JGSGB Chilterns RG: "Genealogy in Belgium and Luxembourg" by Marie Cappart

Wednesday 4th February 2026, 19:30-21:30
Online

Belgium and Luxembourg! Those countries so close on a map have common stories but their genealogical resources may differ greatly from
research in the UK.

How do you start a research there, especially if you’re living far away? What are the main sources?

How do you juggle with records from those neighbouring countries when they have so much History in common but also many differences?

And how to track your Jewish ancestors in those countries?

If you have ancestors in these areas, this lecture is a must attend!
