    ZION IN THE NEW WORLD: THE LUBARSKYS FIND THE "GOLDENE MEDINA" ! ZION IN THE NEW WORLD: THE LUBARSKYS FIND THE "GOLDENE MEDINA" By Leslie F. Larson Bennett © Leslie F. Larson Cupertino, California, May 2015 ! ! ZION IN THE NEW WORLD: The Lubarskys Find the "Goldene Medina"1 [Let us] leave Step-Mother Russia and go to America, the land of democracy, to be Jewish farmers there, and perhaps even to build our own state, like the Mormon's state of "Utah."2 Like hundreds of thousands of other impoverished, desperate and marginalized Jews, our paternal line of émigré ancestors, Leo Bennett's grandparents, Simcha and Pearl Lubarsky, fled southwestern Russia for America in early 1880s. However, all similarity of their experience to other refugee immigrants ends abruptly upon their arrival in New York -- for the Lubarsky family was part of a pioneer experiment unique among American Jews, an experiment initially made up of just 43 families, fewer than 160 adults with their children. And, as if this were not enough, the Lubarsky family later made another extraordinary leap, from the tenements of Philadelphia to the Golden Gate of the Pacific -- just in time for the Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906. In 1880, almost 80 percent of the world's Jewish population, about six million souls, was corralled in the frontier borderlands of Western Russia, now known as the Russian or Polish Pale. By contrast, there were only about twenty-five thousand Jews living in Palestine, two hundred thousand in Western Europe, three hundred thousand in the United States and just a scattering elsewhere in the world.3 1 Yiddish expression for "golden country" used by immigrants to describe the America they dreamed of, with streets paved in gold 2 Herscher, Jewish Agricultural Utopias in America.

    Copyright by Mark David Camann 2010 1 The Dissertation Committee for Mark David Camann certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: DAVID GUION’S VISION FOR A MUSICAL AMERICANA Committee: ____________________________ Elliott Antokoletz, Supervisor ____________________________ Rebecca Baltzer ____________________________ Lorenzo Candelaria ____________________________ Kevin Mooney ____________________________ Edward Pearsall 2 DAVID GUION’S VISION FOR A MUSICAL AMERICANA by Mark David Camann, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin December, 2010 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In my research on this topic I have been assisted by many people to whom I wish to express my gratitude. On my first visit to David Guion’s hometown, Billie Smithson at the Ballinger Chamber of Commerce provided me with a biographical sketch of the composer written by the composer’s sister. I had the privilege of meeting with Neuman Smith, former chairman of the Runnels County Historical Commission in composer David Guion’s hometown of Ballinger, Texas, and his wife Barbara, who had written the Centennial Edition of the Ballinger Ledger, of which she gave me one of her two remaining copies. Through their assistance I met David Albright, at that time the chairman of that same Historical Commission, who gave me a tour of the city and who helped me greatly in a search for a certain church on a certain alley mentioned in the sheet music of a Guion composition, and together we came to the realization that if Ballinger were indeed the unnamed Southern town mentioned in the preface to this song, then surely both the church and the alley were fictitious.
