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

Looking for Lubomir Braun

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a Polish teacher >from Bialystok looking for any records about Lubomir Braun, who "died in a German camp". That's the notice I have found on the cover of one of our school library books. The book was a gift >from his mother. I was intrigued by the notice and I would like to find out more, if possible. I have been interested in Jewish issues for a few years and I am presently running an interest group in my school called "Judaica". I would be grateful for any help. Yours sincerely Anna Buchowska

The amazing 24th IAJGS International Conference on Jewish Genealogy
#ukraine
Flo Elman
The following message is posted on behalf of the conference committee
regarding the International Summer Seminar scheduled for July in Jerusalem. For any questions please subscribe to jerusalem2004@lyris.jewishgen.org and submit them to that list. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation. Carol W. Skydell, Vice President JewishGen Special Projects =========================================================== Subject: The amazing 24th IAJGS International Conference on Jewish Genealogy Some questions have been asked about our website <www.jewishgen.org/jerusalem2004> and when we are going to post the registration form and program. The short answer is by the middle of February. The program committee is evaluating an enormous number of very excellent papers that have been proposed. We promised to get this job done by the end of January. Since proposals are still coming in, even though the deadline was the end of December, we extended our own deadline by a number of weeks. Believe me when I tell you that the program will be positively outstanding. We have so many excellent proposals - more than twice the number we can possibly have presented - that we are going to be able to pick and chose only the absolute best. Hotel rates are already posted on our website - [direct link: www.ortra.com/jgen2004/registration.asp] I think you will be more than happy with the inexpensive rates we have arranged. And don't forget that those rates include all service charges and taxes as well as our famous, gigantic Israeli breakfast!! [For myself, that is all I can manage to eat in a day!] The rates per adult person in a double room are - are you ready for this? - between $40 and $48. For sure it would cost you more just to stay at home! So come to our magnificent and unique city of Jerusalem, which was one of the official seven wonders of the world! Our Conference is not only going to be outstanding as far as Archival cooperation and input, but it is probably going to be the best conference in terms of quality and breadth that the IAJGS has ever had. We have prepared several databases which we have put on CDs and which will be given free to full paying registrants. These include: --The Memorials of Vanished Communities (the very first cataloging of Israeli memorials of the Jewish Communities destroyed during the Shoah); --1875 Montifiore Census of the Jewish Population of Eretz Israel; --Helkat Mehokek (Translation of Hebrew tombstone inscriptions found on Mount of Olives); --An Index to the Jacobi Collection of Family Trees; --Sephardic and Mizrachi Genealogical Research in Israel; --Index of Family and Private Archives at the Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People (a collections of private and family archives); --A guide to the Archives and Archival Material for Genealogical Use in Israel; and more! If you have any questions, join our online discussion group "Jerusalem 2004 Discussion Group" for which you can register >from our home page: <www.jewishgen.org/jerusalem2004>. We look forward to hearing >from you and to seeing you in Jerusalem July 4 to 9, 2004!

Re: Litvak relatives from late 18th & early - mid 19th C.

Gerald Gaffin <shirl_geg@...>
I am researching the antecedents of Yaacov Dovid Berman, who migrated >from
Zagare, to the Manchester area of England, around 1890. He was born about 1848, died 1931; his first wife was Kayle Rochel Leib, who was born around 1853 and died in the UK in 1917, but there was also, apparently, a second wife [ Fanny ] - on whom there is little or no data. Yaacov Dovid, a Talmudic scholar,was the son of Moshe Berman/ Behrman ; Hebrew - Bet, Ayin, Raish, Mem, Aleph, Nun - according to his tombstone .
