Blanket family in Tallinn in 1960s

Postitus Postitas joel.blankett »

In the context of my genealogical research, I have just obtained information according to which my grandfather's brother, Moisei Blanket, and his wife, Sofia, are buried in the Jewish part of the Rahumae Cemetery of Tallinn.

I have been trying to find information on this brother for a number of years - without success. He was the only one of my grandfather's siblings who remained in Russia after the Revolution (my grandfather had moved to Finland by then) and is known to have lived in Leningrad since sometime in the early 1930s. He apparently moved to Tallinn sometime in the late 1950s or early-mid 1960s. My grandfather got a permission to visit his brother once in Tallinn sometime in the mid- 1960s, but after that all contact with this branch of the family was lost.

I would much appreciate any help or suggestions on how to get additional information on these persons, records of family members maybe still living in Tallinn etc.

Best regards,

Joel Blankett

Sain Joelilt meili:
...Do you have any suggestions as to which archive, government office or
population registry in Estonia I could try and contact, to learn more
on this person ?
And if it is not too much trouble - could you perhaps just let me know
if the name Blanket is listed in the Tallinn telephone directory ?
Perhaps children or grandchildren of this family still live in Tallinn.

Again, thank you very much for your kind help.

Best regards from Jerusalem,

Joel

P.S. if you prefer, you can answer in Estonian. I speak Finnish so I
think I can understand it, more or less.

Kuna ise pole vastavate ametkondadega suhelnud, siis järsku on keegi nii viisakas, et vastab talle, kas siis inglise, soome või ka ... eesti keeles :roll:
Tervitades,
