The Jewish Genealogy Society of Cleveland adopted bylaws in 2011 by which to organize and operate the society. The bylaws were revised July 11, 2018, and we are seeking to better align them with our current practices; clarify and standardize the language; and eliminate redundancy. We are posting our mission statement to begin the process. Thank you!

The purpose of the JGSC is to:

• promote interest in researching family genealogy and in the collection of family documents, history, and records;

• provide education to the organization's members and the Cleveland Jewish community about genealogical research information;

• assist people in conducting Jewish genealogy research; and maintain a Jewish genealogical library
