JewishGen.org Discussion Group FAQs
What is the JewishGen.org Discussion Group?
The JewishGen.org Discussion Group unites thousands of Jewish genealogical researchers worldwide as they research their family history, search for relatives, and share information, ideas, methods, tips, techniques, and resources. The JewishGen.org Discussion Group makes it easy, quick, and fun, to connect with others around the world.
Is it Secure?
Yes. JewishGen is using a state of the art platform with the most contemporary security standards. JewishGen will never share member information with third parties.
How is the New JewishGen.org Discussion Group better than the old one?
Our old Discussion List platform was woefully antiquated. Among its many challenges: it was not secure, it required messages to be sent in Plain Text, did not support accented characters or languages other than English, could not display links or images, and had archives that were not mobile-friendly.
This new platform that JewishGen is using is a scalable, and sustainable solution, and allows us to engage with JewishGen members throughout the world. It offers a simple and intuitive interface for both members and moderators, more powerful tools, and more secure archives (which are easily accessible on mobile devices, and which also block out personal email addresses to the public).
I am a JewishGen member, why do I have to create a separate account for the Discussion Group?
As we continue to modernize our platform, we are trying to ensure that everything meets contemporary security standards. In the future, we plan hope to have one single sign-in page.
I like how the current lists work. Will I still be able to send/receive emails of posts (and/or digests)?
Yes. In terms of functionality, the group will operate the same for people who like to participate with email. People can still send a message to an email address (in this case, main@groups.JewishGen.org), and receive a daily digest of postings, or individual emails. In addition, Members can also receive a daily summary of topics, and then choose which topics they would like to read about it. However, in addition to email, there is the additional functionality of being able to read/post messages utilizing our online forum (https://groups.jewishgen.org).
Does this new system require plain-text?
No.
Can I post images, accented characters, different colors/font sizes, non-latin characters?
Yes.
Can I categorize a message? For example, if my message is related to Polish, or Ukraine research, can I indicate as such?
Yes! Our new platform allows members to use “Hashtags.” Messages can then be sorted, and searched, based upon how they are categorized. Another advantage is that members can “mute” any conversations they are not interested in, by simply indicating they are not interested in a particular “hashtag.”
Will all posts be archived?
Yes.
Can I still search though old messages?
Yes. All the messages are accessible and searchable going back to 1998.
What if I have questions or need assistance using the new Group?
Send your questions to: support@JewishGen.org
How do I access the Group’s webpage?
Follow this link: https://groups.jewishgen.org/g/main
So just to be sure - this new group will allow us to post from our mobile phones, includes images, accented characters, and non-latin characters, and does not require plain text?
Correct!
Will there be any ads or annoying pop-ups?
No.
Will the current guidelines change?
Yes. While posts will be moderated to ensure civility, and that there is nothing posted that is inappropriate (or completely unrelated to genealogy), we will be trying to create an online community of people who regulate themselves, much as they do (very successfully) on Jewish Genealogy Portal on Facebook.
What are the new guidelines?
There are just a few simple rules & guidelines to follow, which you can read here:https://groups.jewishgen.org/g/main/guidelines
Thank you in advance for contributing to this amazing online community!
If you have any questions, or suggestions, please email support@JewishGen.org.
Sincerely,
The JewishGen.org Team
Re: Members of my family with two first names

Dominique,
My observation is that your ancestors each had - a Hebrew name used for religious occasions such as synagogue services, and - a civil name used in everyday life. Both could have been recorded, but not necessarily so. Regards David Laufer Sydney

Including a suicide in a family history
#general
Davida Handler <davida.handler@...>
When writing a family history, is it necessary, or even permissible,
to publish the suicide of an ancestor, no matter how many generations back that this occurred, and no living descendants who ever even knew the person? Is the "right to know" applicable to all family members, or is it best to simply mention the date of death, with no inclusion of this information? Is the risk of hurting descendants, even if at least 4 generations removed more important than the facts? Davida Noyek Handler Henderson, NV, USA

BARENBAUM family in Argentina
#general
Jenny Schwartzberg
Dear Genners,
My cousin Frada Boxer is currently visiting Argentina and she was hoping to find the family of her grandfather's brothers. We know that her great-grandfather, Itzhak Shimon Barenbaum, was a Torah scribe. His son Jacob Mordecai Barenbaum (1866-1949) was born inPovitye near Divin, Kobrin uyezd, Grodno gubernia, Russia now Belarus. He settled in Chicago but the family remembers that his brothers went to Argentina. No one remembers their names or their children's names. We are hoping that some Argentine genners may recognize this family. Please contact me at schwartzbergj@newberry.org and I will pass the emails on to my cousin. Yours, Jenny Schwartzberg Chicago, IL

GLICK family from South Africa (originally Russia)
#general
Please will you check your trees to see if you have a GLICK family listed?
I am looking for Benjamin GLICK (b 1860 Russia d 1942 Cape Town) who may be a relative. I found a photo of his stone in a cemetery called "Maitland Gate 8". It can be seen at: https://www.jewishcemetery.co.za/deceaseds/view/18165 In 1942 he had a wife and children (no grandchildren are mentioned on the stone). One of the children could have been called Harry (Tzvi). I would also like to post this appeal on the South African equivalent genealogy site. If you know the email address to which I should send this appeal, could you advise me? Please send any replies to me directly. My email address is: daniel@lobbus.co.uk Thank you, Daniel Gleek in London Also searching for: Sheila nee KELLER b about 1920 in London. Went to USA/Canada. Norman WALDEN b about 1915 in UK. Went to Montreal, Canada. Siblings Solly, Johnny, Abraham, Martha HERMAN b 1902-9 London; went to NYC. Siblings Morris, Max and Mary NIMAN b 1893-7 in Glasgow, Scotland.

ZACKLIN (ZACK) AND MOSTEL families of Leeds
#unitedkingdom
A S Goldberg
I am trying to trace a ZACKLIN family (who later shortened their name to
ZACK) who were living in Leeds during the first half of the 20th century. The ZACKLIN father was a Leeds milkman and he had 2 children. Joe ZACK(LIN) was in the tailoring trade. He died aged 82 in 1976 and is buried in Leeds. His sister Ray was quite a well-known screen and stage actress and married an actor Tommy MOSTEL. After his death, she married a businessman from Sheffield. Ray had a daughter who married a HOLM >from Leeds. I would greatly appreciate hearing >from anyone who might know this family or have information relating to its members and, hopefully, current descendants. Please respond to me direct to alancomm@netmedia.net.il. Many thanks, A S Goldberg Jerusalem
