• Notes

  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: HW shows Bessy Horwitz residing in Krugersdorp, SA. Elsewhere in same database shows: 416-250-7394, 640 Sheppard Ave E., North York, Toronto, ON M2K 1B8, 801-640, York, Ontariom Cananda, M5W1B3. Housewife.
