| Fortunately I could find some Tepmans from my motherīs side.I would also like to find some Ziniuks - my late fatherīs family name. All of them were born in Pinsk and only my father came to Brazil ( 1929)while his younger brother Shmariau was taken to Israel. Although I have never found any of the Ziniuks, I still hope to find any member of the the Ziniuk family. Please contact me if you have known, met, or have any information about their fate. Thank you. Mrs. Miriam Finguerman |

| My great grandmother was Golde Turkenitch although others in that family spelled in Turkenitz. Some in my family believe her line traces back to Pinsk, although there seem to be a lot of Turkenitches from Stolin, not far from Pinsk. Her parents were Israel Turkenitch and Hannah Dvorah (Lapidus). She emigrated to NYC in 1906 to join her husband David Kimmel. |

| Tourkin - Tourkenitz - Turkenich familes from Pinsk |
| Wrote by: Leah |

| I am a descendant of the Tourkenitz - Turkenich families from Pinsk. My paternal grandfather emigrated to the USA from Pinsk after the Kishinev pogrom of 1905, arriving in Baltimore, MD around 1906. His name was changed (shortened) in the USA to Tourkin . He was a professional carpenter & cabinet maker trained in Pinsk, such that he ended up building many of the 'shtieblach' & their Holy Arks in the Jewish 'ghetto' in east "Balmer" (Baltimore) almost 100 years ago (Caroline Street). Our family has Toukin males named Naftali Shlomo, David, Dov Ber, and Moshe. I have many cousins - most in the USA - with whom I'm in contact, but I'd like to meet other Tourkin - Tourkenitz - Turkenich folk from Pinsk! I immigrated to Israel over 30 years ago, so I can correspond in either English or Hebrew with fellow "Pinskers". |

I have just learned that my great grandfater, Zelman Marel ( Solomon Morrell ) may have been born in Pinsk around 1858. I will now begin the search of records to find any information I can. A recent trip to Bialystok has certainly increased my interest in visiting the area around Poland, Lithuania and Belarus.
