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

a great software tool (i wish we had)
#general
Marty Meyers <meyers01@...>
Hi,
Working with census images that are not indexed by name or even soundex can be very time consuming, as any who have tried it will attest. Would it be nice if someone could build a tool that did the following? A hypothetical procedure for find an enumeration district, given an address: A: I take the address and enter it to get a map, with a star for the location I'm searching for (note: this exists today with various mapping web sites) B: I have a definition for a particular enumeration district for a given year, for example: City of Chicago, First Ward; 5th Precinct. Bounded by Madison, Dearborn, Van Buren, South Clark. C: I enter the names of the four streets (madison, dearborn, van buren and south clark) and the software draws 4 lines corresponding to those streets, the intersection of which defines the enumeration district. D: If the ED encloses the point in part A, I'm done! Do any of our computer gurus out there think this is feasible? Even better yet: What if I could click on (or cut/paste) the description of an enumeration district and have the ED mapped out? Any of our computer gurus out there want to comment on feasibility? Cheers, Marty Meyers

Yetta is often short for Henrietta. Hendel is often short for Hanna or Johanna.

Searching For HARRISON and CASH

------=_NextPart_000_0167_01C22790.B928ADE0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I am searching for relatives by the names of HARRISON and CASH that came to the United States >from Manchester, England sometime in the second half of the 19th Century. Jacob HARRISON ( - 1906) was married to Leah CASH (1827-1907). They had eight children, Annie HARRISON (1878-1933), Israel HARRISON, Marks HARRISON (1869-1923), Harris HARRISON, Levi HARRISON, Isaac HARRISON, Louis HARRISON and Morris HARRISON. Annie HARRISON married Louis (Dan) COHEN (1873-1933); Israel HARRISON married Jenny and had two children, Alan and Hilda; Marks HARRISON married Sarah MATHIAS (1868-1957) and had three children, Alan, Daniel and David; Harris HARRISON married Rebecca and had three children, Mark, Henrietta and Jeanette; the wives and children of the other siblings of Jacob and Leah are unknown. I believe the family settled first in New York with at least one child, Annie, moving with her husband to Philadelphia and then to Waynesburg, PA. I am eager to learn where I might find the vital records on these individuals in Manchester and information on their dispersion in the United States. I would be exceedingly grateful for any leads.

------=_NextPart_000_0167_01C22790.B928ADE0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I am searching for relatives by the names of HARRISON and CASH that came to the United States >from Manchester, England sometime in the second half of the 19th Century. Jacob HARRISON ( - 1906) was married to Leah CASH (1827-1907). They had eight children, Annie HARRISON (1878-1933), Israel HARRISON, Marks HARRISON (1869-1923), Harris HARRISON, Levi HARRISON, Isaac HARRISON, Louis HARRISON and Morris HARRISON. Annie HARRISON married Louis (Dan) COHEN (1873-1933); Israel HARRISON married Jenny and had two children, Alan and Hilda; Marks HARRISON married Sarah MATHIAS (1868-1957) and had three children, Alan, Daniel and David; Harris HARRISON married Rebecca and had three children, Mark, Henrietta and Jeanette; the wives and children of the other siblings of Jacob and Leah are unknown. I believe the family settled first in New York with at least one child, Annie, moving with her husband to Philadelphia and then to Waynesburg, PA. I am eager to learn where I might find the vital records on these individuals in Manchester and information on their dispersion in the United States. I would be exceedingly grateful for any leads.
