STUDIES
IN ANGLO-JEWISH HISTORY
(in association with the Jewish
Historical Society of England)
Edited by Rabbi Dr Bernard
Susser
[These were a series of A5
booklets in process of publication by Rabbi Susser at the
time of his death]
There are a
number of lists included in the Archive, some contain very small numbers of
records and some are difficult to read. Where a list is legible and
contains reasonable numbers of records, it is being prepared for the ALL UK
Database, other lists will be found in their original format.
