Past Conferences
on Jewish Genealogy

Annual conferences on Jewish Genealogy have been held since 1981 (two conferences were held in 1984). Over the years, the conferences have become larger and ever more professional. All, however, have served the purpose of bringing together those interested in Jewish Genealogy: to learn, to research, and, most importantly, to share. The names of the conferences have varied and the numbering did not become standardized until 1998, as shown below. Where a conference website is still accessible, the archive image is a link to it, so click on the image to see the website.
