First published in 1960, and revised through 1991, Malcolm Stern's First American Jewish Families was a groundbreaking work of genealogy, detailing the trees of 600 early Jewish-American families from 1645-1988. Stern's work is viewable online at the American Jewish Archives.
Many of the families in Stern's book are also on Geni. Below is a list of the families with links to the Geni profiles of the progenitors. Note that Stern counted 600 families by breaking larger families into separate trees. The number of distinct families appear to be about 445.
Project is complete with 464 profiles in it.
