Froim (also called "Wolf Froimov") died in 1838 at the age of 35. A son, Moishe-Leib, went missing in 1847 at the age of 17. Another brother, Zelik, age 43, is still present in the household along with a wife, Shendlya, age 38, two daughters, Leya, age 16, and Pesya, age 14, and a son, Zelik, age 5.

38 PERELMAN Leiba Yankel townsman 1825 1834 omitted 1850 25 nephew of Avrum Gershkov male

Analysis: This is the first of two Perelman households ( #38, #44). Avrum son of Gershko, the head of the household, died in 1838 at the age of 72. He is one of the longest living individuals in this revision. He was born in 1766. It seems very likely that this Avrum Perelman was the father of the man named Khaim Perelman who is head of household #44 and son of "Abram."

There is only one other member of this household, Avrum's nephew, Leiba, son of Yankel, age 25. We can assume that Leiba's father, Yankel, was a brother of Avrum who is here named as the head of household.

Analysis: This is the second of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142). Here, the head of household Itsko-Ber son of Yoina (also called Itsko-Ber Yoinov") died in 1949 at the age of 49. His brother Yos was recruited in 1834 at the age of 12. Still present in the household is Itsko-Ber's widow, Hantsa, age 46 and their daughter, Haya, age 19.

For unspecified reasons, the 1851 supplement includes Moishe Fidelman son of Shlema, age 25, as part of this household (#40). It is not clear if he is a nephew of the family head or has some other relationship.

Analysis: This is the third of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142). It seems likely that the head of household here, Shevel son of Faivish, born in 1793, is the brother of Lemel son of Faivish, who is head of household #29 and born 1788.

In this household, Shevel (also called "Shevel Faivishev") is 57 and married to Touba, age 40. One of their sons, Alter-Khaim, died in 1838 at the age of 12. Another son, Gershko-Ber (also called Berish), age 21, is still in the household, and married to Yenya-Rukhlya, age 20. They have a daughter Feiga, age 6.

42 STEINSHNADER Wolf Berko townsman 1824 1824 1834 10 1850 26 grandson of Yos Benishev male

Analysis: This is the first of four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92). There are also six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92, #112). There is no obvious relationship between Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families.

The head of household here, Yos son of Benish (also called "Yos Benishev"), died in 1838 at the age of 61. His grandson Wolf son of Berko, age 26, is the only other person person listed. We can assume that Wolf's father, Berko, was a son of Yos.

Analysis: Mendel son of Vigdor (also called "Mendel Vigdorov"), age 32, is head of the household and is married to Tsiya, age 30. They have a son, Yos, age 9, and a daughter Tsitya, age 6.

44 | 12 PERELMAN Itsko Khaim townsman 1835 1834 newborn 1851 16 male

Analysis: This is the second of two Perelman households ( #38, #44). The head of household is Khaim son of Abram (also called "Khaim Abramov"), age 51. It is very likely he is the son of "Avrum Perelman" listed in household #38 who passed away in 1838 and was born in 1766. Listed in the 1850 revision, is Khaim's wife, Ester-Haya, age 45, his won Morko, age 28, and two daughter, Leya, age 24, and Hana, age 22. A son Yudko-Itsko is listed as as recruited in 1850 at the age of 20. It is also interesting to note that a son and two daughters all in their 20s are not married in this household.

In the 1851 supplement, it is apparently the same son Itsko who reappears. Now he is listed as 16 and born in 1835 (instead of 1830).

45 STEINSHNAD Maria Yorikhim-Anshel townsman 1843 1834 1850 7 daughter of Yorikhim-Anshel Yosev Rivka female

Analysis:This is the third of six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92 #112), several of which appear related. See a summary of the Steinshnad household relationships. There are also four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92) but there is no evidence that Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families are related.

The head of the household here, Yorikhim-Anshel son of Yos, is 43. There is a younger man named Yos Steinshnad in household #35 and perhaps he was named after the Yos mentioned here in the previous generation. In this household with Yorikhim-Anshel is his wife Rivka, age 40 and their son Mordko-Ber, age 17, and daughters, Feiga age 14, Sura age 10, and Maria age 7.

yes 46 FLEISCHER Leya Leibko or Leibko-Mordko townsman 1841 1834 1850 9 daughter of Leibko-Mordko Yosev Feygya female

Analysis: This household (#46) has the surname Fleischer. There is also another household (#74) with the surname Flesher. There is no obvious familial connection between them.

Here a 36 year old by the name of Duvid-Moishe son of Yos (also called Duvid-Moisha Yosev) is head of household. He was born in 1814 and present in the earlier 1834 census. He is married to Basya, age 33, and they have two daughters, their names and ages not recorded. One of them is named Sura-Leya in the 1858 census. Also in the household is his mother Ester, age 51. She was born in 1799.

Duvid-Moisha also has three younger brothers listed. His brother Leibko, age 26, is present with his wife Feiga, age 25, and a daughter Sura, age 10 and a daughter Leya. His brother Nukhim-Khaim is missing as of 1849 at the age of 24. Another brother Khaim was recuited in 1844 at age 9.

There is an Isaac Fleisher/Fleischer, born 1875 in Mervits who married Sorkeh Wurtzel from Mervits and migrated to Philadelphia. He is likely a descendant of this family and may be the son of Duvid-Moshe and Faiga.

47 NEFTMAN Rukhlya not indicated townsman 1826 1834 1850 24 wife of Moshko Yos-Nutov female

Analysis: Yos-Nuta son of Abram (also called "Yos-Nuta Abramov") is head of household and 60 years old. He is one of the oldest living men in town. His wife, Branya, is younger and 45 years old. She is likely a second wife since the eldest son is Kisel-Kelman, age 36.

Two additional sons are in the household: Mosho, age 26 and Abram-Berysh. Two daughters are also present, Sura-Leya, age 21, and Basya, age 16. The eldest son, Kisel-Kelman, is married and his wife, Leyla, age 30 is present and well as a daughter, Beyla, age 7. The second son is also married, to a woman named Rukhlya. They have no children listed.

48 KIPERSHNAD Shlema Duvid townsman 1790 1834 44 died 1840 1850 not indicated nephew of Yos Moshkov male

Analysis: The head of household, Yos son of Moshko (also called "Yos Moshkov"), died in 1846 at the age of 58. He was born in 1788 and was present in Mervits for the 1834 census. He may have been in Mervits when the area became part of Russia in 1793. Still present in the household is Yos's wife, Reyzya, who is 46 and his son, Moishe-Gersh, who is 26.

A nephew, Shlema Kipershnad, is listed but died in 1840 at the age of 50. We can assume that Shlema's mother was probably Yos's sister. It is interesting to see that Shlema, a nephew, was born only two years after his uncle Yos. This was probably because of a large spread in ages between Yos and an older sister.

Analysis:This is the fourth of six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92 #112), several of which appear related. See a summary of the Steinshnad household relationships. There are also four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92) but there is no evidence that Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families are related.

The head of household, Shelma-Leib son of Urin (also called "Shlema-Leib Urinov") is 57. He appears to be the oldest living head of household in 1850. He is probably the brother of Froim Faivish, head of household #34 since they both are sons of Urin Steinshnad.

In the household with Shlema-Leib is his wife, Pesya-Gitel, age 34, a daughter Ryva, age 10 and a nephew, Urin-Gersh, age 25. Urin-Gersh is son of Moshko who is in all probability another brother of Shlema-Leib.

50 FURSHPON Etya not indicated townsman 1832 1834 10 1850 18 wife of Lipa Itskov female

Analysis: This household includes relatives of the Vexel and Furshpon families. The head of household, Duvid-Beynish son of Sender (also called "Duvid-Beynish Senderov") is 66-years-old and the oldest living person in this revision list. His wife, Basya, is 52. Their son Sender-Gersh died in 1839 at the age of 22. Sender's daughter, Basya-Gudya, age 15 is present in the household. She would have been about 4-years-old when her father died. Her mother is not mentioned and may have left the household when her husband passed away.

Also present in the household is a nephew of Duvid-Beynish, Mordko son of Itsko (also called "Mordko Itskov"). Since he has a different surname, we can assume he is a son of Duvid-Beynish's sister. He has been missing since 1850 when he was 28. A brother of his named Lipa, age 26, is present with his wife, Etya, age 18.

Analysis: This is the first of two Bukhgalter households (household #51) and Bukhgalter (household # 139). The two heads of household appear to brothers.

