An alphabetical index of key Jewish families in Lodz drawn from three books. The members of these families contributed to the amazing growth of both culture and industry in pre-World War II Lodz. The three books are:
  • Szkice z dziejow Gminy Zydowskiej oraz cmentarza w Lodzi (Sketches from the annals of the Jewish community as well as the cemeteries of Lodz), by Izaak Kersz, Lodz: Oficyna Bibliofilow, 1996.
  • Zydzi w Lodzi (The Jews in Lodz), issued in Lodz during the Jewish culture exhibition in 1990
  • "Jews in Lodz 1820-1939", a series of 16 articles that appeared in Polin: A Journal of Polish Jewish Studies, Vol. 6, Institute for Polish-Jewish Studies. Oxford: Blackwell, 1991.
Approximately 600 families are listed. Many of the cited persons are related to each other. As an aid to genealogists, a comment section has been added in which some of these relationships have been identified. Genealogical Data Systems, P. O. Box 6852, San Jose, CA 95150, USA.

   This bibliography is by no means complete, but contains a representative sampling of  important articles and books published about Lodz, as well as books of special interest to Jewish genealogists. Most of the large number of personal narratives about the Lodz ghetto are not included in this bibliography.
   According to the Organization of Former Residents of Lodz in Israel (OFRLI), about 800 books have been written about the Jewish community of Lodz before and during W.W.II. OFRLI maintains a large library in Tel Aviv containing many of these books.
  *Most library locations were obtained by searching Worldcat (in May 1999), which contains records of any type of material cataloged by OCLC member libraries. Libraries in Germany were located using DBI-LINK. See the Lodz main page for links to additional libraries not listed here.
