<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Yes, the record with 'Elzuz may indeed
be "the 'droid" you're looking for. you may wish to add 246's
with alternate romanizations though. Since it is referring to
Alsace, I'd probably go with 'Alzoz and/or 'Alzuz. ymmv.<br>

1) I have a sad little seder selihot here at my desk and
it purports to be ke-minhag [ayin lamed zayin vav zayin].
One the one hand, I'm pretty sure that string of letters
refers to Alsace. On the other, I can only guess at how
it's vocalized. OCLC has "Elzuz" but I suspect this is
not the 'droid I was looking for. Please, if you have
clue (and you just might!) let me know before I have to
guess.<br>
<br>
</div>
2) Hebrew language gazetteers for a place other than
Israel. Surely they must exist. If anyone has a
recommendation, I'd be grateful.<br>
