Announcement:

The joint organization now has ten branches throughout Israel and will be pooling all its resources to further genealogical services and activities in Israel and to create a large, vibrant and forward-looking society. A wide range of programs is now available in both Hebrew and English – with other language groups being planned. The annual one-day seminar is being expanded and plans are already underway for the IAJGS International Conference on Jewish Genealogy to be held in Israel in July 2014.

The society will be pleased to welcome guests from abroad at our meetings, which are posted on our website www.isragen.org.il. We also invite speakers visiting Israel to give a lecture or presentation at one of our branches. Please contact us in advance () so we can coordinate date and location .

The organization will continue to be known as the Israel Genealogical Society (IGS) in English.

Wishing everyone a Happy Pesach,
