    1 THE SER~CHARLAP FAMILY NEWSLETTER Vol.2,No.2 Av 5751, Summer 1991 GULF WAR AFFECTS OUR FAMILY For a brief time during the Gulf War, Israel was the recipient of a great deal of justified praise from the Bush administration. The President and, for a change, the media expressed admiration and appreciation for Prime Minister Shamir's restraint in not retaliating against Saddam Hussein. The West, for a brief pause, seemed to remember what we all know; that Israel is surrounded by implacable enemies who will use any kind of force or subterfuge to undermine the well-being of the Jewish nation. Many American members of our family kept the transoceanic telephone lines busy by calling the mishpocha in Israel. We received much correspondence from those living under the Iraqi threat.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 o ON CA lA N Abstract For six years since 1984 Israel underwent a unique p o litic al experience: i t was ruled by national coalitions supported by more than 75% of the members of parliament. Larger-than-minimal coalitions have always been problematic for traditional coalition theory. The Israeli case provides therefore an opportunity to examine the various actors' motivations and behaviour, as they reflect on coalition theory at 1arge. The assumption that actors are driven by "win maximization" is central to formal models of coalition theory. This assumption led to predictions of winning coalitions which are minimal in size, membership or ideological scope. Non-minimal coalitions were regarded as suboptimal choices, explainable on an ad hoc basis, e.g.

  • The Ser-Charlap Family Newsletter the Clarion Call
    ~;l ! \ 1 I j l THE SER-CHARLAP FAMILY NEWSLETTER Vol. 5, No. 2 Tammuz 5754; June 1994 THE CLARION CALL by Ben Kristol Ben Kristol and his wife Ruth live in St. Augustine, Florida. Ben is one of the vast Kristol clan that originated in Zareby Koscielnie (Zaromb, Zaremba) and spread to other shtetlach in northeastern Poland. Kristols intermarried with many branches of the Ser-Char lap family, including Mankuta, Ser, Tama, and Kur. They are also intertwined with the Glovnia, Grappa, and Migdal families, all of whom may someday be included on our tree. This article was edited from several pieces provided by Ben and was augmented in a meeting held just prior to Pesach 5754. With their eyes set on the stars and their hearts full of hope, Jewish pioneers went west in 1911 to establish the Clarion Jewish Colony in the Gunnison Valley of Utah, about 100 miles south of Salt Lake City. In May of 1913 my father Samuel, of blessed memory, joined the colony. I was born early that summer and in July my dear mother with her three week old first-born son joined her husband. They were among the farmers, workers, shopkeepers, craftsmen, and people of culture who dreamed of building a model community and turning this rugged piece of wilderness into a land of milk and honey. They cleared rocks, irrigated the soil, cared for the animals, sowed and reaped, raised families and pursued their dream, one that has inspired mankind through the ages. The land was semi-desert with good soil on only some of the plots.

The English poet John Donne penned these words some 400 years ago, but many Jews seem to have lost the message, espe.cially in regard to their own kind. On August 19, 1991, a young Australian Jewish scholar, Yanke! Rosenbaum, was murdered during a violent pogrom in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. A black mob had been outraged that a black youngster had been run over and killed in an automobile accident. That the car was driven by a religious Jew, a member of the Lubavitcher Hasidim, was enough to set off the frenzied black masses. During the Crown Heights riots, Jews were beaten, injured, and Jewish stores were \.\'Tecked, burned, and looted. And Yankel Rosenbaum was stabbed to death just because he was Jewish. These were scenes reminiscent of Kishinev, Odessa, Bi.alystok, and Kieke. Despite the obvious anti-Semitism of the black crowd and the similarity to the East European pogroms from which our ancestors had fled, most "mainline" Jewish organizations had little to say.

  • The Ser-Charlap Family Newsletter
    1 THE SER-CHARLAP FAMILY NEWSLETTER Vol. 6, No. 1 Adar 5755; February 1995 THE CHARLAPS OF SLONIM The earliest evidence we have of Charlaps in Russia/Poland shows the family to be concentrated in Suwalk Gubemiya. This is the area in the extreme northeast comer of present day Poland, incorporating some of what today is Lithuania. The Charlaps, being a d_istinguished scholarly dynasty, were often invited to other regions to serve as rabbis and cantors. These moves often resulted in a change of pronunciation of the Hebrew acronym l)"~.,n . Among the variations are Charloff, Harlaff, and Charlip. Yitzhak Yaacov ben Eliyahu Yehezkiel Charloff (4383,Pl.A-9), born about 1860, became a rabbi and cantor in Tykocin, a little to the south of Suwalk in the jurisdiction of Bialystock. He was prominent in the Tykocin Music Conservatory and some of his sons continued his dedication to liturgical music. One son, Eliyahu Yezkiel (4388), named for bis grandfather, studied at the Slonim Yeshiva. Yeshiva students were generally supported with help from townspeople. It has become apparent that there were many family homes in Slonim which would give shelter to the young Eliyahu Yehezkiel. Yitzhak Yaacov's cousin, Yaacov ben Mordecai Harlaff (7859) lived in Bakelerowe, Suwalk Guberniya and also in a small village near Slonim. His son Yehezkiel (7864,Pl.A-9b) was born near Slonim in 1897 and eventually became Chief Ashkenazi Rabbi of Tiblisi, Georgia. Several of Yehezkiel 's brothers and sisters joined him in Tiblisi. His sister's daughter, Sarah (7938) married Joseph Rozansky (7939). We will show that the name Rozansky (Roshansky, Rosansky) has significance for us.