Two of the household members who were present in 1834 passed away by this revision in 1850. The head of this household, Yudko-Aizik son of Wolf (also called Yudko-Aizik Volfov) passed away in 1846 at the age of 46 and his son Peysakh died in 1841 at the age of 16. Yudko-Aizik's wife, Hana, is still present in the household at the age of 52 and their other son, Moshko, age 23, is also present with his wife, Sura, age 20.

Analysis: The head of household Yos-Gersh son of Shevel (also called "Yos-Gersh Shevelev") is 27 and his wife, Zlata, is 26.

There is a Kwasgalter family remembered in the later list of Mlynov martyrs p. 438, which may be descendants of this family. One of them is in fact named Zlata which is the same first name as the wife here after whom she was probably named.

53 FISHMAN Rivka Yorikhim-Moishe townsman 1838 1834 1850 12 daughter of Yorikhim-Moisha Yokhinov Silka female

Analysis: This is the second of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, household #53, household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). Only this one (#53) and the previous (#33) have names in common suggesting a possible relationship. It is possible that the head of household here (Yorikhim-Moishe son of Yokhin) is the son of the man named Yoikhim Fishman who was listed as head of household #33.

Here Yorikhim-Moishe (also called "Yorikhim-Moisha Yokhinov") is age 42. His wife is Silka, age 40. They have a son named Yoikhim, age 15, who was named for his paternal grandfather (possibly the Yoikhim listed in household #33). They also have a daughter, Rivka age 12.

Analysis: The head of this Gertnik household, Avrum-Meyer son of Leib (also called "Avrum-Meyer Leibov") passed away in 1840 at the age of 40. His grandson and namesake, age 15, is the only member remaining in the household.

There is a Gertnik family remembered in an essay by Yosef Gertnich in the Mlynov-Mervits Memorial Book. His father's name was Moshe and his grandfather's name was Mordechai. It sees possible that this Gernik family in the census is his ancestral family.

Analysis: This is the first of two Erlikhman households that appear to be related ( #55 and #102). Here, Yankel son of Shavel, the head of the family passed away in 1940 at the age of 54. He was born in 1786, possibly one of the earliest birth dates in this list. His son Moshko-Ber, age 30, is present in the household along with his wife, Ester-Yenta, age 20. A son of theirs is listed named Yekhev, age 16. Yekhev appears too old to be the son of Ester-Yenta and perhaps she is a second wife.

Analysis: The head of household, Yankel son of Yudko (also called "Yankel Yudkov") died in 1939 at the age of 63. His son, Leizar, died in 1835 at the age of 26. Still present in the household is his son Meyer, age 26.

It seems likely that the woman named Dvoira, who appears in the 1851 supplement without a surname, belongs with this family since she is the wife of Meyer Yankelev. The Meyer son of Yankel here is the appropriate ageand would normally be called Meyer Yankelev. There is a Meyer Yankelev in the Kolodne family but he died just two years after this Devorah was born.

57 FELDMAN Tsipya Shmul-Shlema townsman 1834 1834 1850 16 daughter of Shmul-Shlema Gershkov Rivka female

Analysis: This is the first of six separate Feldman households in the 1850 census ( #57, #59, #82 #84 #108, #116). It appears that members of households (#57, #59, #82, and #116) are all cousins and descended from Yos Feldman. Household #82 is almost certainly related to this one as discussed there.

This household has 9 members listed, and 7 present in 1850. The head of the household, Yos son of Gershov (also called "Yos Gershkov") died in 1847 at the age of 59. Still remaining in the household are two of his sons and their wives, two grandsons, and a granddaughter. A third grandson has been recruited and is no longer present.

The first son is Gershkov (also called "Gersh Yosev"), age 51, and his wife, Haya, age 50. The younger son is Shmuel-Shlema (also called "Shmul-Shlema Gershkov"), age 31, his wife Rivka, age 31, with their son, Ire-Wolf, age 12 and their daughter, Tsipya, age 16.

Also listed is a grandson, Shimon-Wolf son of Nesanel. He was recruited in 1843 at the age of 14. He is called a grandson, rather than a son, because unlike the other grandchildren in the household, Shimon-Wolf's father is not listed as a member of this household. His father, Nesanel, is almost certainly the man who reappears in 1851 in household #82, as discussed there.

Analysis: This is the second of five Berger households in the census (household #31), (household #58), (household #61), (household #66), (household #115). This one too is a small one, with four individuals listed and only three present. The head of household, Srul, son of Berko, passed away in 1844 at the age of 72. His grandon, Moishe-Khaim, age 27 is living in the household with his wife Perlya-Vekhnya, age 26 and his daughter Brukha-Reyzya, age 8. Moishe-Khaim's father was Abram-Yos, but he is not listed in the census.

Analysis: This is the second of six separate Feldman households in the 1850 census ( #57, #59, #82 #84 #108, #116). It appears that members of households (#57, #59, #82, and #116) are all cousins and descended from Yos Feldman, who is listed in household 57 and passed away in 1847.

Here Leizar, son of Yos (also called "Leizar Yosev") is head of the family at age 40. His wife, Beylya, age 38 is present, as is their son Shulim, age 21 and Shulim's wife, Leya, age 20.

It is not clear why two other males in the household, Gershko, age 15 1/2 and Motya, age 11, are called "brothers of Shulim" and not "sons of Leizar," unless they are half-siblings and have a different father.

61 MEYSER Itsko-Oizer Hozyk townsman 1828 1834 6 missing 1848 1850 not indicated cousin of Gershko Urinov male

Analysis: This is the third of five Berger households in the census (household #31), (household #58), (household #61), (household #66), (household #115). This household also has a cousin listed from the Meyser family.

This is the second Berger household to list a Gershko. This Gershko may be one of the ancestors of several of these Berger households. This Gershko son of Urin (also called Gershko Urinov) was born in 1787 and was also present in 1834. He may have been living here in Mervits when it became part of Russia in 1793.

Only one or two members of this household are left present. Gershko son of Urin died in 1837 at the age of 50. His widow, Ester, is still in the household, age 60. A son of theirs, Urin-Leib, is missing as of 1949 and would have been 39 at the time. He shows up with his family in a supplementary revision taken in 1851 (see further below).

A nephew of Gerhsko, Avrum-Itsko son of Duvid, is listed as recruited in 1850 at the age of 26. It is a reasonable assumption that Avrum-Itsko's father, Duvid, was a brother of Gershko. It seems probable also that he is the Duvid Berger listed below in household #66 who was born in 1790 and son of Leib. He died in 1841 which explains why his son Avrum-Itsko is here living in his uncle's household. Though that Duvid Berger's father is named Leib, and the father of Gershko here is Urin, it appears they are the same person. Indeed, Gershko named one of his sons Urin-Leib suggesting his father's name was Urin-Leib and not just Urin.

A cousin of Gersho, Itsko-Oizer Meyser, is also listed. He went missing in 1848 at the age of 20. He appears to be of a younger generation, though the precise relationship is not specified.

By an 1851 revision, we learn that Gershko's son, Urin-Leib, has returned or is found. As detailed in the table that follows, he is 39, married to Sura-Basya age 36 and has a 14-year-old daughter Reyza-Etya and an 8 year-old-son, Ovshiya Motel. We don't know whether they were just absent in 1850 or they had been in hiding because of the son's age and some pending conscription.

62 KLEYNER Rivka not indicated townsman 1830 1834 omitted 1850 20 wife of Itsko Moshkov female

Analysis: This is the first of two Kleyner households that appear related (household #62 , and household #107). The young man here, Itsko son of Moshko Kleyner is described as the grandson of Shmul Abramov. In the other Kleyner household #107, the head of household, Abel Kleyner, is described as a son of Shmul. It seems likely that the Shmul Kleyner in both cases is the same man.

Here Itsko, age 26, is married to Rivka, age 20. Note that Itsko is not called a head of household here, which is unusual and could be because he newly left household 107.

no 63 GELMAN Haya - townsman 1834 1838 1842 1850 19 wife of Gershko Mordko-Berov female

Analysis: There are two Gelman households in this census, (this household #63 and household #104). The two families may be related since the head of household in both cases is a man who is son of Abram Gelman and they were born not long apart in 1790 and 1792 respectively.

The head of this household is Morko-Ber son of Abram (1790–1849), also called Mordko-Ber Abramov. He passed away shortly before this census in 1848 at the age of 44. He left behind two sons, Gershko, age 19 in 1850, and another son, Itsko-Srul (Yitzhak Yisrael) who was 12. A daughter Dvora-Basya age 8 is also present.

The eldest son Gershko is married to Haya, age 18, who is in household. They do not have any children listed.

