[Cz-L] One of our friends is telling his fascinating story

The Jewish Genealogical Society of Montreal (Canada), in association
with the Jewish Public Library, is please to present:

Dr. Simon Kreindler
"From Galicia to Barbados, Guatemala, Montreal and Toronto - a genealogist's
journey"
Simon Kreindler grew up in Barbados, studied medicine in Montreal and since
1971,
has practiced psychiatry in Toronto. He has been researching his family's
Galician roots
for many years and has been able to trace his paternal and maternal lines
back to the
late 1700s. In 1995, his serendipitous discovery of a first cousin in
Winnipeg,
previously thought to have been lost along with his entire family in the
Shoah, infused
his search with new energy. After visiting Czernowitz and his family's
shtetls of
Okna, Zablotov, Ilince and Solotwina (in present-day Ukraine) he embarked on
writing a memoir for his children and grandchildren.

The meeting will be held on Monday, May 12, 2014, 7:30 pm
