registered member from Libivne.<br />

M. Kroyt; in 1909, Afeldman; and in 1909, M.<br />
Feiferman and Afeldman."<br />
Luboml-Libivne: The Town's Jewish Name<br />
As in many towns in Poland, the Jews of this<br />
Volhynian settlement gave a Yiddish name to<br />
their home.<br />
The official name of the town was Luboml. In<br />
olden times the town was called Lubomle, and in<br />
a document from 1562 it is called Libomla." In<br />
rabbinic literature, especially in the older works,<br />
the town was mainly known as Lubomla (very<br />
often reversed as Lubelma or Lubleme). But in the<br />
language of the people it was entirely Yiddishized<br />
to Libivne.<br />
The name Libivne was used not only during<br />
the last three or four decades of the<br />
community's existence, but for a long time<br />
before. Some 200 years ago, the name Libivne<br />
(or Libavne, Libivna) is found in a rabbinic<br />
text. In his endorsements of the books<br />
Margaliyot HaTorah and Damesek Eliezer,<br />
Aron-Yoel ben Dovid identifies himself as<br />
"head of the Rabbinical Court of Libavna." If a<br />
local rabbi already used the name Libivne in<br />
1782, then it is clear that the local Jews used<br />
that name even before that, perhaps 250-300<br />
years ago.<br />
A second rabbinic texta much later onethe<br />
Likutei Tsvi of Tsvi Hersh from Yanova<br />
(Pietrokov, 1909), includes an endorsement by the<br />
"Dayyan [Judge] and Moreh Tzedek [Righteous<br />
Teacher] of the Community of Libivne."<br />
There has been at times great confusion around<br />
the name Libivne-Luboml, and at other times it is<br />
just a curiosity.<br />
The renowned rabbi of Lemberg, R. Yosef-<br />
Shaul Natanson, in his notes on the book Tiv<br />
Gitin, which discusses the names of towns, wrote<br />
about Luboml that "it seems that it is today called<br />
Lublin, and I remember H] that many old books<br />
call the city of Lublin Lubomla [Luboml]." Even<br />
a rabbi from Lemberg, which, after all, was located<br />
not all that far from Luboml, confused it<br />
with Lublin.'<br />
Rabbi H. N. Dembitzer, a great expert on<br />
rabbinic genealogy, pokes fun of R. Yosef-Shaul
