The Genealogical Research Division of

JewishGen-erosity — Peter & Mary Kalikow Center

The Peter and Mary Kalikow Jewish Genealogy Research Center provides visitors with expert guidance from professional genealogists who specialize in family history and bring deep knowledge of specific regions of Jewish life. In addition to invaluable in-person genealogical research assistance, the Kalikow Center offers access to major genealogical resources such as Ancestry, My Heritage, Family Search and JewishGen’s comprehensive online databases and its collection of Yizkor book translations. Located on the first floor of the Museum of Jewish Heritage — A Living Memorial to the Holocaust, the Center opens three days a week to the public.

With your support, the Center will continue to provide expert genealogical research, expand digital access to vital resources, and present the weekly JewishGen Talks series. Join our community to preserve Jewish family histories, honor lost communities, and ensure these stories endure for generations.
