Welcome to the Latin American Special Interest Group!

While our focus is on Latin America, the place to which our families emigrated, the language of this mailing list is English.  At this time we do not have the capability of providing moderators conversant in Spanish or Portuguese, but can handle very brief messages in those languages through our International desk international@lyris.jewishgen.org

We welcome questions, messages, advice, suggested strategies for reserch in any Latin American country and our mailing list subscribers represent them all.

Before posting a message to latamsig@lyris.jewishgen.org, there are several points with which we would like you to become familiar:

1. Our mailing lists accept no attachments, please do not try to send any with your message.
2. Our mailing lists require messages to be sent in plain text format and will reject all others.  To make certain, or to set your e-mail program to send plain text, please visit the JewishGen Support Center and follow the instructions for you e-mail program.
