Philly 2009: Suchostaw Region meeting, August 4

An annual conference event is the Suchostaw Region Research Group (SRRG) meeting for descendants of this shtetl - where my FINK family lived.

My grandfather, Shaye (Sidney), was born in Romanowe Siolo, some of his siblings were born in Mikulince, other relatives were from Ostapie and Podhacje. Many other localities figure in the family history, including Skalat and Tarnopol.

The Philly 2009 event is set for 9.45-11am, Tuesday, August 4.

Susana Leistner Bloch, whose maternal family is also from Suchostaw, is the coordinator. If you'll be attending, let her know which shtetls you're researching as she has interesting material to bring. See the SRRG website here.

The Suchostaw SRRG includes the following administrative districts:

Borszczow - Buczacz - Czortkow - Husiatyn - Skalat - Tarnopol - Trembowla - Zbaraz - Zaleszczyki.
