VILNIUS JEWISH MERCHANTS (#2)
(from Vilnius
Jewish Merchants, 1801-1861, Aelita Ambruleviciute, 2012)
The
information was based on documents from the Lithuanian State Historical
Archive, merchant certificates compiled by the Duma of the city (1809-1861),
1801 customs book, and other resources.
According to the book, the birth
date may not always be accurate, in which case, two or three possibilities are
offered. There is a variation of name spelling as well.
Merchants who received special
consideration as “honorary citizen, exempted them from poll taxes
and permitted them to run for public offices, etc. Additionally, they were
allowed to ride in carriages, visit the tsar’s court, carry a court sword,
live in Moscow and St. Petersburg, and be exempted from military duty. (A. Ambruleiciute).
The list only includes family members living in the same
residence, and therefore, does not necessarily reflect the complete family
composition.
This is only a partial list!!
s.=son(s) a. grandson; granddaughter
d.=daughter(s) ss. sister(s)
m.=mother b.=brother(s)
gm.=grandmother
“noble”
goods: items designed for the nobility class (ex. silk, wool, cotton, baize,

peas, mushrooms, dried plums, olives, halva, etc.”
