Book of Family Trees
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I work in the Archive Department of Congregation Mikveh Israel in Philadelphia. We own the hardback edition that goes up to 1977 and we use it constantly. It consists entirely of family trees of every family of Jewish origin that came to America before 1840 (including Non-Jewish descendants). Every name is indexed in the back and there are cross-references when a name appears in more than one tree. Included with the names are places and dates of birth, marriage, death, and immigration.We are willing to pay for the most up-to-date edition. The inside jacket blurb states that the 1960 edition, published by the American Jewish Historical Society ... was the basis for The Grandees, by Stephen Birmingham.
