I studied Pharmacy at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa from 1970 to 1973 and I have lived in Canada since 1980.
My main interest is Jewish Genealogy and the primary family names that I am researching are: GOLDBERG, FLAX, FLAKS, PERELSON, PEARLSON, VILANOVA, BERMAN,and ABOLNIK.
My entire family tree is now available for viewing. Please note: I have also included a mini family tree from an unrelated Flax family - the descendants of Abraham and Cecilia Paulson - as this may be of interest to other Flax family researchers and one day links may be found between the various Flax families.
El apellido de soltera de mi abuela era VILANOVA, pero no era de origen Espanol. Varias apellidos Rusus terminan NOVA (feminino) o NOV (masculino). El significado en este caso es: Viniendo de la poblacion de Vilna en Lithianai. Con las differncias que existen en el alfabeto Ruso el apellido puede ser deletreado: Villanoffa o Villanof, Bellanoffa o Bellanoff, Wilanova o Willanov. Mi abuela lo pronunciaba Vilanova. Mi familia no es Sefardi, nostros somos Ashkenazi y originarios de Latvia, Lituania y Rusia. Mi abuelo era Rabbi Jehuda Vilanova en Rostov en Rusia.)
