COMPLETED sefardies.org/genealogy
« on: Thursday 01 November 12 19:32 GMT (UK) »
I have been researching my Jewish ancestors and sometimes when I "Google" a name, I come across a web site " www.sefardies.org ". This web site looks as if it has been an excellent resource for individual ancestors from what is seen on Google, but it no longer seems to exist!

Has anyone come across this web site before and does anyone know what has happened to it? Has the name has changed?
Thank you
Sue

Hi Sue,

There is a sefardies_org account on Twitter, but it seems to be current affairs, not genealogy.

Or there's this forum within the JewishGen website
http://www.jewishgen.org/sefardsig/SefardForum.htm
which looks more like it. Apart from the forum there seem to be several links to family names on the home page, if you browse around.

Hope that helps
 :) Barbara

Hi Barbara,
Thank you for that. I already know aboutjewish gen as I have been using it. Interesting about twitter though, I shall have a look.
Just modified this post as I have realised what you mean about the jewish gen forum. Going to it right now.
Thanks

The Internet Archive Wayback Machine has pointers to a few stored pages of this
vanished site:

http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/http://www.sefardies.org

You will need to type the whole of the above line into your browser, as
Rootschat can't handle the link correctly.

Can't see anything on them which show any contact details for the site's owners.

Thank you everyone for your contributions and interest. It has been a valuable site for those of us researching our Jewish ancestors and hopefuly one day the information will be put on another site and we will be able to use it.
Thank you all
