My late father's relatives also moved from Klodawa to Britain just before the 1st world war. Their last name Cieplinski got anglizised to Chaplin. Maybe some of those might be known to you my first name "Menashe" was common in the family I know of a cousin who was also Menashe but in England called himself "Monty Chaplin". Menashe. Additional email from Menashe Cieplinski 9/3/08: The 2 brothers [Cieplinsk] that survived the war were Shmuel that spent the war in Russia and then immigrated to Israel in 1955, and Moishe, my father who came to Mexico. Both died in 1993. Per Email from Larry Pizer great-grandson of Chaya-Brana Cieplinski, 9/3/08: A Male Cieplinski had three children, the oldest of whom was Chaya Brayna, who married Michul Przedecki who had Shmuel, who had Jack, who had Steve and me. The second child of the Male Cieplinski was the father of Moishe Cieplinski, who immigrated from Poland to Mexico City (and whom both Dad and Mom and later I visited). Moishe was the father of William of Middletown, NY, and Menashe, who moved to Halifax, NS, and might still be there. [see "Family History" page on this site, under Michuel Przedecki, son of Mordcha and Rivka Przedecki] Per Email from Bill Cieplinski 9/17/08: Of the Cieplinskis in Klodawa, my father [Moshe] had one brother and
several sisters; the sisters were married and had families and they all
perished in the Holocaust together with my grandparents. The only one that
survived (aside from my father Moshe ) was his younger brother Shmuel who
spent the war in Russia; after the war he and his wife went back to Poland
and in 1956 when they allowed Jews to leave they went to Israel with my
father's help. They had two children, Hanna ( named after our grandmother )
and Arie, Hanna has three daughters and I am in close touch with her and
Arie. We saw them earlier this year on a trip to Israel. Arie changed his
name from Cieplinski to Tzapir. My wife, my daughter and myself were in
Poland 2 years ago; we tried to visit Klodawa; the area near the train
station was desolate and it was a very ugly rainy day and we did not see
people we could talk to. I felt that the whole trip to Poland was an
exercise in visiting with ghosts.. I hope this information is useful and
feel free to get in touch to continue the dialogue. Additional email from Bill Cieplinski, 10/12/08: Pola Cieplinski was my uncle Shmuel's wife and she survived him for almost 15 years and just died last year. I do have pictures from Poland many of which I do not know who they are. I think that some of them are from my father's sisters and their families, none of whom survived. I have photos of my uncle Shmuel and his wife taken on trips to Israel and in the USA. My mother was a Bierzwinski and she had 5 brothers all of whom left Poland prior to the war. The eldest lived all his life in the USA his name was Shmuel as well. The others lived in Mexico and have all passed away but left families. My Bierzwinski grandparents, Avraham Meir and Toibe Rivke also came to Mexico and they passed away in 1952 and 1958 respectively.

EMAIL FROM MARTIN FRANKEL, 06JAN2015: Dear Judy, I have been gazing at your site for a week now. I discovered it after I sent a snail mail to Dr. Menashe Cieplinski, which hasn't been delivered yet. I am researching the family of my late wife, Susan Chaplin whose grandfather, Ziskind Cieplinski, was born in Klodawa in 1878, the son of Menasze Cieplinski. Ziskind settled in London about 1900 and changed his surname to Chaplin. I knew that a branch of the Cieplinskis had settled in Mexico but when I wrote to Menashe, I hadn't realized that William and Menashe were in fact that branch, and had settled in USA and Canada. In the 1970's, I met the family of Shmuel and Paula Cieplinski here in Israel. I am 71, born in England. Susan and I settled in Israel in 1968. We have 5 children. Sadly Susan died young in 1989. I have 16 grandchildren. I would be grateful if you would forward this message to both William and Menashe as I would like to contact them as soon as possible. Thank you. Shalom from Israel, Martin Frankel. EMAIL FROM WILLIAM CIEPLINSKI 06JAN2015: Dear Judy: Thank you again for your help and concern. I had spoken to Menashe about trying to get in touch with the London branch of the family. My father found them back in the 60s but we lost contact with them. Menashe did find somebody in Canada. Please feel free to forward this to Martin and I will write to him directly. Thanks again. Hope to see you in person sometime in the spring. EMAIL FROM MARTIN FRANKEL 07JAN2015: Dear Judy, Things moved very fast yesterday - thanks to you. I had quite an exchange of correspondence with Bill [Cieplinski] and actually spoke to him last night - Israel time. I think we are close to mapping out the family of Menasze Cieplinski (born abt 1840) of Klodawa and his 6 known children. I understand that you have the email of Larry Pizer, the descendant of Chaya Brayna Cieplinski Pizer. I would be happy to bring that part of the genealogy/history of the family up to date. Perhaps you had better prepare him on our project. Shalom. Martin. EMAIL MARTIN FRANKEL TO LARRY PIZER [grandson of Chaya Brana Cieplisnki Pizer] 07JAN2015: Dear Larry Pizer, Judy has supplied your address. I found your name on her wonderful site I am Martin Frankel, aged 71 and a pensioner. I was born in England but settled in Israel in 1968.I am researching the family of my late wife, Susan Chaplin whose grandfather, Ziskind Cieplinski, was born in Klodawa in 1878, the son of Menasze Cieplinski. Ziskind settled in London about 1900 and changed his surname to Chaplin. My brother-in-law, John Chaplin (now Sharon) and his cousin, Richard Chaplin have provided much of the material. John and Richard (Rick) also live in Israel. I have, together with our new-found cousins William and Menashe Cieplinski, put together the beginning of a family tree. The dates given are correct as they are derived from the English census of 1901, the census of 1911 and the London Jewish Chronicle archives.I would be very grateful, if you you could update the genealogy of Chaya's (and your) family for me. I understand from Judy that you are an historian so that will be a great help. If you have reservations about the info on the family tree please let me know as we are still at an embryonic stage.

