Mission

The mission of the Jewish Genealogy Society of Cleveland (JGSC) is to foster Jewish family history and genealogical research.

To accomplish its mission, the JGSC:

• educates the public and disseminates information on Jewish records, sources, techniques, archives and libraries, and has done so since its inception in 1982.
• maintains its own research library and encourages the collection of genealogical material and family histories.
• assists out-of-town researchers looking for their Cleveland roots.
