| Leben & Wirken | Millie Dworkin wanderte mit ihrer Familie um 1906 nach England aus. Die Tochter Rebecca war zum Zeitpunkt der Einreise nach England ungefähr 8-9 Monate alt, woraus sich Mai-Juni 1906 errechnet. Millie war die vorletzte ihrer Familie, die in England ankam. Ihr folgte noch die Schwägerin Rivi. Die meisten Juden, die nach einer schrecklichen Reise in England ankamen, schliefen – weil sie kaum Geld hatten – in sogenannten „Bleibehäusern” ("doss houses") was bedeutet in einem billigen Raum eine Nacht zu bleiben. Wenn es ihnen finanziell etwas besser ging, dann zogen sie weg. Einige blieben jedoch, wie z.B. Millie. Millie hatte große Schwierigkeiten sich an das Leben in England anzupassen. Sie hatte ein gutes Herz. Auch später sprach sie kaum Englisch, aber sie war mutig genug mit dem Bus kreuz und quer durch London zu fahren. 1917 ereignete sich ein dramatisches Ereignis im Leben von Millie Dvorkin. Ihr damals noch verbleibende einzig Sohn, der fünfjährige Montague wurde durch einen pferdegezogenen Milchwagen in der Christian Street überfahren und starb an seinen Verletzungen. Eine Untersuchung der Unfall wurde vorgenommen. In den Zeitungsarchiven konnte aber noch kein Artikel über den Unfall gefunden werden. Millies Sohn David war auch schon im Alter von 14 Jahren verstorben. Möglicherweise überwandt sie den Tod von Montague psychisch nicht, denn kurz danach trennte sie sich von ihrem Ehemann. Vielleicht gab es gegenseitige Beschuldigungen über den Tod von Montague. Als die Eheleute sich am 21 Jun 1917 trennten, gab es noch keine einvernehmliche Scheidensregulierung im Britischen Recht. Ehen konnten nur durch Verfehlungen, wie Ehebruch, geschieden werden. Vermutlich warf der Ehemann sie raus aus der gemeinsamen Wohnung und setzte es durch, dass er das Sorgerecht über die Kinder behielt. Was dann geschah, ist sehr spekulativ. Vermutlich lebte sie nach 1917 mit einem Abraham Sheradsky und später mit einem walisischen Kriegsveteranen namens Ernest Daniel Garland (*1882) zusammen. Beide Namen werden in der Scheidungsakte aus dem Jahr 1922 als Beklagte/Zeugen (‘co-respondents’) aufgeführt, was darauf hindeutet, in den Scheidungsfall verwickelt waren und dass Millie möglicherweise zweifachen Ehebruch begangen hatte. Ein Ehebruch fand laut Scheidungsakte z.B. am 1 Jun 1919 statt. Falls Millie weiterhin mit Ernest Daniel Garland zusammengelebt hat, dann könnte er ein potentieller Vater des Kindes Martha (Miriam Isaacs) sein. Ab 1923 fehlt dann fast jede Spur von ihr. Ihr Leben scheint sich im Nichts aufgelöst zu haben. Vermutlich wurde sie danach im Marylebone Workhouse aufgenommen. Jedes mal wenn sie ihr Enkelkind Norma bei der Familie Pruskin traf, und wenn Celia ihre Tochter Norma der Oma vorstellte, dann kniff sie Norma in die Wangen und sagte "mein Yiddishya Kinde”. Norma nannte sie "Normali” und Sonia hiess "Sonali”. Sie weinte, weil sie immer Sonia sehen wollte, aber es nie konnte. Es ist möglich, dass Becky Lubinski (Issacs zweite Frau) die Pruskins auch besuchte, aber nie gleichzeitg mit Isaacs erster Frau (d.h. Millie Dworkin) da war. Ihr Enkel Dennis Ross kommentierte, dass er sie in den Kriegsjahren 1939-1945 nie sah, aber als seine Familien dann vom Phipps House zur Western Avenue in London (1950) umzogen sah er sie häufig. Über die Jahrzehnte war er sich gar nicht bewusst, dass Millie Dworkin "verschwunden” war. Andere Enkel, die auch in London lebten, wussten nichts von ihrer Existenz. Hier ist nun in Erfahrung zu bringen, dass die erstgeborene Rebecca (1905-2005) ihre Erinnerungen an ihre Mutter noch selbst an ihren eigenen Sohn weitergab. Auch Celia (1914-1968) stellte noch ihre Kinder der Großmutter vor. Es ist wahrscheinlich, dass auch die Tochter Garry noch von Millies Existenz gewusst haben muss. Rebecca und Garry trafen sich hin und wieder, so z.B. in den 1950er Jahren, als Millie noch lebte. Hier kann man davon ausgehen, dass das Gespräch auch auf die Mutter kam. Garry hat es wohl abgelehnt etwas über die Mutter zu erfahren und hat irgendwelches Wissen dann wohl auch nicht an ihre beiden Söhne weitergegeben. Als sie älter wurde, sagte Sonia, war sie sehr arm dran, denn sie erhielt kaum eine Rente. Ihr Ex-Schwager Jack Sinaysky kümmerte sich um sie. Trotz der Armut drückte sie ihrem Enkelkind Norma immer 10 Shilling in die Hand, wenn sie das Kind sah. Das war viel Geld für ein kleines Kind. Sie erscheint in den Wahlunterlagen von 1963 als Millie Senaysky. Als ihre 92-jährige Tochter Miriam 2015 zum ersten mal ein Bild von ihr (aus 1965) in Händen hielt, kommentierte sie "Die ist aber dicker als ich!”