Jewish Genealogical Society of Sacramento Meeting

Jewish Genealogical Society of Sacramento
Monday, August 20, 2012, 7 p.m.
"Searching for Living People"

Bay Area genealogist Ron Arons will talk about the value of finding people who might know more about your family than can be found in any document. His presentation will include scores of websites to find almost any living person, whether you know their correct surnames or not.

In 2005, Ron won a New York State Archives grant for his historical criminal research of Jews in new York City. In 2008, he published "The Jews of Sing Sing" about Jewish criminals who served time "up the river" at the famous prison in New York. Ron appeared on the PBS special, "The Jewish Americans," talking about famous Jewish criminals.

All are welcome to attend the August 20, 7 p.m. meeting at the Albert Einstein Residence Center, 1935 Wright St., Sacramento. For more information about the Jewish Genealogical Society of Sacramento, visit www.jgss.org, e-mail mortrumberg1@earthlink.net
