Names and locations can be difficult due to changing borders and languages. The Holocaust destroyed most pre-WWII records, so alternate sources must be used. Resources mentioned include JewishGen, Yad Vashem's database of Holocaust victims, and genealogists who can aid complex Jewish research.
African American genealogy research basicsElaine Hayes
This document provides an overview of research steps and resources for African American genealogy. It begins with challenges such as lack of records prior to 1860 when slaves were considered property. The presentation recommends starting with oral history and records after 1870 when former slaves were enumerated by name. Resources discussed include census, vital, church, military records, as well as records specific to slaves such as bills of sale, Freedman's Bureau documents, and WPA slave narratives. The document stresses the importance of understanding naming conventions and geographic relocation when researching African American ancestry.
This presentation provides the basic fundamentals to begin researching African American lines; including understanding the records and resources that are available, where to begin, and tips on combating the challenges of researching African Americans.
The Library of Virginia houses records dating back to the 1600s that contain the names of millions of African Americans, both slave and free. These names provide access to individual stories from the establishment of slavery until its end in 1865. Petitions were a primary way for legislation to be introduced, and African Americans could petition the General Assembly. Records such as Cohabitation Registers and freedom suits contained genealogical information about slaves and freed families.
The document discusses sources in genealogy research. It provides definitions of what constitutes a source, including records that directly provide information about an ancestor's life events. Examples are given of source records like census, birth/death certificates, and church records. The document emphasizes the importance of evaluating sources for accuracy by examining the original record rather than just an index, noting all relevant details, asking questions the record raises, and properly filing sources for future reference.
This document provides an overview of resources for genealogical research beyond basic records. It discusses other federal census schedules, non-federal and foreign censuses, land and property records from survey systems, the Bureau of Land Management, and fire insurance maps. It also mentions wills and related records like testate and intestate documents, guardianships, and inventories. The document recommends genealogical resources beyond FamilySearch like GenWeb sites and the National Archives, and paid subscription databases. It concludes with information on educational opportunities in genealogy like degrees, certificates, courses, conferences, and professional accreditation.
1. Begin your genealogy research by recording what you already know about your family. Then read a genealogy how-to book and begin researching at home using sources like family bibles and records.
2. Next, look for compiled genealogical information published in books, periodicals and online. Research one ancestral line at a time.
3. Original records like census records, vital records and social security death indexes can provide important details to trace your family further back. The census provides information about names, locations and dates to follow family lines over generations.

The document discusses the history of how Jews in the 19th century became fascinated with biology and theories of race. As Jewish identity and distinctions were disappearing after emancipation, race emerged as a new marker of Jewish identity. Early Zionists connected Jewish bloodlines to nationality and the land of Israel. While some argued Ashkenazi Jews originated among Eastern European groups like the Khazars, genetic studies have since shown that Jewish ethnic groups are genetically closer to each other and Palestinians than to host countries in the diaspora, with shared Middle Eastern ancestry. The implications of these findings for Jewish identity and its relationship to DNA are still debated.

Discovering Ancestral Roots Through Technology and GenealogyBeverly Morten
Technological advancements and increased public interest in genealogy have led to an explosion of resources available for researching family history. Websites like Ancestry, Fold3, and Newspapers have indexed and published records that were previously difficult to access, creating a massive online repository of data. In addition to census and vital records, potential sources of genealogical information include passenger lists, immigration records, property records, church records, military records, newspapers, city directories, and the Social Security Application Form SS-5. There are many free and paid services as well as institutions like the National Archives that can help expand one's research. It is important to keep notes on sources consulted to avoid redundant searching.

The document discusses a recent change made to the introduction of the Book of Mormon by the LDS Church. The previous introduction stated that American Indians were the "principal ancestors" of the Lamanites, while the new introduction says they are "among the ancestors." The change was made to account for genetic evidence that American Indians likely had other ancestral groups mix with Book of Mormon peoples. Some speculate the change was pushed by political interests aiming to discredit the Book of Mormon and move the LDS Church towards a "one world religion."
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

Search Ancestral File and the IGI, but don’t give
up if you don’t find anything in these two
databases.
Also search their collection of scanned original
documents and their Family History Library
catalog.
Visit the Family History Library in Salt Lake City or
order microfilm from the FHL through LCLS.
$5.50 per microfilm ordered (15 cents per page
for microfilm) for a 60 day loan period. 28
30. It’s an immigrant genealogy.
Eastern European Jews did not have surnames
before 1800.
Jewish culture and religion can influence
genealogy, especially in naming patterns.
The Holocaust. Nearly all Jewish American
families have relatives killed in the Holocaust.
Some resources for Jewish genealogy exist outside
of American genealogy.

31. Almost all of the ancestors of Jewish-
Americans arrived in the US within the
past 120 years.
Thus it usually requires international
research.
You may find yourself communicating
with people (and relatives) all over the
world. 31

33. Many Jewish-Americans don’t know anything about
where their family came from except “Russia” or
“Germany” or “Austria”. Until the end of WWI these
were the 3 countries that made up most of Central
and Eastern Europe so this information is not very
helpful.
You may be able to find the town of origin in
immigration, naturalization and passenger arrival
records. The spelling should be correct in passenger
arrival records.

45. “Some people are living today who were born in
Lemberg, Austria; bar mitzvahed in Lwow,
Poland; married in L’vov, Soviet Union and
reside today L’viv, Urkraine, but who have never
left their home town. The names Lemberg,
Lwow, L’vov and L’viv have been used for the
same city in western Ukraine during the past
85 years.”
Gary Mokotoff in Avotaynu Guide to Jewish
Genealogy, copyright 2004 45
46. Few Jews had hereditary surnames
prior to 1800. Which is a little later
than most cultures. It is difficult to
trace patronymics (i.e. Isaac ben
Abraham) prior to 1800.
46
47. Occupations: Kramer or Kauffman (merchant),
Metzger, Rzeznik or Schechter (butcher), Schuster
(shoemaker), Schneider (tailor), Leder (leather).
Place names (often –ski or –er); Unger (from
Hungary), Warshawski (from Warsaw).
Physical Characteristics: Schwartz (black), Braun
(brown), Gross (big), Klein (little), Geller (yellow or in
Yiddish – redhead).
Patronymics: Mendelsohn (son of Mendel)

48. Cohanim (descendents of Aaron- high priest
caste)
Surnames such as Cohen, Kagan, Kogan, Kahn,
Kahan, Katz, Kaplan and Rappaport are usually
Cohanim.
Leviim (descendants of Levi-keeper of the
temple)
Surnames such as Levi, Levin, Segal, Landau,
Horowitz and Epstein are usually Leviim.
Israelites
The majority of Jews are in the Israelite caste. 48
49. Ashkenazic Jews (descended from the Jews of
medieval Central and Eastern Europe): normally name
their children after deceased relatives (often the
recently deceased).
Sephardic Jews (descended from the Jews of medieval
Spain) often use this pattern:
First son – father’s father
First daughter – mother’s mother
Second son – mother’s father
Second daughter – father’s mother
49
50. 50% of European Jews and 91% of Polish Jews were
murdered in the Holocaust.
Most of these victims have no known gravesite and
the destruction of pre-WWII European Jewish artifacts
was nearly total. Many Jews believe that documenting
and researching each person’s fate can function as a
memorial to lost relatives.

57. Most old Jewish cemeteries in Europe still exist.
Headstones are often in Hebrew or Yiddish.
Parents names are often on headstones and thus can
take you back another generation.
Symbols on tombstones can also give you some
information. (i.e. two hands with thumbs touching in
a priestly blessing for Cohanim families).