. Sie lebte im Nightingale Balham (1962-1971) 1971 starb sie im Tooting Bec Hospital in London; Tooting Beck weist darauf hin, dass die dement war. Dieses Hospital existiert nicht mehr. Es ist nicht identisch mit dem existierenden Tooting Hospital. Nachdem das Luxborough Lodge 1965 geschlossen wurde, ging Millie vermutlich ins Nightingale Lodge. Aus ihrer Todesurkunde ist ersichtlich, dass sie dement war und keine Verwandten hatte. Obwohl ihr Leben im Tooting Bec Hospital ein trauriges Ende nahm, muss man doch erwähnen, dass sie vorher in einem Jüdischen Pflegeheim mit gutem Ruf versorgt wurde. Im September 2018 ließ ihr Enkel Dennis Ross ihren Namen auf dem Grabstein in die richtige Schreibweise „Millie Sinaysky" ändern. Bei dieser Korrektur schlich sich dann wieder ein neuer Fehler ein. Jetzt wird ihr Sterbedatum auf dem Grabstein irrtümlich mit dem „6th July 1971" angegeben, obwohl es nach Sterbeurkunde der „15th July 1971" ist. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] | |
| Leben & Wirken (Englisch) | About Glukhov In 1850 about 10,000 people of different religions lived in the town. There were 218 shops, 14 wineries, 2 hotels, 11 rental houses, 5 small factories, 22 concrete houses, 1103 wooden houses. In 1867 a concrete temple was built next to the Kiev gates. In 1898, Kiev Moscovskaya Street (the merchant street) had two synagogues. Many of the Jewish men made jewelry for Glukhov and other towns. In 1905 riots by the workers destroyed many factories and businesses. In that same year railroad workers and post office clerks also went on strike. In 1906 many small businesses closed their doors while the industrial giants created more jobs. During that period the population of Glukhov was 18,000 people. About 5,000 were Jews, 12,000 Russians, Ukranians and Byelorussians, 100 from Poland, 50 Germans and people of other origins. In 1912 the first electric station lit up Glukhov. For the first time in history, the streets of Glukhov were bright at night. In 1914 there was an epidemic which killed almost half of the town's population. Half of all newborn babies died. Before the revolution in 1917 Glukhov had a Jewish School and two synagogues. During the pograms and the revolution many people were shot by the army, both Jewish and non Jewish. After the revolution, many of the Zavelsky family left Glukhov and moved to Kharkov. At this time, the government did not allow the Jewish people to take care of the cemetery. It was not until after 1970 that the Jewish residents were allowed to take down the trees that the government had planted over the cemetery and to tend it. Now, there are a few older Jewish people who come once a month to clean the grounds, The cemetery is not taken care of by the town. In 1918 there was a Rabbi Rochavesky in Glukhov with whom the Zavelsky family had a good relationship. The Rabbi died in the 1917 revolution. Many of Glukhov's Jews left the town after the revolution and before W.W.II. In 1941 there were 500 Jewish families in the town. 1881-1916 In southern Russia, the first outbreak of pogroms in the spring of 1881 spread quickly to Chernigov province. The communities of Konotop and Nezhin were the most severely effected. Pogrom is a Russian word designating an attack, accompanied by destruction, the looting of property, murder, and rape, perpetrated by one section of the population against another. The attacks were carried out in Russia, mainly by the Christian population against the Jews between 1881 and 1921, while the civil and military authorities remained neutral and occasionally provided their cover, and even open support. The second wave of pogroms took place from 1903 to 1906. The most serious pogroms took place in Odessa and Kishinev. Altogether, pogroms were carried out in 64 towns, and several were in Chernigov. After the start of the pogroms, the exodus of Jews began from the Pale of Settlement to America, Australia, Europe, South America and Palestine. There were many reasons for this mass exodus of the Jewish population, but the official sanction of pogroms was the major cause. Mandatory military service was another reason that many young Jewish men departed from Russia. Jewish boys as young as eight or nine were forced into military service for as long as twenty-five years. To evade the draft, some boys would damage their own bodies. They would puncture their eardrums, give themselves a hernia, or chop off the finger used for firing a gun. (Quelle: http://www.ourfamilystory.net/Glukhov.html) According oficial statistic in 1866 in Gluhiv was: more than 11 thousand inhabitants (1103 homes), 11 Orthodox churches, Jewish prayer 2 schools, 4 factories (2 candle, soap and leather). Accordang census 1897 in Gluhiv was 14858 inhabitants, including 3803 Jews. After the 1921 progroms in Ukraine was no longer. (Olexa Baliura - 3 Okt 2014) | |
