[Cz-L] Name Changes database NEW on IGS website

Czernowitzers... This message from Lea Haber Gedalia in this morning's

Dear Friends,
 
Name Changes database NEW on IGS website .
The names of some 300,000 Israelis who legally changed their name after
Israel became a country can be searched at the Israel Genealogical
Society
(IGS) website at http://www.isragen.org.il/siteFiles/1/618/7927.asp.
The results are the name of the person before and after the change and
the date (sometimes only month/year) when the name change was posted in
the Yalkut Hapirsumim (Official Publications) of the Israeli government.
You must search for names using the Hebrew alphabet.
If you do not know how to spell a name in Hebrew, use Stephen P. Morse's
English to Hebrew transliteration at
http://stevemorse.org/hebrew/eng2heb.html.
The project was made possible by a grant in 2010 by the International
Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies We hope this serves all
family researchers
Lea Haber Gedalia, IGS Chairperson Israel

Best,
