Descendants of Meyer Charapp (B Descendants of Meyer Charapp (b. abt. 1848, Neterpince, Austria-Hungary) In this record, persons are numbered consecutively. If they married and are known to have children, there is a plus sign (+) in front of their name, which indicates that additional information about them can be found in the next generation. I am solely responsible for all errors in this record. Corrections and additions are appreciated. Stephen W. Johnson 222 Parkman Ave. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213 [email protected] September 13, 2013 Descendants of Meyer CHARAPP 13 September 2013 First Generation 1. Unknown CHARAPP was born (date unknown). According to numerous documents referenced in the notes of individuals in the Charapp descendancy, the Charapps were from Neterpince. The documents variously describe Neterpince as being in Austria, Austria-Hungary, Poland and Galacia. According to the ShtetlSeeker on jewishgen.org, the Jewish community of Neterpin'tse was located at latitude and longitude +49° 43' 59.88", +25° 21' 0.00" (http://maps.google.com/maps?q=49.7333,25.3500+(Neterpin'tse)). This puts the town in today's Ukraine, about 250 miles due east of Krawkow, Poland--100 miles east of the border of Poland. In 1900, the best description for the location of Neterpin'tse was probably Galacia--the full offical name of this Austrian province being: the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria, and the Grand Duchy of Krakau with the Duchies of Auschwitz and Zator. However, the political situation was very fluid at his time. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galicia_(Central_Europe). Thus, it is no wonder that the Charapp's identified themselves with various nationalities upon coming to the United States. Unknown CHARAPP had the following children: +2 i. Meyer CHARAPP. +3 ii. Moss CHARAPP. Second Generation 2. Meyer CHARAPP was born (date unknown). According to the Passport Applications of sons Jozef (March 23, 1925) and Max (June 16, 1921), their father's name was Meyer. Meyer CHARAPP had the following children: 4 i. Morris CHARAPP was born about 1868. Morris, age 38, was listed as a brother of Menes (Max) Charapp in an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com. Morris is shown as living in Galacia at the time. +5 ii. Yetta CHARAPP, born 1875; married Unknown MINGA. +6 iii. Menes or Mauer "Max" CHARAPP, born July 16, 1875, Neterpin'tse, Austria. +7 iv. Joseph CHARAPP, born March 3, 1879, Neterpince, Poland; married Bessie HACKMAN, June 22, 1902; died November 24, 1957. +8 v. Rose CHARAPP, born about 1888; married Unknown SCHWEPP. 2 Descendants of Meyer CHARAPP 13 September 2013 3. Moss CHARAPP was born (date unknown). According to the Ship Manifest of New Amsterdam, arriving June 2, 1913, Aron Charapp's father's name was Moss. Because son Aron was traveling with a Menes Charap, who were from the same town and the same surname, but had different fathers (Aron's father was Moss; Menes' father was Meyer), and they were each going to see their brother, it is likely that and it will be assumed here that Moss and Meyer were brothers and Aron and Menes were first cousins. Moss CHARAPP was married. Moss CHARAPP had the following children: +9 i. Louis Harry CHARAPP, born April 1, 1887, Austria-Hungary; married Annie HACKMAN, 1907, Rankin, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania; died September 18, 1968, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. +10 ii. Aaron or Aron CHARAPP, born December 28, 1889; married Rachel Clara BECK. Third Generation 5. Yetta CHARAPP was born in 1875. Yetta (Minga), age 45, was listed as a sister of Menes (Max) Charapp in an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com. Yetta is shown as living in Galacia at the time. Yetta CHARAPP and Unknown MINGA were married. Unknown MINGA was born (date unknown). 6. Menes or Mauer "Max" CHARAPP was born on July 16, 1875 in Neterpin'tse, Austria. According to the Passenger Manifest of the Nieuw Amsterdam, sailing from Rotterdam on May 24, 1913, a Menes Charap, age 38 (meaning he was born in approximately 1875) traveled to New York. He claimed his nationality as Austrian, he spoke Hebrew and he was from Neterpince, Austria. His nearest relative was his wife, who lived in Neterpince, Galacia. Her name is difficult to read, and could be "Suize". Menes was traveling to see his brother Joseph Charap, at the corner of Miller and Harriet Streets in Rankin, Pennsylvania. Menes was traveling with an Aron Charap, age 23 (meaning he was born in approximately 1890). He claimed his nationality as Austrian, he spoke Hebrew and he was from Neterpince, Austria. His nearest relative was his father Moss, who lived in Neterpince, Galacia. Aron was traveling to Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania to see his brother Levin (possibly Louis, although the handwriting is difficult to read) Charap, in Turtle Creek, Pennsylania. Because Aron and Menes were traveling together, they were from the same town, they had the same surname but had different fathers (Aron's father was Moss; Menes' father was Meyer), and they were each going to see their brother, it is likely that and it will be assumed here that Moss and Meyer were brothers and Aron and Menes were, therefore, first cousins. THIS ASSUMPTION NEEDS TO BE CONFIRMED. 