Jews in Trans-Baikal: Chita
JEWS IN TRANS-BAIKAL
According to an encyclopedia article, (by M.V. Zaytsev and
Elena Shvets) “Jews in Transbaikalia” at: http://ez.chita.ru/encycl/person/?id=1943,
the first Jewish settlers were merchants, farmers, and convicts. Information is
based on memoirs of the Decemberists (participants in an army-led revolt in Imperial Russia that occurred in December, 1825).
The area was attractive to Jews because of the “…absence of
anti-semitism, liberal laws and benefits in the trading activities in contrast
to life in the European part of Russia….”
Some of the prominent individuals from Chita were:
Kitayevichi
Samsonovichi
Novomeysky
Kleimany
Zazovsky
Schlesinger/Shlezingery
Pomusy
Israel/Izrailevy
Andoverovy
Lieberman
Rify
J.D. Frizer
I.M Itskovich
J.E. Gobernik (a community leader)

1925 LIST OF USSR MEDICAL DOCTORS: FEMALE DOCTORS (continued #2)
The 1925 LIST OF USSR MEDICAL DOCTORS (in Russian) was published by the Public Health Commissariat.
A partial roster of female doctors who were (or may have been) Jewish follows. There are many more individuals than I could possibly publish here. It was unclear to me whether the locations mentioned after each name were the individuals’ places of origin, where their medical studies took place, or where they practiced medicine at the time the list was created. There were many misprints/misspellings--the information below is as written.
