JewishGen Education's Showcase of Student Work

Picture yourself in a gallery where various genealogical presentations are before you. Look around, visit with our students from the past, and be inspired.

We've selected projects that are interesting to read and explore. We focus on sharing ideas rather than providing a how-to or a model of perfection.

When it comes to creativity, there's no one-size-fits-all. Similarly, when solving a genealogical puzzle, there are various tools and technological resources that can be used. Still, solutions can be found only by immersing oneself in the available data.