Analysis: This is the fourth of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142). It seems likely that the head of household here, Mordko son of Faivish, born in 1801, is the brother of Lemel son of Faivish, who is head of household #29 and born 1788, and the brother of Shevel son of Faivish, head of household #41 and born in 1793. It seems very possible the other heads of households with that surname are first cousins and their fathers were brothers.

Here in the 1850 revision, Mordko is listed as missing in 1849 at the age of 48 as is his son Meyer-Fayvel who went missing the same year at age 32. In the 1851 supplemental revision, Meyer-Fayvel reappears with his family. He is 34 and married to Rukhlya, age 30, and they have two daughters, Malka-Freyda, age 15, and Dinya-Mirlya, age 12.

65 FISHMAN Yenta Khaim-Mendel townsman 1839 1834 1850 11 daughter of Khaim-Mendel Abram-Duvidov Sura-Freydya female

Analysis: This is the third of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, household #53, household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). There is no self-evident connections between this one and the others.

The head of household, Abram-Duvid son of Meyer-Gershko (also called "Abram-Duvid Meyer Gershkov"), died in 1841 at the age of 42. His widow Rukhlya, age 51, is still in the household along with two sons, Khaim-Mendel, age 28 and Yankel-Moishe, age 12. A brother of Abram-Duvid, named Zelik, went missing in 1846 at the age of 31.

Their son Khaim-Mendel is married to Sura-Freydya, age 28, and they have two daughters: Ester-Hana, page 16 and Yenta, age 11.

66 BERGER Duvid Leib townsman 1790 1834 44 died 1841 1850 not indicated head of family male

Analysis: This is the fourth of five Berger households listed in the census (household #31), (household #58), (household #61), (household #66), (household #115). The household no longer exists and is listed to show what became of it between 1834, the earlier revision, and this one in 1850. The head of the family, Duvid son of Leib, died in 1841 since the last revision. He was 51 at the time. Duvid was born in 1790 and may even have been born in Mervits when it was still part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

As discussed in Berger household #61 above, this Duvid son of Leib, appears to be the brother of Gershko, the head of that family. It appears that Duvid's son, Avrum-Itsko, went to live with his uncle Gershko after his father died and is listed in that household.

Analysis:This is the first of three Yuniuk households ( #67, #100, #130. It appears that the head of this household #67 Moshko-Abram son of Duvid may be the brother of Shmual-Abram son of Duvid, head of household #27.

This household is headed by Moshko-Abram (also called "Moshko-Abram Duvidov"), age 35. He is married to Rivka, age 32.

Analysis: This is the first of three Vinokurnik households which have no overt connection ( #70, #89, #111).

A small household with only two members listed. The head of the family, Leib-Gerts son of Vigdor (also called "Leib-Gerts Vigdorov") died in 1839 at the age of 63. His son, Yos, age 11 is the only member still in the household. One naturally wonders if there is some other adult responsible or whether Yos is living on his own.

71 KREMER Rivka Ovshiya townsman 1816 1834 1850 34 wife of Ovshiya Yankelev female

Analysis: This is the only household with the surname Kremer. However, the surname of household #8 is Kreymer and perhaps an alternative variation on the surname. The fact that that head of household and this one are sons of Yankel make it plausible they are brothers. Their birth years are close together as well.

Here Ovshiya son of Yankel, age 43, is head of household. In the household is his wife, Rivka, age 34 and a son, Alter-Beniumin, age 12.

72 GRINSHPUN Basya-Rukhlya Itsko townsman 1840 1834 1850 10 daughter of Itsko Vigdorov Rukhlya female

Analysis:This is the fifth of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142).

This is the first Grinshpun family where the father of the household head is named Vigdor. Here Itsko son of Vigdor is age 34 and was born in 1817. Household #103 below lists a Itsko son of Vigdor who was born in 1818 and died in 1837. It is not clear if they were brothers or just related or why they have the same father and same first name.

In this household with Itsko son of Vigdor (also called "Itsko Vigdorov"), is his mother, Metlya, age 60, one of the oldest living persons in this revision list. Also present is his wife Rukhlya, age 30, a son, Moishe-Meyer, age 9, and two daughters, Gitlya, age 12, and Basya-Rukhlya, age 10.

Analysis:This is the first of three Gekhtman households:household #73, household #126, household #134. It seems they may all be related through Aizik Gekhtman who is listed alone in household #126. It seems his son Morko is head of household #73 and his son Avrum-Ber is head of household #134. Here the head of household, Mordko son of Aizyk (also called "Mordko Aizikov") has been missing since 1849 at the age of 31. His cousin, Kogos son of Lipa, age 49, is present with his wife, Yenta, age 46. A son of theirs, Lipa-Ber, died in 1843 at the age of 17. This is one of the few

no 74 FLESHER Reyzya Beniumin townsman 1834 1834 1850 16 daughter of Beniumin Abramov Hana female

The surname of this household (#74) is Flesher which differs from the surname of household (#46) which is Fleischer.

This is a small household. Beniumin, son of Abram (also called Beniumin Abramov) is head of household. He is 47 with an implied birth year of 1803. There is no information about him from the earlier 1834 census though information is given about others in the household for that year. It is not clear, therefore, whether the family was already present by 1834.

In the household with him is his wife, Hana, age 41 (implied birth year of 1809), his son Alter, age 15, and his daughter Reyzya, age 16.

A brother, Yos-Ber, is listed but not present. The census indicates he was recruited in 1846 at the age of 17. If the information is correct, his implied birth year is 1829, making him 26 years younger than his older brother and head of household, Beniumin.

Analysis:This is the second of four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92). There are also six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92, #112). There is no obvious relationship between Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families.

The head of household here, Nokhman son of Yudko (also called "Nokhman Yudkov") went missing in 1850 at the age of 59. His son Yudko went missing in 1850 as well at the age of 30. We can guess that they went missing together. Another son, Mikhel, was recruited in 1839 at the age of 16.

In the 1851 supplement, Yudko reappears and is listed as 31.With him in the household is his mother, age 60, his wife Rivka-Malya, age 24, and their son, Gersh-Leib, age 7, and a daughter Marya-Enya, age 4. His father did not reappear.

Analysis:This is the third of four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92). There are also six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92, #112). There is no obvious relationship between Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families.

In the 1850 revision, the head of household, Berko son of Gershon (also called "Berko Gershkov") has been missing since 1845 at the age of 44. He reappears with his family in 1851 and is listed as age 49. With him is his wife, Vekhna, age 40, and a daughter, Ester, age 15. In the same 1851 revision, we find that three of his nephews from the Vinokurnik household (#89) have come to live in this household with their uncle.

It seems plausible that the Berko here is the father of Wolf in household #42 who is described as a son of Berko. Their respective ages make this interpretation plausible.

The Berer household is a small family unit of a husband, Wolf, son of Leizar (also called "Wolf Leizarov"), age 38, his wife Malka, age 35, and a 16 year old son, Leyzer, who apparently is named for his grandfather. It is not clear whether the family was present in Mervits in 1834, since data for that year is only provided for the son, who was listed newborn.

78 | 16 FINKELSTEIN Ester not indicated townsman 1837 1834 1851 14 sister of Shlema Shmarya-Moishev female

Analysis: This is the second of four Finkelstein households: #32, #78, #79 #104. The first three are almost certainly related and descendants of Morko Finkelstein.

Here the head of household, Shmaria-Moishe son of Mordko (also called "Shmarya-Moishe Mordkov") is 48 and married to Rukhlya, age 30. Rukhlya could be his second wife based on their age difference and since his son, Shlema, who is also present in the household is age 19. (Rukhlya would have been 11 when she gave birth to him if she was in fact his mother, which is biologically possible).

In the 1850 census, Shlema (also called "Shlema Shmarya-Moishev") is also married to Pesya, age 19. But in the 1851 supplement (#16), his wife is listed as "Enya" age 18. It is not clear if he remarried or this is a different name for the same wife or some other reason explains the discrepancy. In the 1851 supplement, two sisters of Shlema are also listed, Dvora-Liba, age 16, and Ester, age 14. They would presumably also be daughters of Shmaria-Moishe and Rukhlya, but they are not described that way.

Analysis: This is the third of four Finkelstein households: #32, #78, #79 #104. This household #79 is almost certainly relatives of households #32, #78. The head of household in each case is a son of Morko and very probably brothers.

Here the head of household is Shlema son of Mordko. He was missing as of 1843 at the age of 39–40. His brother Itsko-Srul is present in the household, age 37 with a wife, Gyenya, age 39. Also present in the household is a nephew of Shelma. His name is Yudko son of Duvid, age 44.

