Title: help with jewish web site please
Post by: william james on Monday 01 September 08 19:47 BST (UK)
Hi All.
What i need is someone who knows there Jewish web sites.
I got talking as you do to someone while waiting at the airport for family to arrive about my Jewish ancestor.
They gave me this web address but i can't find anything with it on.
It is supposed to be in Israel and will help me find info on my relatives flight from Nazi germany in the 1930s.
I wrote it down as it was spelt to me which was
bit hatfu tsot
Has anyone heard of this site or used it please and if so where can i find it please.
Thank you,
William James

William,

If you tell me a bit more about these ancestors, I may be able to point you to archives in Germany or suggest other ways to progress your research.

Hi Justin.
Thank you for your very kind offer, but my cousin in New Zealand has sent me more info about Malvine and  her parents and grand parents as well. So am going to have to go through that first to see what i have.
But i may have to come back to you for info that i might need.
Thank you again.

Hi William, i came upon your name at google so i hope you don't mind me getting in touch. I've tried to find an e-mail address but with no success.

I see that a while ago you posted a message about the Bloomfield family. My great great grandmother was Alice Bloomfield, who came from the same Bloomfield family you are researching. If you'd like to get in touch, please e-mail me at (i've put spaces in between to stop robots sending spam):

The synagogues hold records and it maybe worth while writing to the Chief Rabbi's ( Jonathan Sacks)  Office in London. 


There is also the Jewish Genealogical Society
