Catching up - Salakas town plan 1901

In March 2009 qualified donors received a 1901 town plan of Salakas showing owners of every lot in the town at 7 MB size. The quality of the plan is terrific: print it in colour on A3 and it would look good framed on the wall. The snapshot here does not do it justice.

The plan shows the lot numbers and the names of all the Jewish owners of land and buildings - and all the communal properties.

Compare the pictures to the contemporary satellite view from google http://tinyurl.com/ab5beff - the accuracy is remarkable.

The lists of owners includes:

ARNIST, ASANOVICH, AVERBUKH, AZHINSKY, BAK, BARAKOVSKY, BARST, BEGAM, BEKER, BERMAN, BICHIK, BLEKHMAN, BLEYMAN, BLOSHTEYN, BRAUDO, BRAVO, BRIND, BRINKER, BYK, DEYCH, DUBINOVSKY, EPSHTEYN, EVELSON, EYDELMAN, FELMAN, FRIDLIAND, GADON, GAMBURG, GARBER, GELMAN, GELPERIN, GINDEN, GINDIN, GINZBURG, GLEZER, GLUSHAK, GOLIAND, GORDON, GUTERMAN, IOFE, ITSIKSON, KAGAN, KAMZUL, KARASIN, KATS, KHAIT, KHARMATS, KHAYT, KLAVER, KOPILOVSKY, KORB, KRUZ, KUPERMAN , KUSLEN, LEVIN, LIBERMAN, LIMOVICH, LOPEYKO, LUBOCHKA, MALEROVICH, MALEROVICH , MARGOLIS, MILER, MORDKHOVICH, NEKHEM, OBUZ, OLD CEMETERY , PLOTKA, PODVICH, RAKHMAN, RIFKIND, RIMER, RITS, RITVA, ROKHMAN, ROZENBERG, RUBINSHTEYN, SEGAL, SHAPIRO, SHER, SHERMAN, SHEYNES, SHLIAKHTER, SHMIT, SHTEYN, SHUR, SOLTAN, STRASHUN, SYNAGOGUE, TARN, TEYKHMAN, TSIBEL, TSINMAN, WULFSON, YUDELEVICH, ZAK, and ZURAT,
