Member Success Stories

Sunday, March 3, 2013 at 11 AM
at the Holocaust Memorial Center

Three JGSMI members will discuss their recent projects and success stories with attendees. There will be time for Q&A.

Michelle Gettleson
Michelle will speak on three topics: 1) her brick wall problem regarding her paternal grandfather’s immigration to Canada and then to the United States in 1906; 2) an extended family tree for her paternal grandmother’s side of the family; and 3) her frequent visits to the Salt Lake Family History Library.

Adina Lipsitz
Adina will discuss the KehilaLinks site and Facebook group she and co-coordinator Joshua Perlman have set up for the Belarussian town of Stolin. It will not be a technical talk, but instead will center around connections that have been made with other Stoliners, including Chassidim.

Stephanie Newman
Stephanie will discuss two topics: 1) How to order records from the National Archives and Records Administration, and 2) Ancestry.com’s family tree feature and the difference between private and public trees.
