An Introduction to Holocaust Genealogical Research

Program Description:

If you have Ashkenazic or other European origins, you have relatives who were impacted by the Holocaust. This talk will explore the major repositories for Holocaust research, how to access these records online, and how finding both family members who perished and those who survived the Shoah can be an important tool for expanding your family research.
