Genealogy is like a jigsaw puzzle, but you don't have the box top, so you don't know what the picture is supposed to look like. As you start putting the puzzle together, you realize some pieces are missing, and eventually you figure out that some of the pieces you started with don't actually belong to this puzzle. I'll help you discover the right pieces for your puzzle and assemble them into a picture of your family.

Effort to Return Passports to Owners
The Central Zionist Archives and the World Zionist Organization have in their holdings original passports from several countries and continents. They and the Jewish Agency for Israel are now trying to return those passports to the original owners or their descendants. The site is in Hebrew. If you do not read Hebrew (like me!), you can use Google Translate to read it (here it is in English) and the lists of names, which are downloadable PDF files.
