The process of returning to Judaism is different for every individual, with each case presenting its own challenges.
<br /> The Genealogical Research Unit of the ISAS can help you navigate the vast territory of genealogical resources
<br /> necessary to investigate your family history.
<br /> The presence of a surname in database of known Sefardi surnames does not prove Jewish ancestry(nor does its
<br /> absence rule out the possibility of Jewish ancestry). In order to ascertain a link to Sefardi ancestors, a thorough
<br /> genealogical study must be conducted. Once your genealogy has been charted, you must
<br /> find documentation showing that your ancestors were connected to a Jewish community, demonstrated Jewish
<br /> customs, or were persecuted by the Iberian Inquisitions.
<br /> Our research team is headed by Dr. Yael Cohen, an experienced genealogical researcher who has travelled to
<br /> archives in Segovia, Simancas, the Canary Islands, Puerto Rico, and Salt Lake City, among others, in order to
<br /> document her own family history. Yael will access the ISAS's world-renowned library of books and documents,as
<br /> well as online databases, libraries, archives, and church and civil repositories to evaluate your current genealogy and
<br /> create a plan of action based on your goals.
<br /> We request a nominal fee to create a basic genealogical report that surveys all of the resources at our disposal.
