Generation: 3

  1. 6.  Samuel NEMZOW was born on 17 May 1871 in Krolevets, Chernihiv, Ukraine; died on 21 Mar 1933; was buried in Woburn, Middlesex, Massachusetts, USA.

    Notes:

    The Nemzoff family (it was spelled Nemzow in Ukraine, but pronounced and therefore spelled as Nemzoff in America) was from a town pronounced Kralyevitz (actual spelling unkown) that was in the province of "Chenigeve", which is probably Chernigov, in the Ukraine, approximately 60 miles or so from Kiev. It was reportedly burned to the ground during WW2 so no longer exists. However, there are numerous towns in that area, in that province, that are spelled Krasnosil's'ke, Krasnoyil's'k, Kraslyani, Kraskivs'ke, Krasilivka, and Krasilivka. All of those have a little similarity to the pronunciation of Kralyevitz. As of 8/6/03, have been unable to find Kralyevitz on any previous WW2 maps. According to ship manifest from Zelda and children's arrival, it says they were from Krabnitz. But they boarded the ship in England, so probably the person taking their information did not understand their language and guessed at the spelling of their town name.

    Never did find Samual Nemzow's arrival to the US. According to Herbert, his Hebrew and/or yiddish name was Chaim Shmaryohu, or Chaim Shmeryl. Will wait for the Naturalization papers to come to see what information that might have. As of 8/6/03 awaiting the microfilm that has index to Naturalizations for Boston.

    Samuel married Zelde (Jennie) LEAVITT OR LEBITSKY. Zelde was born about 1877; died on 18 Jul 1945; was buried in Woburn, Middlesex, Massachusetts, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 7.  Zelde (Jennie) LEAVITT OR LEBITSKY was born about 1877; died on 18 Jul 1945; was buried in Woburn, Middlesex, Massachusetts, USA.

    Notes:

    Immigrated to America on June 30, 1906. Traveled with her children Lillian, Samual, Rose and Alice. They were listed with their Hebrew names, Salman, Rosa, Elke and Limba (not spelled correctly). The ship departed Liverpool on June 23, 1906. Zelda had $18 with her, their tickets were paid for by her husband, and they were going to meet him, Mr. S. Nemzow is how he is listed, no address given. There is a line drawn through each of their names, which sometimes indicates that they were not admitted to the US on that trip, or they did not show up at the Port of Departure at all. However, they were not found anywhere else in the Ellis Island database so this may or may not be their final trip to the United States.
