I could use help finishing the data entry and indexing of Neil Rosenstein's The Unbroken Chain. See the project at http://www.geni.com/projects/The-Unbroken-Chain-by-Neil-Rosenstein/.... If you have the books, please help finish the project.
I have added a link to R' Moszek Spiegel, who I think that I may be related to. I do need to go back at least one more generation to be able to figure it out.
I´ll only be @Home, for 8 weeks, till mid- January 2014... but THEN, I´ll be back @my Base again, for quite a while and am always willing to assist, with input... etc.
Should anyone be in Florida 20 Sept. - 14 Oct., 2013 or Puerto Rico 15 Dec. 213 - 2 January or Las Vegas 2 Jan. - 9 Jan. 2014... I´d love to meet up and share notes, in "real time"!

I am helping Neil with spelling of the Hungarian place names and personal names, plus adding civil names to the Jewish ones. To do this, I am going through a lot of Hungarian civil records. I just need to be sure that no one else is working on this same stuff so we don't duplicate.
Right now, I am mainly working on Práger, Schick/Schück, Jungreisz, and Duschinsky.

Randy Schoenberg In doing research on my family tree, I found a mistake in the Unbroken Chain when Rosenstein took a previous work which included this same mistake and copied it in. Unfortunately, I received a new book of family history which also took the Unbroken Chain's mistake and carried it forward, even though there is sufficient evidence of this mistake.
Is there room for fixing the book's inaccuracies in this project? If I can show documentation of the problem, and show that the original work that Rosenstein carried forward is flawed, will that matter?
Daniel Lawrence Shimoff Excellent! Dr. Neil Rosenstein would welcome any information you could provide to rectify the mistake, as he is currently working on a totally revised edition of the "The Unbroken Chain".

Unfortunately I still have not been able to mark as deceased several relatives who were added to Geni by others. A couple of widows still receive announcements of their upcoming anniversaries which can no longer be celebrated, which is hurtful. I sent a message to ask this to be changed but have still been unable to mark in these changes.
