Thank you to Lois and Erica.

It is 3:10 in the morning, time to go to sleep.
I will attempt to follow the instructions tomorrow.
Wish me luck.

I hope you do not mind my adding Raul Hilberg's name in Hebrew and more in Hebrew under About. I found out he had a daughter Dvora who lived in Jerusalem (Haaretz 2012) and added her to his Tree but am not sure which of his two partners was the mother.

It says in The Guardian from 24.9.2007 that both children (Devorah and David) were from his first marriage.

Agradeço a todos pelas contribuições e homenagem a esta homem notavel Raul Hilberg!
Shavua Tov!

Last night I tried to go to sleep very late, but was too wound up and two more hours passed before I finally drugged my body to bed.

I already knew then of the formation of a small tree related to Raul Hilberg, and imagine my surprise that we are already connected to the WORLD TREE.
Job well done everyone, especially the two Curators Erica Howton and Itai Hermelin.

You people did not give me the opportunity to follow Private User"s instructions, but they'll come handy for some other opportunity.

Hi Raul!

I think that this is a stellar idea! Very good of you to bring this up.

My thoughts are that since it was your initiative, and YOU would have greater ease at facilitating further inquiries about this topic I do believe you should be the one initializing it! I understand what you meant by should you have been in the know-how you might have gone ahead on your own, and may I therefore suggest getting customer service support on this? I do not know how to begin but hopefully this is possible to get help from the company!

On another matter, my own queries have yet to be answered by Ĝeni and am wondering I maybe my question might be answered by you until someone directly from Ĝeni might respond (if at all) if you have the slightest idea where to begin?

I discovered that I was related to the late great Head Rabbi (Germany) during laye 16th to early 17th centuries called Juda Mehler!

I did succeed to begin to communicate with one of his descendants but wish to be connected with additional family members of his because I wish to become a Rabbi like he did and posthumously to have him as my role model, finding out more about his personal likes and dislikes, and any pertinent info that might be helpful!

Please assist in any way possible. I appreciate any advice please and let us keep in touch.

Happy 2022!

Thanks for responding. My direct email address is

Blessings,

Dear Janine Laura / Hana-Liora Inwald Percik Handler Bronson, I read your message, I think you meant me but in error wrote Raul.

I believe that you should direct your question to the Curators, and I also believe there is a discussion meant just for that.
Since I was barred from this forum for some years, I did not immerse myself in learning more about it, since I could not participate.

Dear Erica Howton, I found the following Birth entry on JRI Poland, and I have a hunch that Schachter Henryk may be her sibling, but from a different mother:

SCHÄCHTER Hernryk B 6

Podzameczek


Chaim
Estera Freida BLATT Born as Hersch Schechter. Change the name from Hersch on Henryk and spelling the surname Schechter on Schächter by the decision of the Tarnopolskie Provincial Office of 24 January 1939.

By the way, the previous information is from BUCZACZ.

I was also surprised to learn that his profile was not on Geni. The Unversity of Vermont was his professional home for decades. I used to see him walking up the hill to work on many mornings.

Daniel:All: Thank you fior this. I discovered Professor Hillberg when I watched Claude Lanzmann's "Shoah." His interviews are devastating. His book "Perpetrators, Victims and Bystanders." He is one of our gems (as is Lanzmann).

I am sending anyone who watches Shoah and/or reads the above hugs and love in advance; I kid you not when I say that I still get emotional thinking about what these two men found.

Adding Dr. Hillberg's profile is a Mitzvah.

PS: I wish we had a function for leaving a virtual stone for those profiles we would like to honor. Maybe one day!

We are very lucky. ❤️
