• Notes

  RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. Ancestry.com's "Latvia: Courland Registers and Family Lists, 1845-1874" in partnership with JewishGen lists the following from Piltene. The information tentatively would indicate Levin had a son Joseph whose wife was Jette from the two entries below, which has a shared family and tax number (see notes of father Levin for more context): A. Jossel Herzenberg, age 40 in 1871, b. abt 1831, registration town Piltene, father Levin, Recruit's Enlistment register, Fond #630, family number 54, Oklad (tax reference) # 232. B. Jette Herzenberg, 1871, registration town Piltene, Recruit's Enlistment register, Fond #630, family number 54, Oklad (tax reference) # 232. 2. The Latvian Archives is online and I have reviewed all Registers for Pilten. Registers are in German and I indicate what I don't understand. I extracted all Herzenbergs of which the following excerpts apply to this family: "<http://www.lvva-raduraksti.lv/en/menu/lv/13/ig/13/ie/5507/book/30316.html> -Image 224. Has two columns of ages after the name with the first being 1858 and the second 1871; presumably if missing in the second column then probably deceased in the interim.
