Merle Kastner of
the Montreal JGS extracts letters of Jewish and general genealogical
importance from the Jewishgen newsgroups. She emails those letters to members of
the Montreal Society. She has given me permission to forward the letters to the
JGSO membership. There are approximately two or three such emails per day. If
you wish to receive those emails, please email me at reichstein@magma.ca and indicate that you
would like to receive them.
