• Notes

  RESEARCH_NOTES: 1. 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/30313.html -Image 69: "Lemchen Joseph Herzenberg" is title of an entire return section at Pilten 22 Sep 1811 containing: -Lemgen Joseph Herzenberg, (no age) -his [brother?] Chonne Joseph Herzenberg, 18 [Has relational and other comments needing translation; most likely fraternal.] -his wife, Sorre, 18 -his daughter, Riffke, 1 -his mother, Taube, 60 [This is a big find - wife of the original Joseph.] -his [?] Lewin Wulf Edelstein, 17 -his wife, Schoene, 15 -Image 27.