In the 1851 supplement (household #17), additional family members appear. A young male, Yankel Shlema, is now present, age 21. He is the son of Yudko who was identified as the nephew in the 1850 revision. Yankel Shlema's mother, Gyenya, age 39 is also listed. (She is apparently a different Gyenya than the one already identified in 1850 as the wife of Itsko-Srul). A sister of Yankel Shlema, named Haya, age 16, is also present.

80 FILKENSTEIN Ester Munish townsman 1847 1834 1850 3 daughter of Munish Yudkov Golda female

Analysis: This is the first of two Filkenstein (not Finkenstein) households (#80, #81), which may be related.

This is quite a large household with 14 names and 12 members still present. The head of household, Leib son of Aron (also called "Leib Aronov") died in 1846 at the age of 52. His wife Basya, age 36, is still present in the household, along with their three daughters, Frima, age 14, Peysya, age 10 and Reyzya, age 6.

Also in the household is a nephew of Leib Aronov. His name is Moshko son of Faivish, age 45, with his wife Reyzya, age 41, their son, Avrum-Yankel, age 9 and daughter Sura, age 15. An older son of theirs, Anshel-Leib, died in 1838 at the age of 12.

A brother-in-law of Leib Aronov is also present in the household. His name is Munish son of Yudko (also called "Munish Yudko"), age 29. He is married to Golda, age 25, who is presumably Leib Aronov's sister. The fact that Munish, a brother-in-law, has the same surname (Filkenstein) as the head of household suggests that perhaps Munish is a cousin from the male line.

The closeness in surnames between Filkenstein and Finkelstein leads one to wonder if these family lines were related. If so, Munish's father Yudko could be the man named Yudko Finkelstein listed in household #79. But there are no additional grounds to support that connection.

Analysis: This is the second of two Filkenstein households (#80, #81). The families may be related, though it is not certain. A Moshko Filkenstein is mentioned here and in #80 but the implied birth years indicate they are not the same person, though they may be related or one named for the other.

Shlema son of Moshko (also called "Shlema Moshkov") passed away in 1846 at the age of 37. He was born in 1809 and was present for the 1834 revision. No widow is listed but still present in the household are two daughters, Elka, age 16, and Freyda, age 15.

Also present in the houshold is a brother of Shlema Moshkov. His name is Khaim Motya (also called "Khaim Motya Moshkov"), age 26, his wife Gitlya, age 25, their son Shlema-Gdal, age 2, and a daughter Perlya, age 6.

82 | 18 FELDMAN Haya not indicated townsman 1826 1834 1851 25 wife of Wolf Nesanelev female

Analysis: This is the third of six separate Feldman households in the 1850 census (#57, #59, #82 #84 #108, #116). This household appears almost certainly related to household #57 and probably also to #82, and #116.

The head of this household, Nesanel son of Yos (also called "Nesanel Yoilev") is very probably the same Nesanel Feldman listed as the father of Shimon-Wolf, who appears in household #57 and is listed as recruited in 1843. The record of household #57 indicates Nesanel's son, Shimon Wolf, was missing as of 1845 when he was 45 years old. We also see that that family in household #57 were descendants of a man named Yos Feldman, which matches the name of Nesanel's father here. In addition, the name "Wolf" is part of Nesanel's son's name in #57 and here he also has a son with "Volf" as one of his names. For all of these reasons, it appears that Nesanel here was the son of Yos Feldman listed in #57 and the brother of Gershko listed there.

Though Nesanel was absent here in the 1850 revision, he reappears with family in the 1851 supplement, age 50, suggesting he was born in 1801 and was already living in Mervits in 1834. With him in the household now is his wife, Leya, age 48, his son, Volf-Mordko (also called Wolf Nesanelev), age 26, Wolf's wife Haya, age 26, and their son Moishe-Faivish, age 8. Also present in the household is a daughter of Nesanel, Rukhlya, age 16.

Analysis:This is the fifth of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142).

This is the first Grinshpun family where the father of the household head is named Vigdor. Here Itsko son of Vigdor is age 34 and was born in 1817. Household #103 below lists a Itsko son of Vigdor who was born in 1818 and died in 1837. It is not clear if they were brothers or just related or why they have the same father and same first name.

In this household with Itsko son of Vigdor (also called "Itsko Vigdorov"), is his mother, Metlya, age 60, one of the oldest living persons in this revision list. Also present is his wife Rukhlya, age 30, a son, Moishe-Meyer, age 9, and two daughters, Gitlya, age 12, and Basya-Rukhlya, age 10.

83 | 33 GRINSHPUN Sosya-Haya Fayvel townsman 1836 1834 1851 15 daugther of Faivel Gertsov Keylya female

Analysis: This is the sixth of ten Grinshpun households (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142). We can guess that the head of household here, Fayvel son of Gerts, age 39 is related to brothers who head households #29, #41, and #64, since they are sons of Faivish. The name Fayvel is a diminuitive variation on Faivish and he was probably named for Faivish or someone else with the name in the family line.

Here, Fayvel is age 39 and his wife, Keylya is 34. One daughter, Sluva, age 2, is listed in the 1850 revision. Another older daughter, Sosya-Haya, was listed only in the 1851 supplement. She is listed as 15.

This is the fourth of the six Feldman households (#57, #59, #82, #84, #108, #116). The head of household, Aizyk son of Abram (also called "Aizik Abramov") has been missing since 1847 when he was 46-years-old. His nephew Lipa, son of Yutsko, age 27 is present as is Lipa's wife, Etya, age 20. There is no obvious connection between this Feldman household and the others.

85 EISENTSTEIN Maria Shlema townsman 1838 1834 1850 12 daughter Shlema Berkov Haya-Bluma female

Analysis:The Eisenstein family has 7 members listed but only 4 present in the household. The head of household, Shlema son of Berko (also called Shlema Berkov), was born in 1788 but passed away in 1846 at the age of 58. He left behind a wife, Haya-Bluma, who is quite a bit younger at age 36. Although she is listed as the mother of the children, the children's ages suggest she may be a second wife and not the mother of them all.

Two of the sons listed are no longer present: Menakhim-Leib died in 1847 at the age of 29. The other son, Meyer-Ber, was recruited in 1840 at the age of 17. A 3-year-old son, Moishe, is still present in the household and well as two daughters, Babya, age 16, and Maria, age 12, are also present.

86 FISHMAN Myenya not indicated townsman 1826 1834 8 1850 30 wife of Abram-Khaim Elev female

Analysis: This is the fourth of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, household #53, household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). There is no self-evident connections between this one and the others.

The head of household, Elya son of Leib (also called "Elya Liebov") passed away in 1838 at the age of 46. There is no widow listed. There are two sons and a brother of Elya listed, but only one of them is still present in the household with his family.

A brother, Yudko, has been missing since 1845 at the age of 45. A son named Yos-Itsek was recruited in 1849 at the age of 18.

Another son Abram-Khaim is present, age 36, with his wife, Myena, age 30, and a son, Elya (named for his grandfather), age 3. A brother of Abram-Khaim named Haikel is also listed, age 30. It is not clear why Haikel would be listed as a "brother" of Abraham-Khaim and not a son of Elya son of Leib.

Analysis: The head of the family, Abram son of Yel (also called "Abram Yelev") died in 1839 at the age of 41. Remaining in the household is his widow, Malka, age 49, his son Aizyk-Yelya, age 22 with his son's wife, Rukhlya, age 20.

no 88 VETSEL Reyzya Duvid-Ovediye townsman 1838 1834 1850 12 daughter of Duvid-Ovediye Gersh-Leibov Shendlya female

Analysis: This is the first of two Vertsel households (household #88, household #137). There is no obvious relationship between these two households.

The head of this household, Duvid-Ovediye son of Gersh Leib, died in 1848 at the age of 40. His widow Shendlya, age 36, remains in the household along with their son, Sukhar-Moishe, age 16 and daughter, Reyzya, age 12.

In the later 1858 revision, Shukhar-Moishe is married to a woman named Mirlya and they have a one year old daughter, Royta-Leya. It seems likely they are the ancestors remembered among the descendants from the Wurtzel family from Mervits. See the 1858 revison for a discussion.

89 | 19 VINOKURNIK Shulim Iser townsman 1839 1834 newborn 1851 12 brother of Duvid Iserov male

Analysis: This is the second of three Vinokurnik households which have no overt connection ( #70, #89, #111). As we shall see, this household recombines with the Steinshnader (household #76) as becomes evident in the 1851 supplement. The record gives us a nice window into how households recombine over time and how nephews move in with their maternal uncle's household after their own father has passed.

