Finding Jewish Ancestors from Romania

A guide to finding your Jewish Ancestors from Ukraine using Miriam Weiner's Routes to Roots Foundation.

Introduction to Routes to Roots Foundation
The Routes to Roots Foundation was created by Miriam Weiner, who is a genealogist specializing in the research of Jewish roots in Poland and the former Soviet Union. In her 30+ years of experience in Eastern European archives, she collected vast amounts of information and material. Much of her data was originally published in Jewish Roots in Ukraine and Moldova and Jewish Roots in Poland, but is now available online through the Routes to Roots Foundation website. The site includes many resources to help you research your Jewish roots including a town-by-town index/inventory of surviving Jewish records in archives, maps, surname and Holocaust list databases, informative articles, and much more!
