Editorial interest 87/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free, searchable index of Jewish family records, with entries linked to the original archival images.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-01 issue.

For: Jewish family-history researchers, especially Czernowitz genealogists
Worth noticing: The completed collection covers all 37 reels; a separate census index is 61% transcribed and not yet open.

Field notes

The town finder accepts spelling variants, with Lemberg, Lwów, and Львів given as examples, and the coverage guide distinguishes what is available from what is still missing. Guides address how to consult and cite the source material, including instructions for opening full-resolution frames and requesting help from the museum. The site asks users to cite the archive and holding institution, not the index alone.
