From Rick Brown's "History Buff" newsletter; January, 2010
Paradoxes in History
Bathing and Swmming
In the Victorian era, the medical community advised that people should not
take baths any more than once a month, and then very quickly. The belief was
that sitting in a tub of water for long periods of time would cause the
organs to become waterlogged and damaged.On the other hand, the same doctors
recommended swimming as an excellent method of exercising and improving one's
health. Go figure.
Indoor Plumbing and Kitchens
With the invention of indoor "out houses," it took generations before the
majority of the households had them. This was partly due to the cost, but
another strong factor was the concern over whether it was sanitary or not to
have toilets inside the home. When households brought the "out house" indoors,
where did they put the bathroom? Even today, many toilets are located just
off the kitchen.

------------------------
The site has the most complete inventory of Jewish record
holdings in the archives of Belarus, Lithuania, Moldova,
Poland and Ukraine. If not identified at the RTRF site, the
Jewish vital records (birth/marriage/death/divorce) likely
do not exist. The Archive Database also includes inventories
of other types of documents including census records and
family lists; recruit lists; lists of voters, taxpayers, merchants
and school records; Holocaust records (lists of victims and
survivors); immigration/migration records; land and property
records; name changes; pogrom records; local government
records (such as wills, notary records, etc.).
To search for records of a particular town, click on “Archive
Database” on the home page and then click on “Archive
Documents.” This exposes the search engine. Type the name
of the town of interest, and the next screen will display of the
types of Jewish and civil records available for that town, which
archive has the records, years available and archive file. There
are no actual surnames in this search result, but rather an
inventory of the surviving documents.
Recently RTRF has added new databases containing
information about individuals. These databases are searchable
by surname and they include:
• 1929 List of Jewish taxpayers from Pulawy, Poland (460 names)
• 1928 List of Jewish taxpayers from Krasnystaw, Poland
(560 names)
• 1936 List of Jewish taxpayers from Turobin, Poland
(121 names)
• 1990 List of burials in Beltsy Jewish Cemetery (Moldova)
(4,800 names approx) (about 1/3 of this database is complete
at this time).
• 1858 — List of heads of households in the town of Cherkassy,
Ukraine, from the Revisky Skasky/census lists (307 names)
• 1894 - 1918 Heads of Jewish families that had a status of
Meshchanin (petty bourgeois) in Odessa (4,505 names)
• List of people who died in Belogorodka, Ukraine during the
Holocaust (in Word format)
They are accessible on the same results page as a record
search. A button at the top of the page links to the database
search engine.
RTRF also has a collection of photographs and postcards for
selected towns. From the home page click on “Archive Database”
and then click on “Photographs and Postcards.” On the following
page, search for a town of interest. Images continue to be added
regularly.
