Gary Deutsch, the author of “I’ve Got Levys in my Genes: An introductory guide to Jewish Genealogy” will be speaking about getting started in your genealogy endeavors. He and the book are serious about Jewish Genealogy, but he uses a light approach including examples of Jewish celebrities and stories with comedic themes.
Gary will discuss the process of starting with what you know and continuing through census and naturalization records, vital record documents, and tombstones. He will also describe tools to assist you in your research. The presentation will be followed with a workshop with members of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Georgia.
