I. Introduction:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Bohemia-Moravia SIG is dedicated to serving as an information
gathering vehicle and clearinghouse for Jewish genealogical as well as
historical information relating to Jewish communities in the areas
formerly known as Bohemia and Moravia. Most of this area is today the
Czech Republic.  Because of the very close ties between the
Bohemia-Moravia area and Austria (especially Vienna, where so many
Bohemian and Moravian Jews migrated in the 19th century), our
discussions will also include information related to Austrian Jewish
genealogy. For Slovakian and Hungarian genealogy, please subscribe to
the Hungarian-SIG.  For Galician genealogy, please subscribe to the
Galicia-SIG.  For German genealogy, please subscribe to the
German-Jewish-SIG.

We have established this mailing list in order to facilitate
communication among individuals of similar interests. The mailing list
will be moderated and will follow the guidelines established for the
JewishGen Discussion Group, and other mailing lists hosted by JewishGen.
Please read http://www.jewishgen.org/infofiles/rules.htm particularly
the section on "netiquette."

The material gathered will eventually be made available via a
Bohemia-Moravia Web page. We would be happy to receive any relevant
material you may be willing to submit, including (but not limited to)
research resources, photographs, translations from the Yizkor Books,
business directories, and firsthand anecdotes of life in Bohemia and
Moravia.

For questions concerning material contributions to the SIG, please