The 1850 revision lists Isser-Zelman Vonokurno (also called "Isser-Zelman Shmerlev") as head of household and as having died in 1839 at the age of 38. His son, Duvid, is listed as missing as of 1844 at the age of 18.

By 1851, Duvid has reappeared and is listed in household #19 in the revision supplement. His surname is now spelled Vinokurnik. With him are younger brothers Moshko, 15, and Shulim, age 12. In household #19 in the supplement also appear the Steinshnader family (household #76 in the 1850 census). Duvid here is the nephew of Berko Gershkov Steinshnader, who is head of household in household #76.

Apparently, this household was independent in 1850 and earlier. But after the head of family died, his sons joined the household of their uncle Berko Gershkov Steinshnader (household #76) , who must have been married to their mother, whose name we don't know.

Analysis: Abram son of Gershko (also called "Abram Gershkov"), age 43, is head of household. His wife, Ides, age 41, is present along with his daughter, Tsiprya, age 15, and a son, Duvid-Gersh, age 10.

91 KANTER Duvid-Noekh Khaim townsman 1826 1834 8 missing 1836 1850 not indicated brother of Shevel Khaimov male

Analysis: This Vestser household also has relatives from the Kanter family. Here, Abram son of Berko (also called "Abram Berkov"), age 48 is head of the household. His son, Navtulya-Duvid, went missing in 1840 at the age of 15.

A nephew of Abram by the name of Shevel Kanter (also called "Shevel Khaimov"), age 35 is in the household. We can assume that Shevel's mother was a siser of Abram Vestser. Shevel's brother, Duvid-Noekh, went missing in 1836 at the age of 10. Shevel's son, Ikev-Noekh, age 7 is present in the household. No wives are listed.

92 | 34 STEINSHNADYR Sura-Gitlya not indicated townsman 1803 1834 1851 48 wife of Mikhel Yosev female

Analysis:This is the fifth of six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92 #112), several of which appear related. See a summary of the Steinshnad household relationships. There are also four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92) but there is no evidence that Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families are related.

In 1850, the head of household, Mikhel son of Yos, is listed as missing since 1846. He would have been 45. He is the only member of the household. In the 1851 supplement, he reappears and his information is confirmed. He is now 50. With him is his wife, Sura-Gitlya, age 48. Her last name is spelled "Steinshnadyr" one indication that other variations of the surname may be part of the same family.

As a son of Yos, Mikhel probably is the older brother of Yorikhim-Ansel, who is head of household # 45. Both men are sons of Yos Steinshnad. Mikhel listed here was born in 1801 and Yorikhim-Anshel listed there (#45) was born in 1807.

This listing also removes an ambiguity in how to interpret the revision data generally. It proves that the age given in the column following "Previous Census Year" is indeed the age in 1834 (and not the age when he was reported missing!) Thus, when he is reported missing as of 1846, it was 16 years after 1834 data, and he would be about 48. His reappearance in 1851 confirms this interpretation and shows he is now 51.

Analysis: A small household of three individuals. Alter son of Yos (also called "Alter Yosev") is head of household and age 31. His wife Sosya, age 24, may be his second wife, since his son Meyer-Gersh is age 15. Sosya would have been 9 to be the mother of Meyer-Gersh. Alternatively, it is possible that Meyer-Gersh is not actually their son.

There are Fisher descendants who contributed essays to the Mlynov-Mervits memorial book who are descendants of this Fisher family. Chaya Moses-Fisher indicates her father was named Meir Fisher and descendants in Israel confirm this is the same Meir listed here.

96 | 21 BIGDER Rukhlya not indicated townsman 1834 1851 34 wife of Vigdor Gershkov female

Analysis: This household combines members of the Wainer family and the Bidger family. This is the second of three Wainer households ( #16, #96, #110) but there is no overt relationship between them.

Here Kaim-Shlema, son of Leib (also called "Khaim Shlema Leibov") age 44 is head of the household. His wife, Rivka-Gitlya, age 40 is present with their son, Yudko, age 7, and two daughters, Hasya, age 13, and Hantsya-Leya, age 8. A brother of Khaim-Shlema is also listed. His name is Gersh Wolf and he has been missing since 1848 at the age of 38.

There are also two cousins of Khaim Shlema in the household with the surname Bigder. It seems possible that their mother had the last name Wainer but married a man named Gershko Bigder. Vigdor, is age 35 and present with his wife, Rukhlya, age 34. Vigdor's brother (the other cousin) went missing in 1848 at the age of 29.

Analysis: The 1850 revision indicates that the head of household, Zelman son of Abram (also called "Zelman Abramov") died in 1839 at the age of 31. His son Shlema age 15 is present in the household. In the 1851 supplement, a woman named Dvoira appears who is wife of Shmul Faivelev. No information is provided about him.

It seems possible that this "Lakrats" household (#97) is related to the "Lokrats" household (#24) since the first and last names are similar.

Analysis:This is the first of two Vetser households which are apparently headed by brothers ( #98, #122). Here the head of household, Usher son of Zivel (also called "Usher Zaivelev"), is age 51. He is apparently the brother of Meyer (household #122) who is also a son of Zainvel Vetser.

Living here with Usher is his wife Brandlya, age 46, a daughter, Hana, age 16, and a son Getzel, age 14.

99 GIMBELSTEIN Sosya Zainvel townsman 1835 1834 1850 15 daughter of Zainvel Leibov Shifra female

Analysis: Zainvel son of Leib (also called "Zainvel Leibov") is age 43 and head of household. Also present is his wife, Shifrya (also spelled Shifra) age 28. Also present in the household are two sons, Khaim, age 27, and Pinkhas-Leib, age 15, and a daughter, Sosya, age 15. Perhaps Sosya and Pinkhas-Leib are twins since they are the same age. A third son, Itsko, went missing in 1845 at the age of 18.

The surname of this household is very close to surname Gilmenstein of household #35. Both are headed by men who are sons of Leib. One wonders whether they are brothers with variations on their surnames.

Analysis:This is the first of three Yuniuk households ( #67, #100, #130. As discussed above (in the analysis of household #67), it appears these households are related, though that is not certain.

Here head of household, Moshko son of Abram (also called "Moshko Abramov" is 40. Also present is his wife, Freygya, age 39, a son Abrum-Duvid, age 16, and three daughters, Sura Gitlya, age 18, Tovba, age 12, and Mirlya, age 9.

Analysis: The head of household, Shmul son of Abram (also called "Shmul Abramov") is 44 and was born in 1806. The household comprises his wife, Pesya, age 34, and a son, Abram-Gersh, age 9, and four daughters, Hana age 18, Leya age 14, Rivka age 10 and Sura age 6. It is of interest that Hana is age 18 and still unmarried. She is one of the oldest daughters still living in a household in this revision.

Analysis: This is the second of two Erlikhman households that appear to be related ( #55 and #102). Moishe-Leib, listed here as the head of the family, died in 1848 at the age of 38. He left behind a son, Noekh, age 22.

A nephew, Novakh-Shavel son of Yukel (also called "Noekha Yukelev"), is died in 1847 at the age of 33. He left behind a wife, Ester, age 30, and a daughter, Perlya, age 10. This nephew could have been the son of the man listed as head of Erlikhman household #55 named Yankel Erikhman. Yankel died in 1840 and perhaps his son, Novakh-Shavel, joined this household upon his father's death. It thus appears that the two original heads of household were brothers.

from 1851 revision 103 | 22 BURSTEIN Haya not indicated townsman 1826 1834 1851 25 wife of Nusyn Itskov female

Analysis: This is primarily a Burstein household but a nephew, Itsko Grinshpun, is listed as once part of the household. It is reasonable to assume that Itsko Grinsphun's mother was a sister of the head of household, Itsko Burstein. His relationship to the other Grinshpun households is discussed below.

In the 1850 revision, all the males of this household are absent. Three are listed as "missing," one was "recruited" and the nephew has previously died. The head of household Itsko son of Moshko (also called Itsko Moshkov) was missing as of 1849 at the age of 53. His son, Mikhelson, is listed as recruited in 1847 at the age of 16. Itsko's brother, Nusyn Wolf (also called Nusyn-Wolf Moshkov) is also missing as of 1848 at the age 46 as well as Nusyn-Wolf's son, Mordko, at the age of 20.

Two of the wives are present holding down the household in 1850. Itsko's wife, Ryatsya, age 52 is present. A woman named Feiga is also listed, age 26, as the wife of Nukhim-Wolf Moshkov. It seems likely that "Nukhim-Wolf" is just a variation on the name of the brother listed as "Nusyn-Wolf."

