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

With Warsaw Addresses, Can I search further?
#general
Wsn99@...
Hi Genners,
I have discovered the Warsaw addresses of 2 members of my family and am wondering if there is anything else I can do with this information to dig deeper. I will give the specifics - any feedback is most welcome. David and Feige Peril Nudelman and 3 children (Shmuel, Bayla Ruehle) were living at 17 Prosta Street in 1929. I know they emigrated to Australia but am interested in knowing if there is any way to search info on them >from Poland, going backwards from this date. I have the info since that date going forward.David's brother Josef Nudelman lived at 43 Mila in 1937. He had a wife and a son at the time (don't know the names). He survived the war in a Russian forced labor camp and emigrated to Australia in 1947. I would be thrilled to discover the name of his wife and son, if that's possible. They supposedly perished during the war. There were other brothers and a sister that lived in Warsaw, all supposedly having perished, leaving no info - for the time being. Any help would be much appreciated. Wendy Newman, San Francisco researching Nudelman >from Pulawy and Warsaw

Re: "status quo"?
#hungary
avikrula@...
There were some Orthodox Rabbis (in the full sense) who did not want
to belong to the Ortodoxem for different reasons. For example in Carei/Nagykaroly (Krule) Rabbi Mayer Pearls (1811-1893) did not become part of the Ortodoxem even thou he was one of the greatest opponents of the Neologem. It is said that joining the Ortodoxem would undermine the Rabbinical power in the community. In the later years there was a strife between different Hasidim who should be Rabbi, and since the Government only recognized one Congregation, one Hasiddis had to create a Status quo Shul. Another example is in Sighet when followers of a different Rabbi did not want to belong to the same Shul so they created a Status quo Shul . What comes out is that you have to look at each town differently. For all you know the Status quo was as Religious (or more) then the Ortodoxem. If you name of the town it will be helpfully in answering your question. Shloimie Schwartz Monsey, New York http://lichtensteinheritage.blogspot.com
