Introduction to Jewish Genealogy


Researching Jewish ancestry can be a complex endeavor. You may be able to find something quickly, or you can search for years to find one piece of information. It requires persistence, patience, networking and research knowledge. This program is presented by the Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Boston (JGSGB). Our presenter will be Carol Clingan who has traced each of her grandparents’ families back to the early 19th century in the Former Soviet Union, and has done extensive research for other relatives and friends.

 

 

 

Carol is currently the Research Projects Coordinator of the JGSGB, and has been a member of the Board for 17 years. She is also past Vice President of Temple Beth Elohim in Wellesley, and past President of Action for Post-Soviet Jewry.
