What you will find here is a separate link to each town with the pictures and records that we have been sent. Please send information on any Ukraine community and we will post it here. In September 2005 we requested information specifically on these ten Jewish communities in the Ukraine: Yablonets; Korets; Novograd-Volhynsky; Ostropol; Chernikov; Zhitomir; Berdichev; Chudnov; Staro-Konstantinov; Shepetovka. But we are interested in every village, town, and city, in the Ukraine that had once been part of the Russian Empire. Of that initial group, we have used the Membership supplied information to create sites for two of them Novogrod-Volhynsk and Zhitomir and the membership has supplied enough additional information on six other communities in other parts of the Ukraine, for us to begin their pages too.
As we start each town's page, they will be entered in alphabetical order regardless of gubernia or oblast. Treat each of these entries as what the open-source encyclopedias term a "stub." We need thousands of ancestor photos, copies of every official record that you have located from each, and volunteers willing to index and inventory materials from home and in libraries. We need town historians willing to document their research on what happened here, when. We need town advocates, ready to identify, organize, and promote specific research projects that will benefit everyone interested in this community. Many projects already in place for the Ukraine SIG will need your efforts if materials that impact this community are to be located, funded, translated, etc.
We would like to link to each page - Birds of a Feather Groups, Research Projects centered on some aspect of this community's life, and Family Pages where a significant portion of the known ancestry comes from a particular community on this list. In turn we would like to create additional links to the towns on this page - from shtetl sites, from guberniya sites, from your specialty interest page hosted on JewishGen.
