BialyGen: Bialystok Region #Bialystok #Poland Moshe and Paula from Orla, Poland Update #poland
Hi All
My research on Moshe and Paula, both >from Orla, Poland took a dramatically turn this week, with updates >from both Canada and South Africa. The narrative originated in Orla and ended suddenly in South Africa. However, my research started 80 years later in Australia and has taken me to Poland, Belarus, the Baltics, Israel, the UK, Germany, South Africa and North America. I share my experiences about the challenges of travelling and researching in different archives and libraries. Top of the list was visiting Belarus and the State Archives in Grodno. This led me to start writing and managing KehilaLinks as a volunteer, beginning with the Orla KehilaLink and now extending to cities as diverse as Shanghai, Berlin, Kimberley and Perth, 24 in all: http://kehilalinks.jewishgen.org/capetown/about.me.html Updates can be found at elirab.me with regular posts on Moshe and Paula's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/mosheandpaula and the Orla KehilaLink: http://kehilalinks.jewishgen.org/orla Regards, Chag Pesach Sameach and This Year In Jerusalem!