3 Descendants of Meyer CHARAPP 13 September 2013 According to a Declaration of Intention to become a U.S. Citizen, dated December 30, 1915, Menes was born on March 5, 1875 and he was from Netenpinse, Poland. According to the WW I draft registration card filed in 1918, Max was born on June 12, 1875 in Austria-Hungary. He lived at 1 Miller Ave. in Rankin, Pennsylvania and he worked at Union Switch and Signal in Swissvale. According to an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com, Max 1. used the name Mauer, 2. lived at 930 Washington St., Braddock, PA, 3. worked as a baker at Max Kwallers, at the same address, 4. worked at Westinghouse Electric in East Pittsburgh until 1916, then at Union Switch and Signal in Swissvale until March 1, 1919, 5., earned about $1,000 per year, and 6. favored the United States in WW I. Max appears to have filed the application in order to become a citizen, so he could obtain passports for his family, apparently so he could bring them to the United States. The application appears to have been denied because his interview questions were inconsistent with his application (there are no apparent discepancies) , he could not write English and because "subject has apparently not applied himself in the matter of becoming acquainted with the fundamental principles of this Government and is not informed upon general matters pertaining thereto." According to the Passport Application filed by Max Charapp on June 16, 1921, 1. Max was born on July 16, 1875 in Austria, 2. his father was named Meyer, 3. he came to the United States sailing from Rotterdam on May 15, 1913, 4. he lived in the United States for eight years, from 1913 to 1921, and 5. he was living in Braddock, Pennsylvania at the time of his application. Menes or Mauer CHARAPP had the following children: 11 i. Rose CHARAPP was born about 1902 in Galacia. Rose, age 18, was listed as a daughter of Menes (Max) Charapp in an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com. Rose is shown as having been born in Galacia and was living in Galacia at the time. 12 ii. Yetta CHARAPP was born about 1904 in Galacia. Yetta, age 16, was listed as a daughter of Menes (Max) Charapp in an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com. Yetta is shown as having been born in Galacia and was living in Galacia at the time. 13 iii. Milton CHARAPP was born about 1907 in Galacia. Milton, age 13, was listed as a son of Menes (Max) Charapp in an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com. Milton is shown as having been born in Galacia and was living in Galacia at the time. 14 iv. Joseph CHARAPP was born about 1911 in Galacia. Jospeh, age 9, was listed as a son of Menes (Max) Charapp in an Application for Exception from the Classification of Alien Enemy dated December 22, 1919, available on footnote.com. Joseph is shown as having been born in Galacia and was living in Galacia at the time. 7. Joseph CHARAPP was born on March 3, 1879 in Neterpince, Poland. He died on November 24, 1957 at the age of 78. He was buried in Ahavath Achim Congregation Cem., Forrest Hills, Pennsylvania. Joseph (also spelled 4 Descendants of Meyer CHARAPP 13 September 2013 Josef, Joszef and Jozeff) owned and operated a grocery store at 1 Miller St., Rankin, Pennsylvania until approximately 1931, when he turned it over to his son-in-law Benjamin Hindin. According to family lore, he did this in an effort to protect his assets after a woman who had been hit by one of his trucks brought a lawsuit against him. According to the 1920 Census, Joseph (age 43) lived with his wife Bessie (40) and their three children, Sally (age 16), Sarah (age 14) and Helen (age 11) at 1 Miller Street, in Rankin, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania. He immigrated in 1900. She immigrated in 1891. The became naturalized citizens in 1905. He was born in Galacia (the enumberator's notes indicate that this was in Austria) and she was born in Russia.

  • The History of the Police Department (PDF)
    EARLY HISTORY The land area presently known as Elizabeth, N.J. was for many centuries prior to European xploration, the home of several native Indian tribes, including Mattona, Mamamowaouc and Cowescomen. 'hey called the area Scheyichbi. These Indians were sod house dwellers, whose principal occupation was unting and fishing in the marshlands. Little is recorded of these people but all indications reveal that they ✓ere originally a peaceful and industrious group that had settled with little nomadic tendencies. On September 3, 1609, the two masted boat named the "Half Moon," under charter to the Dutch East ndies Company and captained by Henry Hudson, anchored in Sandy Hook Bay. The mixed crew of ten ilnglish and ten Dutch sailors were attempting to find passage to China and the Indies by a Northeast route. Three days later a long boat, under the command of John Coleman and five seaman, sailed from the anchorage up the Arthur Kill, past Elizabeth and Staten Island, into Newark Bay and the Hudson River. This has the first glimpse of Elizabeth by other than a native and was quite costly for Coleman, who was killed by rn Indian arrow. In 1613, Dutch merchants opened a trading post in Manhattan, bartering with the local Indians for inimal furs and skins. This general area of New York Bay included Elizabeth and Staten Island. Because of rpz.: Iative hostility, there was no serious attempt at cultivating the soil or building settlements until about 1623. when the Dutch attempted colonization of the area between Manhattan and the Passaic River. Relations letween the Dutch and the Indians steadily deteriorated until 1655, when the natives slaughtered settlers at orboken and Staten Island, bringing to an end most Dutch settlement in the new world.
