This is a general site for links to Sages, Torah Luminaries, venerable Hasidic dynasties and illustrious Rabbinic lineages that appear on the main Geni website.

We're just starting out, please feel free to help and insert additional leading profiles.

"Main Copy" only refers to the fact that the profile probably is merged into Geni's Big Tree.

Contents

Bible Figures

These Bible personalities are listed ONLY for reference! Please do NOT merge with these profiles. Instead try and find the most recent famous person in your tree and merge with those. This is because merging directly with a Bible Figure, creates needless work for yourself and whoever has to then merge the 90 intervening generations from them. These older lines are almost certainly ALREADY in the tree!

As I happened to start the biblical merge with some tree entered by non-Jews, most of the profiles are managed by them. Please contact Shmuel Aharon Kam regarding any questions about these lines.

Much more information on the Biblical Tree Merge page.
