Hello! I am from the USA and recently found a relative by the name of Gheorge Vati who now lives in the USA. He states that his mother and sister still live in Bacau. If there is anyone who can help me, please e-mail me at Kas161@juno.com. I am very interested in my geneaology and would appreciate any information you may have.

Thank You Very Much.

Hi, my family is also from Bacau. We visited there last may and met with the president of the Jewish Comunity Center. Who was helpful in getting some additional info on my family.

Hi, Unfortunately the president of the JCC who helped me so much passed away and I have been unable to reestablish a connection. He was a wonderful man and extremely helpful. I guess the best be is to just go to the JCC and try your luck. I would be interested in hearing about your trip when you return.

There are two cemeteries you might ask the JCC to help you visit and there is a death registry that the JCC keeps. I found 35 possible family members. I photographed their head stones. The newer cemetery has a memorial to those that perished in the Holocaust and the story behind it is awful. They will tell it to you when you visit.

Have a good trip.
Barry

Surnames: Edelstein, Weiss
Looking for other relatives or ancestors of Meyer and Esther (Weiss)Edelstein who's children left from Bacau and moved to America, Canada and Israel. Not all left tho. Two of their children were born 1884 and 86.
I have an old postcard from an Adele sent to my grandfather Jacob. Is Edelstein a common name there and I'd like to know more about checking this out without traveling there.
