In a message dated 12/11/2010 9:57:49 A.M. Central Standard Time, :

good Morning Jeff. Thank you for you kind note. I love reading your blog and have told so many of my friends about you and your family.

I feel your frustration at not being able to translate Gottlober's books. My knowledge of Yiddish is confined to phrases and curses. It's so helpful when I want to express my annoyance but dont want the other person to understand. It's such a colorful language..

Yiddish Glossary - The Gantseh Megillah

The above glossary wont allow you to translate but it's funny to read and will give you a sweet insight into the Ashkenazi culture.

I also started to realize that our family might have originally come from Germany. My mother's maternal grandfather was Wolf Gottlieb. He had a son,but there are no traces of that son or his descendants.

I will continue my quest to find you a translator for the books. Have a very Happy Holiday season.

Susan



Susan, Yes, I will stay in contact with R. What do you think would happen in I took a word or letter that is written in Hebrew and translated it to German or Hebrew, then translated it to English? Is that possible? In the book by Aaron Lansky that is how they learned Yiddish, I think. I got the idea by looking at the website you sent

Yiddish Glossary - The Gantseh Megillah . I took German for a half of semester back in college, so I know what German looks like and a lot of the phrases are in German with some Hebrew mixed in. The Hebrew sticks out like a sore thumb so I would have to then translate the Hebrew word for word. still, could that be done? Plus, dont they read Hebrew backwards on the page? G-d must be laughing so hard he is peeing his pants! Anyway, after a while wouldn't a lot of words start to repeat? And what about Russian. Isn't the fact that Abraham Baer Gottlober is from Russia going to mean there is Russian mixed in, or is the fact that his name is Gottlober mean that their family is from Germany and that his language is this German/Hebrew mix and that there wouldn't be much Russian. In fact wouldn't that insure that no Russian would ever know what he was saying?

With a name like Gottlieb he was probably from Germany, I would think. Have you ever put your information in the familytreemaker program and seen what is already out there as far as family trees? It might give you clues although Wolf Gottlieb is a common name by itself, but matched with your Grandmothers name you might find something. I use it occasionally but you have to be careful because not all of the information is correct. I might help you get started though.

Thanks for sending the glossary. Jeff Goodlove



A Freemason Story…

Das Vergissmeinnicht

The Forget-Me-Not

The RSHA (Reich Security Main Office) was created by Heinrich Himmler on September 22, 1939. The first director of RSHA was SS Obergruppenfuhrer Reinhard Heydrich. Prior to appointment Heydrich was in charge of the Gestapo in 1936. Himmler often referred to him as the “Genghis Khan” of his staff.

Under the direction of these men millions of people were imprisoned or executed for being enemies of the Fatherland and Nazism.

Included among these so called “enemies were Jews, Gypsies and other racially undesirables, as well as Communists and other secret organization members such as Freemasons. The preserved records of the Reich Security Main Office stand to attest the persecution of the Freemasons. Written records were overseen by professor Franz Six who was responsible for “ideological tasks” by which meant the creation of anti-Semitic and anti-Masonic propaganda.

While the number is not accurately known it is estimated that between 80,000 and 200,000 Freemasons were killed under the Nazi Regime. Masonic Concentration Inmates were graded as political prisoners and wore an upside down red triangle.

The Forget Me Not was first used in 1926 by the German Grand Lodge of the Sun as a Masonic Emblem at the annual convention in Bremen, Germany. [1]

As early as the year 1934, soon after Hitler’s rise to power, it became apparent Freemasonry was in danger. In the same year, the German Grand Lodge of the Sun in Bayreuth (one of the pre-war German Grand Lodges), realized the imminent problems facing them and elected to wear a little blue flower, the Forget-Me-Not, in lieu of the traditional Square and Compasses, as a mark of identity for Masons. It was felt the new symbol would not attract attention from the Nazis, who were in the process of confiscating and appropriating Masonic Lodges and property. Masonry had gone underground and it was necessary that the Brethren have some readily recognizable means of identification. [2]

In 1938 the same factory that made the Masonic forget-me-not pins was chosen by a Nazi charitable organization which collected money so that other funds could be freed up for rearmament. This coincidence allowed Freemasons to wear the Forget-me-not badge as a secret sign of membership. [3]

The Badge is now worn by Freemasons around the world to remember all those who have suffered in the name of Freemasonry, especially those during the Nazi era. [4]



This Day…

December 13, 1730: John Cale, born April 19, 1726, died July 26, 1797; married July 25 1751 to Elizabeth Pugh, born December 13, 1730 in Frederick Co., Va., died September 14, 1796.

Daughter, Elizabeth Cale, born 1759, died 1821. Was married, 1782, to George Nicholas Spaid, born Dec. 22, 1759, died June 15, 1833.[5]

December 13, 1775: Robert Hanna started the town bearing his name along the Forbes Road in 1769, after he had purchased the military title from Lieutenant-Colonel John Wilkins, in command at Fort Pitt during the summer of 1768, and who had purchased the earlier military title of Jacob Meyers. He first built a commodious log hotel for the entertainment of strangers and travelers along the Forbes Road, which was afterwards transformed into Westmoreland County’s first courthouse. As indicating his farsightedness, and the intended size of the place, his deed to John Jack on December 13, 1775, conveys a lot in Hannastown, marked on the general plan of said town as No. 115, bounded on the west by No. 33, on the east by Penn Street, on the south by Thompson Street, which is fifty feet front and two hundred forty feet back. By another deed a few years later he sold two lots sixty feet front each “on the Great Road opposite the spring,” to the later Justice Charles Foreman, and upon this site a hotel was built. While some writers try to minimize Hannastown, with its thirty or more log dwellings, we can well compare it with the observations of Colonel George Washington when he came through in 1770 and found at Fort Pitt about twenty log houses ranged along the Monongahela inhabited by Indian traders. The habitations of Hannastown were peopled by a determined type of pioneers who came to build up the country and carve out their beautiful homes all about. Its very location on the highlands between the waters of the Allegheny and the Monongahela, removed a day’s journey from the seat of trading at Fort Pitt, yet on the commercial highway of its day, the Forbes Road, made it a fit place for calm deliberation and judicial poise. [6]

December 13, 1777: Major Georg Henrich Pauli, Hessan Field-Artillery Corps, assigned to the Grenadier Battalion von Linsing, and a veteran of the Seven Years’ War. Of his conduct General von Knyphausen wrote on December 13, 1777: “He has taken to drinking so much that he is frequently unfit for duty” [7]

Daughter, Elizabeth Cale, born 1759, died 1821. Was married, 1782, to George Nicholas Spaid, born December 22, 1759, died June 15, 1833.

Their son, Michael Spaid, born October 1, 1795, in Hampshire County, Virginia, died March 26, 1872, in Buffalo, Ohio. Was married to Margaret ("Peggy") Godlove (Gottlieb), daughter of George Godlove, German lineage, born August 13, 1792, Hampshire County WV, died August 30, 1873 in Buffalo, Guernsey County, Ohio.[8] They were Lutherans and Democrats. Eight children. She had to the last the Virginia accent and kindly ways. [9]
