5/31/2012 Very Big News about the All Odessa Database Hi everybody,
More than 40000 records have been added to the All Odessa Database.
I've just indexed the Ellis Island Passenger Lists (28226 records) and the Tashkent Refugees List (14747 records).
The Project of Census and Vital Records translation continue its normal way. There are already 335 documents and more than 3500 records and its number increases every week.
The correction of the index of the 1902-1903 Real Estate Directory is touching its end and will be soon also available online.
I remind you that the All Odessa Database is accessible at the Odessa KehilaLinks (http://kehilainks.jewishgen.org/odessa)
There are other big news coming soon so stay tuned :)
