    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. Website of Peter Bruce Herzenberg of London, England (since relocated to South Africa). Website is no longer functioning as of 7 Aug 2007. Copies of much of his data from the website in my possession. He indicates references by codes, which pertain to the original source and file held in his database, which I have not seen. I have no key to the sources except HL is Leonardo Herzenberg, HG is Gail Herzenberg, PC is probably Piltene Cemetery records, LA is probably Latvian Archives, FA is probably Aleksandrs Feigmanis (Latvian researcher hired by Harold Hodes), and YL is Len Yodaiken (Israeli researcher hired by Harold Hodes); however, he lists the main researchers and their contributions in a lengthy report which I include in full in the notes of the earliest Herzenberg of this database. In regards to this individual:
      HG016 shows Lydia Reyvid, d. aprox. 1920.

      2. 22 Aug 2009 Ron Lapid wrote: My grand mother's sister Lydia/Liba Raivid married Adolph (Abraham Elchanan) Herzenberg. They had three sons: Leo, Gabriel Willy and Irving Herzenberg. They were first cousins of my late father. Leo had a daughter Lilly. Lilly married Julius Farkas and they had a son Daniel. I am in close contact with Dani, and in fact he and his wife Dalia had dinner here last night. On Dani's behalf I am extending my efforts
      beyond the descendants of Adolph and Lydia.
      I received a subsequent email from Ron dated 24 Aug 2009 stating: "My family ties to the Herzenbergs only go back to Adolphe (Avraham Elchanan) Herzenberg (abt. 1879 - Dec. 1941) who married Lydia/Liba Reyvid (abt 1879-abt 1925). Lydia was the siter of my grandmother Grune Reuvid. The surname has many spelling variations, the main one being "Raivid"."

      3. From Ron Lapid's email dated 3 Aug 2010 (Ron's ancestor was the sister to Lydia Raivid):
      "Since we corresponded I have added some information to my data base on the Herzenbergs. I have concentrated on the descendants of Adolphe & Lydia Herzenberg, where my direct connection with the Herzenbergs begins. Lydia (nee Raivid) was a sister of my grandmother Gruna Reuvid. (On leaving Lithuania the Raivid name took on many different spellings.). As far as we know, Lydia was the only of the 8-10 siblings that moved to Latvia..."
      "Lydia (Liebe)5 Raivid (Dov (Ber/Berel) Zussman4, Abram3, Yankel2, Abram1) was born Abt. 1879, and died 08 Sep 1926 in Liepaja. She married (ADOLPH) AVRAHAM ELCHANAN Herzenberg, son of HIRSCH Herzenberg and LINA KRAMER. He was born Abt. 1870 in Aizpute or Grobin, Courland, and died Dec 1941 in Holocaust, Riga. Daughter of Ber Sussman Reyvid. Lived in Libau, 14 Petrovskaya Street. (Source: research done for us by Lena Pol in Riga- 2009) Burial: Libau cemetery. Date of death 29 Elul 5686. Children of Lydia Raivid and (ADOLPH) Herzenberg are:
      i. LEON "LEO" "ARIEH"6 Herzenberg, b. 04 Jan 1899, Latvia; d. 06 Mar 1971, Tel Aviv, Israel.
