On the occasion of its 25th anniversary, the Jewish Genealogical Society of Canada (Toronto)
plans to produce a book written by its members.  Our aim is to publish by the Fall, 2011.

Do you have a family story??  Here are a few suggested topics:
    A surprising breakthrough in my ancestral research
    Life in my ancestral shtetl
    Hidden secrets from my family’s past
    Questions I would have wanted to ask my great, great grandparent (or any other ancestor)
    How my ancestors would react to life in the 21st century
    A person from my past who was light years ahead of his/her time
    Characters in my family that Damon Runyan or Sholom Aleichem would have found
interesting
    Other topics/ideas

All contributors must be current members of the JGS of Canada (Toronto).
Submissions, no longer than 1,000 words, will be reviewed by an editorial committee.  The
