Gesher Galicia SIG #Galicia My Opus is on USHMM #galicia
Thomas F. Weiss
Dear fellow family historians,
I have been working on an extensive family history, which is now available as a PDF on the website of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM). Its current length is 627.9 MB, so it takes a while to download. It took me 1 minute and 14 seconds to download to my computer. If you are interested in reading it, here is the URL http://digitalarchives.assets.ushmm.org/pdf/bib261529_001_001.pdf or https://tinyurl.com/TFWOpus The Table of Contents shows those chapters that are in various states of incompletion and not yet available (NA) on the web site. Briefly, the material covered are: my parents' origins in Prague and Vienna, our escape >from Europe after 20 months as refugees primarily in France, my assimilation and education in America, my research in the last couple of decades that has reconnected me to my family roots in Bohemia and Galicia, and my discovery of the tragic losses of family in the Holocaust. I welcome any comments, critiques, errata, etc. Cheers, Tom Weiss Needham, MA 02492 tfweiss@...
