Hi all,

Malka, I've uploaded it; need assistance including it in the Galicia umbrella. Can you do that for me or tell me how to do it?

Judith Berlowitz Wow, what a beautiful job!

To upload the project to the Galician Umbrella, you have to

1. "Join" the project.

2. Click "Edit" at the upper right of the main body of the project.

3. Simply follow the wiki format for adding clean links at the appropriate spot. (I will add it, and you can copy yours below and delete my addition)

To link a project, again you have to have joined the project you are seeking to link into.

Then in your project click edit alongside "Related Projects"

Next enter into the search box the project you wish to link to, or simply scroll through all the projects alphabetically till you find the one you seek.

Judith Berlowitz Exquisitely beautiful Project Title!

You guys astound me, brava! May I suggest using tags also? They function like keywords, make searching projects much easier. And by putting in a date(s) one day we'll be able to build timelines of projects ...

I have joined your beautiful project. Well done !

Fab, Pam, welcome! Please feel free to edit, add, etc.
For starters, the title needs to be edited. I've asked Malka, but if she's too busy, and you have some time, it should read "Jewish Families from (not of)B..."

Hi again - Malka is working on it.
Cheers,
