Genealogy Research

Welcome to our family history section. We are working on compiling and publishing our family genealogies on this site, or at least linking this page to another primary genealogy host. This is a major undertaking and we invite you to join us on this adventure.

Horesh Family
Alain Farhi has spent a very long time assembling a beautiful website about his family. There are very many Horesh names listed at his site. Though Farhi and Horesh have different origins, the two families converged in Iraq. It is a great deal of fun to look at. You can link to him at www.farhi.org.

I have a large personal database of Horesh family information, including some historical narrative. Use the search box below to browse the names and genealogical information. I am working on posting some narrative in the near future.

First Name:
Reading and learning about my heritage is critical to understanding the family's story.

I have compiled a list of links to Jewish Iraqi Information and to other sites with information about the Horesh and related familes.

Click here for a Recommended Reading List, based on one compiled by Rahel Musleah of www.rahelsjewishindia.com.

Gisser Family
The genalogical information I have is the direct result of work done by my uncle, Arthur Gisser. You can download the most recent versions I have in Adobe Acrobat by clicking on the family name: Gisser or Leibowitz. Any information can be sent to me, and I will forward it to him, unless he gives me the okay to post a direct link.

Below is a link the the Jewishgen site, listing those members of the Gisser family from Yatchev (Yanachev) that perished. Gisser Victims in Yatchev. orhere.


Hall/Peter Family
Shannon Hoban Wibble is working on assembling the HALL genealogical information. Like all of us, she works on this in fits and start. I will check to see if she is willing to have a link to her email here before posting it. In the meantime, those who know her can contact her directly.

Dana’s brother and sister-in-law, Rick and Jen, have a nice family web site. It hasn't been updated since the twins arrived, but they're working on it.

Iorio/Napoli Family
To date, the only information I have on this is on paper and has been compiled by Ted Iorio. I will try to contact Ted about electronic files and ways to get and post information.

If you have any information you would like to contribute, we would be very grateful. Please email us anything that my be useful.

Thanks