In the 1851 supplement, two of the men reappear. Itsko Burstein is now present, age 55. He was born in 1796 and was present in Mervits for the 1834 census. Also reappearing is Itsko's brother Nusyn-Wolf, listed as 41 with an implied birth year of between 1808-1810.

A wife of Nusyn's named Haya, age 25, is also listed in the supplement. It seems likely that Haya in 1851 is the woman named "Feiga" in the 1850 census as the wife of "Nukhim-Wolf Moshkov." Perhaps she was known as Haya-Feiga, since often two names were used to refer to people. It is also possible that Nusyn remarried between 1850 and 1851 and this woman Haya is a new wife not listed previously.

As noted above, this Burstein household once included Itsko Grinsphun, a nephew of Itsko Burstein. It seems reasonable to assume this Itsko's father, Vigdor Grinshpun, married the sister of Itsko Burstein. This Itsko Grinsphun son of Vigdor has the identical name as the household head in Grinshpun household #72. The Itsko Grinshpun here was born in 1819 and died in 1837 at the age of 19. The one there (#72) was born in 1817 and is still alive in 1850. We can guess that they may have been first cousins named for the same person. This is the seventh of ten households with Grinsphun members (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142).

yes 104 GELMAN Basya-Leya Peysakh townsman 1842 1834 1850 8 daughter Peysakh Moshkov Ginesya female

This is the second of two Gelman households in the census which may be related through brothers. The members of the first (household #63) which were all related to the Mordko-Ber, son of Abram. This household (household #104) is all related to Moshko, son of Abram, who is 58 with an implied birth year of 1792. If the two heads of households are brothers, Moshko is two years younger than Mordko–Ber, who recently passed away.

Moshko is still present in this household with his wife, Hana who is 54. Their son Peysakh is listed but recently passed away in 1848 at about the age of 28. Peysakh left behind a wife, Ginesya, age 30, a son Abram, age 16, and two daughters, Ester-Haya, age 12 and Basya-Leya, age 8.

This Abram, as discussed in the 1858 census, appears to be the ancestor of Gelman family descendants who live in Israel.

Analysis: This is the fourth of four Finkelstein households: #32, #78, #79 #104. There is no obvious connection between this Finkelstein household and the other three (#32, #78 and #79).

A small household with two members listed, neither of whom are present in the 1850 revision. Mosko son of Lakhman died in 1848 at the age of 52. His brother was recruited in 1837 at an unknown age.

Analysis: In the 1850 census, Nusin Borstein son of Itsko, is listed as missing as of 1849 when he was 49. His brother Yos was recruited in 1834 at the age of 12.

What draws attention is the reappearance of Nusin (now spelled Nusyn) in the 1851 supplemental revision taken a year later. Now Nusyn Borstein, age 41, appears with his wife, Haya, age 25, and a son, Mordko-Skharia, age 4. This example suggests that the status of "missing" in a revision might be for all kinds of reasons, not just because the person is hiding from authorities.

Analysis: This is the only family with the spelling "Finkenstein," though the name is close to the surnames Finkelstein and Filkenstein. It is conceivable that the man named Morko here is the same man as "Morko Finkelstein" mentioned in several households (#32, #78, #79) but this is not certain. Here the head of household, Aizyk-Wolf son of Morko is missing as of 1850 at the age of 54. His grandson, (unnamed), is age 12 and listed in the household. It seems unlikely he is living by himself but no other names are listed.

Analysis: This is the second of two Kleyner households that appear related (household #62 , and household #107). Abel son of Shmul (also called "Abel Shmulev"), age 46, is head of household. His wife, Leya-Ryva, age 38 and his brother, Berko, age 37, are both in the household.

It is reasonable to conclude that the Shmuel mentioned here as the father of Abel may be the grandfather of Itsko Kleyner listed in household #62.

Analysis: This is the fifth of the six Feldman households ( #57, #59, #82 #84 #108, #116). There is no obvious connection between this household and the others. Here, the head of household, Geynakh son of Favel (also called "Geynakh Favelev"), passed away in 1848 at the age of 48. Still present in the household is his wife Ester-Rukhlya, age 51, and their son, Fayvel son of Geynakh, age 16. It appears that the son, Fayvel was named for his grandfather who is also called Favel.

109 | 24 KOLODNE Hana Yankel-Leib townsman 1847 1834 1851 4 daughter of Yankel-Leib Yosev Hava-Leya female

Analysis: This is first of two Kolodne households (#109 and #114). It seems likely that the head of household here is the father of the household head in #114.

Here the head, Meyer son of Yankel (also called "Meyer Yankelev") died in 1839 at the age of 49. In the 1850, only a nephew, Yankel-Leib, age 30, is present in the household. He is likely a son of a brother of Meyer since he has the same surname. In the 1851 supplement, the females of Yankel-Leib's family appear. Perhaps they were living somewhere else in the meantime. Yankel-Leib is married to Hava-Leya, age 28 and they have three daughters, Gudya, age 14, Sura-Brukha, age 8 and Hana, age 4. Based on the age of the eldest daughter, it appears that Hava-Leya had her first child at age 14.

Here, the head of household, Borukh son of Srul (also called "Borukh-Yankev Srulev"), has been missing since 1848 at the age of 27. His nephew Moisha (also called Moisha Abe-Lemenov) is 28 and present with his wife Feiga, age 26, and a daughter, Sura, age 3.

Here head of household, Srul son of Yankel (also called "Srul Yankelev") died in 1839 at the age of 32. The only remaining household member mentioned is his nephew, Aizyk-Gersh, age 11. Aizyk-Gersh's father, Favel, was apparently the brother of Surl Vinokurnik.

Analysis: This is the last of six Steinshnad households ( #34, #35, #45, #49, #92 #112), several of which appear related. See a summary of the Steinshnad household relationships. There are also four Steinshnader/Steinshnadyr households ( #42, #75, #76, #92) but there is no evidence that Sheinshnad and Steinshnader families are related.

There is no obvious relationship between this household and the other Steinshnad households. Here the head of household, Mikhel-Joseph, died in 1839 at the age of 33. His nephew, Peysakh-Yuzyp (Yuzyp = perhaps Yosef) is the ony male in the household, age 24, with his wife, Idesya-Maria, 22, and a daughter Reyzya, age 6.

Analysis: This is the only household with the surname Krimer. However, it seems possible that the spelling is a variation on Kreymer (household #8) and Kremer (#71). Since each of these households is headed by a man who is son of Yankel, it is possible they are all brothers.

Here Vigdor son of Yankel (also called "Vigdor Yankelev") is 52, one of the oldest heads of family alive. In the household is a son, Yankel-Mendel, age 28, his wife, Touba, age 27 and a daughter Reyzya, age 6. Another son of Vigdor died in 1841. Someone penciled in his age in the 1834 census as age 8. This would make him 15 when he died.

114 KOLODNE Hana Meyer not indicated 1838 1834 1850 12 daughter of Srul-Yukel Meyerov Sura female

Analysis: This is second of two Kolodne households (#109 and #114). It seems likely that the head of household here is the son of the household head listed in #109.

Here, Srul (also called Srul-Yukel) is the son of Meyer Kolodne and 34 years old. His wife, Sura, is 30, and their daughter Hana is 12.

115 BERGER Hana-Mindlya Moishe-Joseph townsman 1832 1834 1850 18 daughter of Moisha-Joseph Urinov Reyzya female

Analysis:This is the fifth of five Berger households listed in the census (household #31), (household #58), (household #61), (household #66), (household #115). The head of household is Moishe-Yoseph son of Urin (also called Moishe-Joseph Urinov) age 48. His wife, Reyzya, age 30, is 18 years his junior. There is a daughter in the household, Hana-Mindlya, who is 18. She is listed as the daughter of Reyzya, but that would mean that Reyzya gave birth to her at age 12, which is possible, though it is also possible Moishe-Yoseph had a first wife, the mother of Hana-Mindlya, but then remarried a younger woman, Reyzya, who was the mother of his son, Gershko, now age 6.

The son's name Gershko is one that is associated with the head of the Berger family #61. As discussed there, that Gershko was likely also the brother of the man named Duvid Berger (household #66). That older Gershko passed away in 1837 and this Gershko was born in 1842. It seems plausible that he was named after the head of household in that Berger family #61.

