I am registered with the Anthony Nolan Bone Marrow Trust here in England. Last year I was selected as a potential bone marrow donor and I ma happy to report that so far my donation (to an unknown recipient) has proved successful. I continue to do all I ca to promote the work of bone marrow donation agencies and your situation will ensure that I urge as many people as possible to register as potential donors. I sincerely pray that someone, somewhere will be able to perform the same mitzvah that as I was able to and to give you what is effectively a gift of life. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Learned of the drive through Ruth Saltzman who is a third or fourth cousin. She is 82 and I am 46. I am a Bornstein through my mother's side. Her mother was Elka (Alice) Bornstein, sister or Barnard and Abe.. Elka married David Speizman and had 6 childr n (Morris, Max, George, Betty, Dorothy and my mother Freida) All are deceased except Dorothy who lives in Atlanta Georgia. Morris gained much success in textiles through his business, Speizman Industries, in Charlotte North Carolina. The family moved from Wilksbury, where they owned textiles, to Central Florida and invested in the Citris Industry. I am more than glad to assist by being tested if you have not yet found a suitable donar. Unfortunately, my sister, Deborah, died a 45 of breast cancer. Hope a donar is found. Sincerely, Laura

My family roots are Parisers & Friedmans from Ptchemesh, Poland and Steinbergs, Liebowitz, Rothmans from Romania--so probably we're not related. My college roommate is Ellie Sosne--her father is Jack Sosne, Birch Drive, Roslyn, NY; maybe Sosne used to e Sosna.

A few people contacted my family, but unfortunately I do not believe we are related. My grandfather Sam Bornstein, was born in Garwolin, Poland, and came to the U.S.A., after living in Lodz, Poland. He lived in Paterson. His original last name was Bur ztyn, which was changed when he came to the U.S.A.. My mother is actually from the town of Belchatow and we went over the list of names. Unfortunately we are not related to any of the families nor was my mother familiar with any of those names. There a e (were) 2 other Bornstein families in Fair Lawn, that came from Paterson. One was Julian and Marge Bornstein, both of whom are no longer alive. Julian's father's name was Max Bornstein and he was from Lodz. Julian Bornstein was a founding member of th Fair Lawn Jewish Center and we checked with the synagogue, but they were already contacted and Julian Bornstein's family was not related. The other Bornstein family came from Europe after world war II. We also knew of Rabbi Bornstein. Unfortunately I an not tell you any more about him than your other postings. My mother also contacted the Belchatower society, but has not heard back from them. Good luck with your search and I am sorry that I cannot help you. Martin Bornstein, Fair Lawn, N.J.

When I was growing up in Edison, NJ, there was a family named Bornstein, Holocaust survivors from Poland, whose children went to Hebrew school with me. The father's name may have been Simon, the mother's may have been Phyllis, the daughters (probably now arried) were Judith and Rose. I now live overseas and cannot contact them for you, but you may want to follow this up as a possible source of donors. Best of luck to you. Also, my own marrow was typed years ago in the US - I believe for the Alison Atlas marrow search. Are those records still on file? If not, I will have my marrow retyped and reregistered upon my next trip to Israel (I am in an underdeveloped country and ca not be tested here).

I did not know the names of the others involved in this great effort to help save my brother's life, as well as the lives of countless oth rs. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the following people from the bottom of my heart. They are: Stanley Diamond of Montreal, Shirley Flaum of Houston, Roni Seibel Leibowitz of Scarsdale NY, and Philip Lazar of Skokie Illinois. You cannot im gine how much your work is being appreciated. Thanks again, Jodi Bornstein

My Borensteins were born in Sochaczew. Some of them lived for a time in Warszawa and possibly Glowno. We are also Levis, so maybe that will help narrow the search pool. Our prayers are with you and your family.

My mother's family came from Rovno. Half of her family made it out prior to the holocaust and half stayed behind and were lost. Their names were Gebiner, and Gam. I would be glad to be tested to see if I can be a match for anyone. I will contact our local testing agency.

Dear Ada and others, Although it is sadly true that many of the extended BORNSTAJN family, Jeff's ancestors, were killed in the Holocaust, his great grandparents, Icek Mendel BORNSTAJN (Max) and Hanna (Hinda) HERSHCOWITZ left Lodz, Poland before the war and died in Paterson, J. They had many children who went to places in the US and Canada. This is only one of the branches of Jeff's family we are seeking. We have already heard from people in this forum as well as at the old guest book site who are connected with this famil . Many have already agreed to be tested. All those sharing the surnames listed on the webpage are urged to be tested as potential donors. In fact, why not ALL volunteer for this simple blood test? There are many others out there waiting for bone marro transplants. Thanks, Ada, for all your research and communication aimed at reaching our goal. I'm optimistic that we will. Yours, Roni (Mrs Roni Seibel Liebowitz) Coordinator, Belchatow Shtetl CO-OP Initiative; Town Leader, Belchatow project for indexing records in Poland, Jewish Records Indexing-Poland (JRI-Poland)

I just sent the following message to Belchatow researchers and some SIGs. I don't know if it will help. My prayers to your recovery. Ada ~~~~~~~~~~~ Shalom, I am very sad. I think nearly all the potential bone marrow donors for Jeff Bornstein were killed in Holocaust. In Chelmno stands a giant monument, near the new memorial monument of Gombin (my parents' shtetl) - the monument for the 4953 Jewish victims of Belchatow, murdered by the Germans during WWII, as the rest of the Warthegau district, in Chelmno, first total extermination camp. There are also the names of the victims on the monument, on 8 impressive memorial plaques. Usually just the name of the head of the family. I was there twice. The last time was August this year. I took a picture of each side of the monument, to capture all the names - now 8 photographs covering 16 coulmns with names engraved in Hebrew. I had no idea of Jeff Bornstein when I did that. It was for Roni Liebowitzh and for his planned web site for shtetl Belchatow. I posted the 8 pictures with the names (16 columns) and the names I transcribed from the photographs at my new web page: http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/4017/belchato/belchato.htm There are, among the thousands victims, also all Jeff Bornstein's potential bone marrow donors, Hy"d: BORENSTEIN Aharon Pinchas and his family BORENSTEIN Alter and his family BORENSTEIN David and his family BORENSTEIN Haim Meir and his family BORENSTEIN Yeshayahu and his family HERSZKOWICZ Herszel and his family LIBERMAN Abraham and family LIBERMAN Aharon and family LIBERMAN Henoch and family LIBERMAN Herszel and family LIBERMAN Jakob Ber and family LIBERMAN Jona and family LIBERMAN Josef Meir and family LIBERMAN Meir and family LIBERMAN Moshe and family LIBERMAN Noach and family LIBERMAN Pinchas Meir and family LIBERMAN Szmuel Zwjnweil and family LICHTENSZTEJN Szalom and family I take this opportunity to call you all again to check the Bornstein Web site and see if you are a possible relative, thus fit to save the life of young Jeff Bornstein: http://www.geocities.com/seflaum/Bornstein.html Thank you, shalom Belchatow...
