Morasha is distributed to members three times a year (February, June, and October).
It contains both articles from the general genealogy press as well as articles written by our members. We are able to review the newsletters from many IAJGS societies and reprint articles of interest. We also encourage our members to submit articles on their own genealogical experiences.
The newsletter also contains society information including our President’s message, a summary of JGSI board business, recent meetings in review,as
well as upcoming JGSI and genealogical events in the area.