What was their relationship? It seems possible that this young Gershko was that Gershko's great-grandson or a great nephew. We know this boy named Gerhsko was son of Moishe-Yoseph, who was son of Urin. We know that the older Gershko in household #61 had a father named Urin and Urin-Leib. It seems very likely that the Moishe-Yoseph listed here, who was born in 1802, was also a brother of Gershko (household #61) and Duvid (household #66)

It seems very probable that the young boy named Gershko here was named for his grandfather's brother or a Gershko in the earlier generation.

Analysis: This is the last of the six Feldman households (#57, #59, #82, #84, #108, #116). and likely one of four related households, who are all descendants of Yos Feldman (# 57,#59, #82 and this one, #116).

Here there is only one name listed, Leib son of Yos. Leib went missing in 1846 at the age of 36.

Analysis: This is a small family of two individuals. Morko, age 36, is head of the family. It is not clear if Ides, the woman of the household, is his wife. She is 39-years-old and is listed as the wife of "Peysakh Mordkov." It seems likely that Peysakh Mordko is another name for Mordko, the man listed as the head of household. But it is possible that there was another man in the family named Peysakh Mordko.

Analysis: In the 1850 revision (the first row), Urin-Itsko, son of Shama (or Shimon) is listed as mising since 1849. By the 1851 supplement he and his wife are now both present. Urin-Itsko is listed as 26-years-old and his wife, Gisya, is 20. Except for the juxtaposition of this household to the next Botsman household (#119), there is no other connection suggesting that the two households are related.

Analysis: This is the second of two Botsman households (see household #118 as well). The head of this Botsman household, Yankel son of Gerhsko (also called Yankel Gershkov) died in 1842 at the age of 39. His son Abram-Peysakh went missing in 1849 at the age of 20. Still present in this household is Yankel's other son, Srul, age of 12.

In the 1851 supplement, the missing Abram-Peysakh reappears (which is why his name is listed twice here). He is 23 years old. It is not clear why it the supplements says he died and perhaps there is an error by the clerk or some other error crept in.

120 KUDLAK Mordko-Gersh Yankel townsman 1832 1846 14 recruited 1848 1850 not indicated not indicated male

Analysis: This Pak household includes relatives from the Grinshpun family and one from the Kudlak family. The head of household is Moshko son of Shaya Pak (also called "Moshko Shayev"). He was missing as of 1849 at the age of 46. His younger brother Yankel-Yos, age 26, is still present in the household with his wife, Hansya, age 26.

Moshko's nephew, Moishe-Aron Grinshpun, and his two sons were was once part of this household although they are no longer present. Moishe Aron Grinshpun died in 1840 at the age of 39. His two sons, Khaim-Yukel and Ovshiya-Yankel, went missing in 1840 when they were 14 and 10 respectively. We can guess they went missing because their father died and they went somewhere else to live, unless they were both recruited that year.

Since Moishe-Aron Grinshpun was a nephew of Moshko Pak, we can assume that Moishe-Aron's father Khaim Grinsphun married a sister of Moshko Pak. It is not clear which if any of the other households with Grinshphun members in this revision are relatives: (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142).

It is not clear how Mordko-Gersh is related to the household since the name of his father doesn't match anyone in the household. He was recruited in 1948 at the age of 16.

Analysis: This is the fifth of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, household #53, household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). There is no self-evident connections between this one and the others.

Benish son of Erikhom (also called "Benish Erikhomov") is only 24, one of the youngest men actually designated head of household in this revision. In the household, is his wife, Etlya, age 24, a son Srul, age 9, a daughter, Lenya age 8, and a daughter Enya, age 5.

122 VETSER Avrum-Yuda Munish townsman 1836 1834 newborn 1850 14 nephew of Meyer Zainvelev male

Analysis: This is the second of two Vetser households which are apparently headed by brothers ( #98, #122). The head of household here, Meyer Vetser son of Zainvel (also called "Meyer Zainvelev"), was conscripted in 1834 at the age of 14. He is very likely the brother of Usher Vetser (household #98) who is also a son of Zainvel.

Remaining in this household is Meyer's nephew, Avrum Avrum-Yuda, age 14, son of Munish. We can assume Avrum-Yuda's father, Munish, was also a brother of Meyer and Urin Vetser.

[*] 1946 is listed as the previous census year, but his date death is given as 1839. Perhaps it is supposed to be 1849.

Analysis:

This is the second of two Nudler households (#5 and #123)

The 1850 revision says that Ber-Wolf son of Moshko (also called "Ber-Wolf Moshkov") died in 1939, but perhaps 1849 was intended. His age was 53 in an earlier census of 1846. His nephew, Beresh son of Itsko, age 16, is also in the household. It seems plausible that his father Itsko was a brother of Ber-Wolf, the head of the household.

124 SHTEPER Perlya not indicated townsman 1830 1834 1850 20 wife of Yankel Shlemov male

Analysis: The head of household, Shlema-Gersh son of Moshko (also called "Shlema-Gersha Moshkov") went missing in 1848 at the age of 62. Still in the household is his son Yankel, age 23. Yankel is married to Perlya, age 23.

It seems plausible based on names that there is a relationship between the man here called Yankel son of Shlema-Gersh Shteper, and the man called Yankel son of Shlema Shteper who is listed as a Grinshpun cousin in household #29. They do not have the same birthyear or exactly the same name so it is not clear if they are the same person.

Analysis:There are two Sherman households ( #3, #125) and one Shirman household in the revision ( #21).

The head of the household here, Khaim son of Boruch, was born in 1783 and died in 1839 at the age of 56. He is probably the father of Borukh son of Khaim who heads household (#3). Still in this household is a nephew, Yos, age 16. His father, Duvid, is probably a brother of Khaim, the head of household.

It seems they may all be related through Aizik Gekhtman who is listed here alone in household #126. He was head of household but passed away in 1838 at the age of 56.

127 VORTSEL Haya Shmil-Leib townsman 1846 1834 1850 4 daughter of Shmil-Leib Leibov Feygya female

Analysis: This is the only household with the surname "Vortsel." There are two "Vertsel" households and it is possible that the head of household here is a brother of the head of household #88. There the head of household is son of Gersh-Leib. Here the head of household is son of Leib and has a brother named Gershko. But this is just a loose connection and not certain.

Here Shlema Shmil son of Leib (also called "Shlema-Shmil Leibov" or just "Shlema-Leibov") is listed as head of household. He died in 1839 at the age of 39. His widow Haya-Feiga, age 22, is still in the household with their son, Shlema-Shmil, age 12.

Also present in the household is Shlema-Shmil's brother, Shmil Leib (also called "Shmil Leib Leibov"), age 31, his wife Feiga (not to be confused with Haya-Feiga) age 28,and their two daughters, Shifrya, age 6 and Haya, age 4.

128 | 26 GRINSHPUN Sheindlya-Sura Avrum-Duvid townsman 1837 1834 newborn 1851 14 sister of Srul-Moisha Avrum-Duvidov female

Analysis: This is the eighth of the ten Grinshpun household listed in this revision (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142). It seems likely this head of household, Froim-Favish son of Wolf, is a sibling of Berko-Aizyk son of Wolf in household #131. It seems relevant that Froim-Favish here went missing in the same year that Berko-Aizyk is listed on the run there. The name Favish appears in other Grinshpun households and may suggest other connections to those families that are not self-evident.

Froim-Favish went missing in 1845 at the age of 31. His brother Avrum-Duvid, age 37, is still present in the household with his wife, Enta, age 36, I

129 | 27 SHENKER Reyza Itsko townsman 1837 1834 1851 14 sister of Yoikhina Itskov female

Analysis: This is the first of two Shenker households ( #129, #132) in this revision. There is no apparent relationship between them.

Here in the 1850 revision, there is only one member listed: Itsko son of Berko (also called "Yoikhin? Itskov"), the head of household, passed away in 1838 at the age of 62. He was born in 1776.

In the 1851 revision, three other family members appear. A young male is present: Yoikhina son of Itsko, age 13. The fact that his father's name is Itsko suggests he may be the son of the deceased head of household. His age of 13 suggests he was born in 1838 the year his father died. Nothing is specified under "Relation" which seems to be in keeping with the 1851 supplements do not list a relationship for the first person in the household. We can speculate that Yoikhina was born the same year Itsko died. With him are two of his sisters, Dvoira, age 16, and Reyza, age 14. His mother and another brother appear in the 1858 revision.

131 GRINSHPUN Berko-Aizyk Wolf townsman 1825 1841 16 on the run 1845 1850 not indicated head of family male

Analysis: This is the ninth Grinshpun household listed in this revision (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142).

