SZ Begins Genealogy Project
Cong. Shaarey Zedek has
embarked on a project to col-
lect family genealogical re-
cords of its members to be
housed in the synagogue
archives.
Using a "family tree" dia-
gram prepared by Judy
Cantor and called "The
Family Story," members
will record their family his-
tories going back about five
generations. Beatrice Mil-
ler is the sponsor of the
genealogy project.
Information gained from
the project will be com-
puterized, under the direc-
tion of Dr. Sidney Lutz,
making the information
easily retrievable.
Bar and Bat Mitzva
candidates are especially
being involved in the
project, to develop a lin-
kage with the older gen-
erations, Mrs. Cantor
said.
Betty Starkman, a
genealogy specialist who
teaches an introduction to
Jewish genealogy at the
Midrasha, offered
guidelines to the Shaarey
Zedek membership on how
to trace one's Jewish ori-
gins. A videotape on the
subject is available at
Shaarey Zedek.
Philly Plans Anne Frank House
The week of Nov. 28 will
be proclaimed Anne Frank
Week in Philadelphia by
Mayor Bill Green, largely
because of the efforts of Dr.
Franklin Littell and Marcia
Sachs Littell and the Na-
tional Institute on the
Holocaust. That week also
signals the opening of the
institute's fund-raising
drive to establish an Anne
Frank House in Philadel-
phia, the first in the U.S.
"The Anne Frank House
will be Philadelphia's
chance to be first once
again," said Dr. Littell, a
Methodist minister and pro-
fessor of religion at Temple
University, "as we were
with the first monument to
the • victims of the
Holocaust, the first syllabus
for teaching the Holocaust
in public schools, and the
first conference on the
Holocaust which has be-
come an annual event for
teachers in Philadelphia."
The Anne Frank House
will be an interfaith project
geared to schoolchildren's
needs.
