Yitzkor
Books and
Encyclopedias
|
| Radom |
In
2022 JewishGen
did a complete
translation of
the Book of
Radom which was
previously only
available in
primarily
Yiddish at the
NY Public
Library. The
translation of
the Yiddish and
an expansion on
what was in
English in
previously
abridged form
adds valuable
information for
genealogists. In
particular
genealogists
will find an
extensive Yizkor
section by those
in Israel that
commemorates
those who died
in the Shoah. |