Berko-Aizyk, son of Wolf, is possibly a sibling of Froim-Faivish son of Wolf and his brother Avrum David, who are listed in household #128. Berko-Aizyk is the only one listed in this household and he was on the run to avoid conscription as of 1845 at the age of 20.

132 SHENKER Maria not indicated townsman 1814 1834 1850 36 wife of Shaya Yudkov male

Analysis: This is the second of two Shenker households ( #129, #132) which have no apparent relationship. This household comprises a husband and wife. Shaya son of Yudko (also called "Shaya Yudkov") is 31 and head of household. His wife, Maria, is age 36. This is one of the only couples in the revision where the wife is older than the husband.

133 | 28 FISHMAN Beniumin-Mikhel Joseph townsman 1836 1834 newborn 1851 15 son of Joseph [Mikhelov] male

Analysis: This is the sixth of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, household #53, household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). There is no self-evident connections between this one and the others.

In 1850, only Joseph son of Mikhel was listed and he was missing as of 1846 at the age of 34. He reappears by the 1851 supplement (#28) and is now listed as 38. In the supplement he also has a 15-year-old-son, Beniumin-Mikhel, who was born in 1836.

It seems possible the young man here named Beniumin-Mikhel is the grandfather of Moishe Fishman, the ancestor of the Fishman family from Mlynov. Moishe was born in about 1873. He named his eldest son, Benjamin, which could easily been for his grandfather.

134 | 29 GEKHTMAN Shprintsa Avrum-Ber townsman 1845 1834 1851 6 sister of Yankel-Wolf Avrum-Berov female

Analysis: This is the first of three Gekhtman households:household #73, household #126, household #134. It seems they may all be related through Aizik Gekhtman who is listed alone in household #126. It seems his son Morko is head of household #73 and his son Avrum-Ber is head of this household #134.

Avrum-Ber son of Aizyk, age 36, is the only one listed in 1850 but in the 1851 supplement a number of his other family members are listed: Yankel-Wolf, age 9, is listed in the 1851 supplement as is Avrum-Ber's wife, Elka, age 30 and a daughter, Shrpintsa, age 6. Since Avrum-Ber was listed in 1850 and not the 1851 supplement, his family members are identified by their relationship to son and brother, Yankel-Wolf.

135 | 30 Gimelstein Basheva Moishe townsman 1846 1834 1851 5 sister of Yoikhin-Gdal Moishev female

Analysis: The head of the household, Moishe son of Leib, is age 33. He is the only member in the 1850 revision. Other members of his household are listed in the 1851 supplement (#30). Their surname is spelled slightly differently but the same family number shows they are members of the same family. Included in 1851 are his wife, Perlya, age 30, their son Yoikhim-Gdal, age 16, and a daughter Basheva, age 5.

The surname of this family is very similar to the surname Gimblestein of household #99. Both heads of household are sons of Leib. It seems possible they are brothers with variations in the spelling of their surnames.

Analysis: In 1850, the head of household, Gershko son of Moshko (also called "Gershko Moshkov") is listed as missing as of 1847 at the age of 14. In the 1851 supplement, he is reappears with a wife and daughter. Now he is listed as 29 with his wife Metya, age 24. It appears they got married in the last few years and have a two-year-old daughter, Hana.

Analysis: This is the first of two Vertsel households (household #88, household #137). There is no obvious relationship between these two households.

Azriel son of Moshko (also called "Azriel Moshkov"), age 22 is the head of household. Also present in the household is his wife, Dvoira, age 20, and a daughter who is a newborn. There is no obvious connection between this household and the other Vertsel household (#88).

Analysis: This is the last of seven Fishman households listed in the revision (household #33, (household #53), household #65, household #86, household #121, household #133, household #138). There is no self-evident connections between this one and the others.

Here the head of household is Khaim son of Froim (also called "Khaim Froimov"), age 32. Also present is his wife, Leya, age 29, and son Avrum-Moshko, age 10.

139 BUKHGALTER Fayvel-Aizyk Wolf townsman 1805 1805 1834 29 1850 45 head of family male

139 BUKHGALTER Malka Fayvel-Aizyk townsman 1834 1834 1850 16 daughter of Faivel-Aizik Volfov Gitlya female

Analysis: This is the second of two Bukhgalter households (household #51 and household #139).

It seems likely that the head of household here, Fayvel-Aizyk, is the brother of the former head of household #51, Yudko-Aizik, since both are sons of Wol Bukhgalter. It seems reasonable to suppose that they lived in the same household until the brothers each married and set up separate households. This is one of the few times in the census, we can see evidence of a single household breaking into two. Many other households have brothers and their wives and children living together under one roof.

Here, Fayvel-Aizyk son of Wolf (also called Faivel-Aizik Volfov) is 45, married to Gitlya, age 41, and has a daughter, Malka, age 16 and a son Shmil-Lutser, also age "16.25." It is not clear if Malka and Shmil-Lutser are twins or there is some other explanation for the fact they both were born in approximately the same year.

There was a family named Lerner in Mlynov and it is possible they were descendants of this Lerner family.

142 GRINSHPUN Fayvel Lemel townsman 1811 1811 1834 1850 39 head of family male
142 GRINSHPUN Tovia Fayvel townsman 1834 1834 newborn 1850 16 son of Faivel Lemelev Malka male
142 GRINSHPUN Malka not indicated townsman 1814 1834 newborn 1850 36 wife of Faivel Lemelev female

Analysis:This is the tenth Grinshpun household listed in this revision (#29, #40, #41, #64, #72, #83, #103, #120, #131, #142).

The head of household here, "Fayvel son of Lemel," is very probably the son of the man named Lemel Grinshpun who is head of household #29. In fact that Lemel is himself called a son of Favish, who was probably a grandfather of the Fayvel who is named here. Tying together earlier analyses, we can conclude that households #29, #41, #64 were brothers and sons of Faivish and this household is headed by a grandson.

Summary of Grinshpun head of households

household #29, Lemel son of Faivish
household #40 Itsko-Ber son of Yoina
household #41 Shevel son of Faivish
household #64 Mordko son of Faivish
household #72 Itsko son of Vigdor
household #83 Fayvel son of Gerts
household #63 Itsko son of Vigdor
household #120 Moishe Aron son of Khaim
household #128 Froim-Favish son of Wolf
household #131 Berko-Aizyk son of Wolf
household #142 Fayvel son of Lemel

The oldest Grinsphun ancestor appears to have been a man named Faivish Grinsphun. Three of the households appear to be led by his sons and their families: Lemel (#29) (1788-1850), Shevel (#41) (1793–alive in 1850), Mordko #64 (1801–missing in 1849). In addition, Lemel had a son named Fayvel who appears in a separate household (#142) (1811–still alive in 1850) and is probably the grandson of Faivish.

It is very possible that the other Grinsphun households are also related to those just mentioned but the precise relationships are not obvious.

Two households appear to be led by the sons of Vigdor Grinshpun: Itsko #72 (1817–still alive in 1850), and Itsko #63 (1819-1837).

Two other households appear to be led by sons of a man named Wolf Grinsphun: Froim-Faivish (#128) (1813–missing in 1845) and Berko Aisyk (#131) (1825–on the run in 1845). The remaining households are led by Itsko-Ber (1800–1849) son of Yoina (#40), Fayvel son of Gerts (#83) (1811–still alive in 1850), and Moishe Aron (18011840) son of Khaim (#120).

A photo of a Grinshpun family in Mervits appears in the Mlynov-Mervits Memorial volume, 473 original, [English volume, p. 465] and probably were descended from one of these 1850 Grinshpun households. The head of that later Grinshpun household was an older man remembered as "Motel Tesler," the first man killed by the Nazis. Two of his children survived and migrated to Cleveland.

143 STEINSHNART Malka Moshko townsman 1790 1834 1850 60 not indicated female

Analysis: The head of household, Yankel son of Meyer (also called "Yankel Meyerov") died in 1848 at the age of 37. The same year his older brother, Moshko, went missing at the age of 39. His younger brother, Itsko, age 39, is still present in the household with a son Avrum-Meyer, age 5.

Also present in the household are Yankel's daughters, Ester, age 22, and Leya, age 16. Ester is one of the older single women still in her parents household in this revision.

There are also three granddaughters of Malka Moshkova present in the household, Pesya-Haya, age 16, Freyda-Beylya, age 14, and Serlya, age 12. Malka Moshkova, their grandmother, is also present and has the surname Steinshnart. She is 60 was born in 1790. Since she has a different surname, it seems probable that she is the sister of Yankel's father and married a man named Steinshnart who is no longer alive.
