The Berenblut family research history
In January 1999 I visited Antwerp, Belgium, only then for the
first time I heard about
the
existence of a family branch in Paris France.
Now we had 3 Berenblut (or Berenblit) branches; From Antwerp,
London and
Paris,
but no one could tell me how they are all related.
Only
in June 2005 I finally
collected enough
documents from Warsaw and Lublin, via the great work done by jri-pl, which
shed new
light on our
family connection.
I finally found the names of our common ancestors Icek
& Elka, born
around 1805, who unite the three
branches of the family into one family.
In 2008 I found a few more descendants of Avram Hersz and Ides
Berenblut in
Warszawa.
Then, in 2009 I located the
Jablonski branch from Paris, France, and together
with
them we were able to add a new Branch (Branch-4).
In 2020-21, as more documents became available via the Internet I
found many more descendants of Icek & Elka, and in 2022 added Branches-7, 8, 9, 10 &11.
In a separate page I list a few families from the Warsaw area which are yet unconnected to ours.
Meaning of the Berenblut (or Bernblut) Family name: The exact meaning is a Bloom of a Pear tree. The Berenblit (or Berenblitt) variant of the name probably stem from the fact that in Russian the letter U is pronounced as I (Russia occupied Poland from 1864 till 1918). Our family are Cohanim, so it is not confused with the Berenblat family which are usually not Cohanim (although miss-spelling from Berenblut to Berenblat is quite common).