EMAIL MARTIN FRANKEL 28JUL2015: Dear Barbara, Thank you for your very quick reply. I hadn't expected to receive information so quickly. We are investigating the family of my late wife, Susan (nee Chaplin), born in London, who was a descendant of the Cieplinski family of Klodawa. Two of her grandfather's siblings remained in Klodawa: 1 Blima Cieplinski who married Pinkus Glasman see 105 in voters' list 2 Abram Alje Cieplinski who married Hana Flauster see 46 in voters' list. Regarding the Glasmans, I understand that all perished in the Holocaust. I do not know what happened to Mindel Glasman as I do not know if she married and left Klodawa. Some of the data you just sent on the Glasmans was completely new to me. Thank you! The main purpose of my investigation regards the children of Hana and Abram Alje (Avraham Eliyahu) Cieplinski. I am in contact with the children of Mojsze Cieplinski who emigrated to Mexico just in time. His children are Dr. William Cieplinski of New York and Dr. Menashe Cieplinski of Halifax Canada. I am also in contact with the children of Szmul Cieplinski, who joined the Soviet Red Army (or perhaps the Polish Army in Russia), survived the war and returned to Poland (Lodz). Szmul emigrated to Israel about 1955. His children were called Arie and Hanna Cieplinski before they changed their names. The rest of the family perished in the Holocaust, and we are trying to reconstruct this family. We are know that there were 2 sisters called Chaya and Perl and there was probably a third and youngest sister (who might have been named Blima). However except for the birth document of Chaya, which we received from Madeleine Okladek, we have no documentation for any of them. Because of the pain involved none of the information was ever properly transmitted to Moshe and Shmul's children. From the voters' list I see that only Moshe and Shmul were still residents of Klodawa. So I assume perhaps wrongly that Chaya and Perl might both have married and left Klodawa. The third sister (if she exists) might have been too young to vote and therefore that could be a reason for not appearing in the voting list. VOTER REGISTRATION FROM 1931 KLODAWA PROVIDED BY BARBARA GANCZYK:
CLICK HERE TO SEE CIEPLINKI/GLASMAN FAMILY TREE: EMAIL MARTIN FRANKEL 29JUL2015: Dear all, For the last 2 days, I have received a lot of material from Barbara Ganczyk of Klodawa. In particular Barbara sent me a remarkable unpublished research document that she had laboured on, regarding the fate of Klodawa Jews. There is no good news from this period. It is only to make a closure. It is just that Menashe has always maintained that his aunt Perl was in fact Feige Perl Cieplinski. Barbara relates from a survivor's document that some Jews chose to flee Klodawa in the direction of the then Soviet Union. It is related that Feige Cieplinski from Klodawa reached the small town of Baranowicze in what is now Belarus. There were some 10000 Jews in the Ghetto of Baranowicze at this time including some 3000 refugees, of whom only about 250 survived the war. However Feige and her small son Natan were in fact killed in a bomb raid in Baranowicze. Feige was described as being married to Lajzer. Very excitingly half an hour ago Barbara confirmed that this was Leizer Krel. I then went to Judy's Klodawa site - I always do - to look up the Krel family and it is all there. It also explains the connection between the Krels and the Cieplinskis and how the Cieplinski photo was found in the Krel family documents. I know that Leizer Krel died in the Holocaust and I imagine that he reached Baranowicze with his wife and son. Judy, perhaps the Krels can tell us more. Thank you Barbara. On behalf of the Cieplinskis. Martin
EMAIL DAN ROTH 01AUG2015:Hi Martin: We surprise and happy to get the mail about Feige Cieplinski.
