              A Source List


Compiled by Jim Yarin and Warren Blatt for  Masspocha Vol. II, 
No.1 (Winter 1993)  (newsletter of the Jewish Genealogical Society 
of Greater Boston).

JGSGB's address is within the list, if someone should want to 
contact our group, and therefore need not be listed separately.

Please include the above note with all copies of the JGS publication list.


Following is a catalog of newsletters related to Jewish genealogy.  A few deal
with genealogy generally, not just Jewish genealogy, and are worth
investigating.  This list is far from complete.  Why only in the past few
months at least two new newsletters have begun publishing: Shemot (Great
Britain) and the JGS of Rochester's newsletter.  Congratulations, they both
look great!  Hopefully, by next year at this time, this list will not only be
more accurate and complete, but maybe even a few more premier issues will
premiere in the interim!
Unless noted otherwise, all newsletters are quarterly; payments are to be made
to the listed organization; the amounts are for a one year subscription.  In
nearly all cases, the subscription amount is considered the payment of dues for
a non_local member; local subscribers or memberships will probably cost more. 
Overseas subscribers should expect to pay additional.
Some information may not be current.  Be prepared for changes
 Issues are available on microfiched by AJGS (same address as Avotaynu).
