FJMC Jewish Genealogy Affinity Group
Presented by Mike Karsen, a Past President of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Illinois.
Jewish Genealogy is an evolving pursuit to discover who we are and where we came from. Many have heard that you cannot do Jewish Genealogy which is based on myths. These myths include that our name was changed at Ellis Island and a3/20/24ll of the records have been destroyed. This presentation will dispel those myths so that you can pursue your family's history. The presentation goes on to present the "new science" of DNA testing which is generating a new light to finding relatives.
