Biography

Name: Ida Mesirow. Given Name: Ida. Surname: Mesirow. Rochel Mazuritsky. Given Name: Rochel. Surname: Mazuritsky. birth BEF 1903. Note: When she emigrated, she used this Yiddish name. The name in Hebrew and Ukrainian is רוצ'אל or רוחל and Рошель. Found multiple versions of name. Using Ida Mesirow. Born 1874 Pereiaslav, Kyiv Oblast, Ukraine. Note: Ida gives different birth-years on her immigration papers and in the 1910, 1920, 1930 and 1940 Census; she usually said she was the same age as her husband Joe, though she was seven years older. Pereiaslav, also known as Pereyaslav or Perejaslaw, is one of the most historic cities in the Ukraine. Directly across the Dneiper River from her husband's village, the city was the Cossack capital, where the 1654 treaty was signed that bound the Ukraine to Tsar Alexey I as allies. The treaty set off the Russo-Polish War, ending when the Poles concluded the Treaty of Hadiach on 16 September 1658, essentially freeing the Cossacks from their control. The Russians, however, forced the Ukraine into future submission with the second Treaty of Pereyaslav on 27 October 1659. The city was also the home of Bohdan Zynoviy Mykhailovych Khmelnytsky and the author of the stories upon which "Fiddler on the Roof" was based, Sholem Naumovich Rabinovich, better known as Sholem Aleichem. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Died 12 AUG 1955. West Hollywood, Los Angeles County, California. [6] [7] AMTID 130108693170:1030:113092843. Note: Mesirow was a form of her surname that her family adopted after immigrating. Many of them also changed their given names; although her name was Rochel, the Yiddish form of Rose, she chose the name Ida. In her immigration papers and the 1910 Census, Ida said she could read and write, but in the 1920 Census, she said she could speak English, but not read or write. By 1930 she was fully literate again and claimed in 1940 to have the equivalent of an 8th grade education. Like her husband, she preferred to speak Yiddish. 4 Immigration: 3 SEP 1903.

Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. Note: On 24 June 1904, his brother-in-law Lehmuel (or Schmuel) Mizeritzki, from Perejaslaw, Russia, sailed into Baltimore on the SS Frankfurt. The ship had left Bremen on 9 June 1904. He was 22 and single, and reported as his sponsor one Joe Rane, living at this address. Whether he meant this Joe Rane is like but not certain. If true, it places Joe just a few blocks from Sol Rane. Joe's wife Ida was named Mesirow, a name that several Mazuritzkys changed their name to. Residence BEF JAN 1914. Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. Note: In his naturalization petition and the 1911 city directory, this address is recorded as 1022 South Centre Avenue, the previous name for Racine south of Augusta.
