Good morning everyone, If you are researching family from Lithuania, especially if they are of Jewish families, you may be interested in 40 new microfilms of Jewish vital records of Lithuania. These are now available through the LDS Family History Library system. The new microfilms were created between October 2001 and April 2002 at the Lithuanian State Historical Archives in Vilnius. These microfilms are to be available to borrow at any local Family History Center. An index of these microfilms can be found at: http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/FHLC/VilnaMicrofilmsIndex.htm <A HREF="http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/FHLC/VilnaMicrofilmsIndex.htm"> Locality Index to Lithuanian Jewish Vital Records Microfilms</A> We hope that some of you find this to be exciting and helpful information. We thank Gary Mokotoff, Editor of Avotaynu Magazine for passing this information on to others. Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family. God Bless America!
