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

Czernowitz records
#romania
Zev Cohen
Shana Tova!
I have been looking at the Metrical Books of the Czernowitz Jewish community through the Family Search site. My late mother Rosa was born in Czernowitz on December 31, 1920, but there is no record of the birth on the relevant pages of birth records. Could anyone with experience of these records advise me why this might be? I am certain about the date. Could it be that some families did not record births for some reason? Are there other sources for births in Czernowitz during those years? I'm also looking for marriage and birth records in Czernowitz in the 1930s. Many thanks. Zev Cohen

Three Ways to Support JRI-Poland.org
#poland
Dear friends of JRI-Poland:
This is the time of year when many of our supporters consider holiday and year-end contributions, and so we ask you to give serious thought to the three ways in which your help can be so important to JRI-Poland at this time: 1) Contribute to a Town Project There is more to do for almost every town in our database including adding more years and supplementing existing indices with additional information. Donations of every size are needed to keep each town project moving forward. Please contact the Town Leaders or Archive Coordinators for your towns to find out what additional indexing or records extraction needs to be done or write to questions@.... Please give generously to these worthwhile projects. 2) Give a Gift to our Next Generation Project JRI-Poland has embarked upon an ambitious Next Generation project to make our website even more productive in the coming year. The 'Next Gen' Project requires significant donations. It entails the first overhaul haul of our database and website in 25 years. It is our commitment to bring you the very best ways to access and analyze the information you need to build your family tree and retrieve the names of your previously unknown ancestors and lost relatives. I am proud to mention that several JRI-Poland board members have directed significant grants >from family foundations to support the Next Gen project. While not everyone is in a position to match their generosity, now we need others to join our families with their support. We still have a long way to go and we hope to raise a minimum of $10,000 a month over the next year to make sure development proceeds at a steady pace. For more information about Next Gen, please write to nextgen@... and read more at: http://www.jri-poland.org/NextGeneration.pdf 3) Help Strengthen our General Fund The JRI-Poland General Fund can also use your strong support. As JRI-Poland has grown over the years, we've experienced increasing Computer, Accounting & Auditing needs that require professional resources, and since we are a completely independent organization that has never charged a membership fee, we need to ask now for donations to administer our basic support structure. No donation is too small and every donation is greatly appreciated! You can donate online at: www.jri-poland.org/support.htm When donating by credit card, under "Town Name' please write in which town you wish to support, or under Special Instructions write: 'Next Generation Project' or "General Fund" depending on your intention. If you are in a position to make a further significant difference towards the future of JRI-Poland, please contact mitzvah@.... Your exceptional generosity is needed now! Remember, we now also provide a facility to make recurring donations. Small donations >from you each month, can make a large difference to us. Finally, JRI-Poland has been the recipient of a number of bequests >from researchers remembering our organization in their final gift giving plans. These bequests have given us the flexibility in the past to invest in new indexing/extractions projects. We hope that those of you who are in position to do so will consider supporting the JRI-Poland legacy with a bequest of your own. Note: JRI-Poland is an independent non-profit organization, a registered 501(c)(3) in the United States, with its own administration, volunteers and fundraising. As a courtesy to researchers, JRI-Poland enables its data search results to be displayed on JewishGen's All Poland Database. Wishing each and every one of you a healthy and joyous 5780! Stanley Diamond Executive Director, JRI-Poland.org On behalf of the board of JRI-Poland
