Finding Our Fathers
In this work Dan Rottenberg shows how to successfully trace your Jewish family back for generations by probing the memories of living relatives; by examining marriage licenses, gravestones, ship passenger lists, naturalization records, birth and death certificates, and other public documents; and by looking for clues in family traditions and customs.
The Ketcheson Family
William K. Ketchison was born 7 July 1759 in Howden, Yorkshire, England. His parents were William Ketchison (1736-1763) and Sally Ayr. He emigrated in 1775 and settled in Virginia. He fought with the British in the American Revolution. He married Mary Rull (1761-1842) 16 March 1779 in Bedford, New York. They had ten children. They migrated to Canada in 1783 and settled first in Nova Scotia and then moved to Sidney, Ontario. William died in 1848 in Belleville, Ontario. Descendants and relatives lived throughout Ontario.
Broadening Jewish History
Key themes and issues relevant to writing the social history of the Jews in the modern period are brought to the fore here in a way that is accessible both to professional historians and to educated readers with an interest in Jewish history. Some of the articles are programmatic and argumentative, others are case studies. Together they create a strong, coherent volume that demonstrates the advantages of the social historical perspective as a tool for interpreting the Jewish world.