| Leben & Wirken (Englisch) | Millie Dworkin emigrated to England with her family around 1906. Her daughter Rebecca was about 8-9 months old at the time of entry into England, which calculates to May-June 1906. Millie was the second to last of her family to arrive in England, followed only by her sister-in-law Rivi. Most Jews, who arrived in England after a harrowing journey, slept in so-called "doss houses" due to their limited funds, which meant staying in a cheap room for a night. If their financial situation improved, they moved away, but some, like Millie, stayed. Millie had great difficulty adapting to life in England. She had a good heart. Even later, she spoke little English but was brave enough to travel across London by bus. In 1917, a tragic event occurred in Millie Dworkin's life. Her only remaining son, five-year-old Montague, was run over by a horse-drawn milk cart on Christian Street and died from his injuries. An investigation into the accident was conducted, but no newspaper article about the accident has been found in the archives. Millie's son David had also died at the age of 14. She may not have psychologically overcome Montague's death, as she separated from her husband shortly afterward. Perhaps there were mutual accusations over Montague's death. When the couple separated on June 21, 1917, there was no mutual divorce regulation in British law. Marriages could only be dissolved by transgressions, such as adultery. Probably, her husband threw her out of their shared apartment and ensured that he retained custody of the children. What happened next is highly speculative. After 1917, she probably lived with an Abraham Sheradsky and later with a Welsh war veteran named Ernest Daniel Garland (*1882). Both names are listed in the 1922 divorce file as defendants/witnesses ('co-respondents'), suggesting that they were involved in the divorce case and that Millie had possibly committed adultery twice. Adultery occurred on June 1, 1919, according to the divorce file. If Millie continued to live with Ernest Daniel Garland, he could be the potential father of the child Martha (Miriam Isaacs). After 1923, almost no trace of her remains. Her life seemed to have disappeared into nothing. She was probably taken in by the Marylebone Workhouse. Every time she met her granddaughter Norma at the Pruskin family, and when Celia introduced her daughter Norma to her grandmother, she pinched Norma's cheeks and said, "my Yiddishya Kinde." Norma called her "Normali," and Sonia was "Sonali." She cried because she always wanted to see Sonia but never could. It is possible that Becky Lubinski (Isaacs' second wife) also visited the Pruskins but was never there at the same time as Isaacs' first wife (i.e., Millie Dworkin). Her grandson, Dennis Ross, commented that he never saw her during the war years 1939-1945, but when his family moved from Phipps House to Western Avenue in London in 1950, he saw her frequently. Over the decades, he was unaware that Millie Dworkin had "disappeared." Other grandchildren who also lived in London knew nothing of her existence. It is now known that the firstborn Rebecca (1905-2005) passed on her memories of her mother to her own son. Celia (1914-1968) also introduced her children to their grandmother. It is likely that the daughter Garry also knew of Millie's existence. Rebecca and Garry met occasionally, such as in the 1950s when Millie was still alive. It can be assumed that the conversation also touched on their mother. Garry probably refused to learn anything about the mother and did not pass on any knowledge to her two sons. As she grew older, Sonia said she was very poor, receiving little pension. Her ex-brother-in-law Jack Sinaysky took care of her. Despite her poverty, she always gave her granddaughter Norma 10 shillings when she saw her. That was a lot of money for a little child. She appears in the 1963 election records as Millie Senaysky. When her 92-year-old daughter Miriam held a picture of her (from 1965) in her hands for the first time in 2015, she commented, "She is fatter than me!" She lived in Nightingale Balham (1962-1971). In 1971, she died at Tooting Bec Hospital in London; Tooting Beck indicates that she was demented. This hospital no longer exists and is not the same as the existing Tooting Hospital. After the Luxborough Lodge closed in 1965, Millie probably went to the Nightingale Lodge. From her death certificate, it is apparent that she was demented and had no relatives. Although her life in Tooting Bec Hospital ended sadly, it should be noted that she was previously cared for in a reputable Jewish nursing home. In September 2018, her grandson Dennis Ross had her name corrected on the tombstone to "Millie Sinaysky." During this correction, a new error crept in. Her date of death on the tombstone is now mistakenly given as "6th July 1971," although, according to the death certificate, it is "15th July 1971." | |
