Most of the contents of this web site were provided by my colleague and fellow researcher Anatolij Chayesh. Our goal for this web site is to display articles, lists, documents and photos, from mostly Anatolij's research of the ZEIMELIS Jewish Community. Since Anatolij's native language is Russian, this web site hosts many of his original works in Russian.
