Projects

On this page you will find links to my current projects.  My research into German Jewish families started in 2008 with the Jewish community of Themar in Thuringia and the development & curation of the website “Their Lives Live On: The Jews of Themar.” This continues to be the primary focus of my activity but following the stories of Themar’s families has led me to villages, towns, and cities throughout Germany. I have used the Geni.com database as well as this website to document the knowledge gathered of families and individuals as far back and forward as I can.

Meeting other researchers, in virtual and real time, has nurtured my work. Projects such as the “Stolpersteine” project of Gunter Demnig inspire me, and supporting the activity of others to honour the Jewish families of their hometown is always high on my list of priorities.
