Is there  a list somewhere of all words that are found only once in the 
Torah  although they may be found (or a related word with the same 
shoresh)  elsewhere in Nach? If so, can you please share it with  me?
Thanks,
Gershon  Rothstein

Mostly what you find when you google is that they talk about  singletons in 
the whole Tanach whereas it seems that what you want are words  that are 
singletons in Chumash but possibly do appear again elsewhere in  Tanach.  
There must be a list somewhere, but I haven't found it.  But  maybe these links 
will be of interest to you:
 
 

 
 
Hapax  Legomenon (plural, hapax legomena). A word that only appears once  
in the Bible. It’s often hard to know what these words mean because context 
is  an important clue to a word’s meaning, and by definition a hapax 
legomenon only  appears once.

I love noticing such singletons as I read  Torah, as they are often a rich 
... I' m sure we'll encounter  other hapax legomena over the course of this 
coming  ...
