This project aims to house and build on the legacy of the decades of genealogical research completed by the late Emil Schafer. Emil's research focused on descendants of the Kunitz, Beller, and Barishanski families from Slonim, Belarus. Through his efforts Emil organized photographs, biographies, and family trees and brought together distant cousins from around the world.

We will make efforts to add all relevant profiles to this project over time.
