Description

AI Enhanced

This MyHeritage page presents a comprehensive genealogical database focused on **Israel Immigration Lists**, containing an impressive 1,785,598 records that document immigrants to Israel from 1919 onward. The page serves as a searchable gateway to one of the most extensive genealogical resources available for Israeli family history research. The database is particularly significant because it has been digitized and transcribed by MyHeritage from photographs stored in Israeli archives, making historically inaccessible immigration records available to researchers worldwide. **The core content consists of detailed immigration records** that include immigrants' names, birth years, ages, former places of residence, dates and locations of arrival in Israel (aliyah), and destination information within the country. While most of the original content is in Hebrew, MyHeritage's Global Name Translation technology enables users to search the database in English and other languages, significantly expanding its accessibility to international researchers. The page features an advanced search interface with multiple filtering options, allowing users to search by personal details, family relationships (spouse, mother, father), departure and arrival information, and various demographic criteria. **Historically and culturally, this database represents a crucial resource for understanding Israeli immigration patterns and Jewish diaspora movements** throughout the 20th century and beyond. The records begin in 1919, capturing the early waves of Zionist immigration during the British Mandate period and continuing through the establishment of Israel and subsequent decades of immigration from around the world. This makes it invaluable not only for individual genealogical research but also for academic studies of migration patterns, demographic changes, and the formation of modern Israeli society. **Notable features include the integration with related databases** such as British Mandate Palestine naturalization applications (1937-1947) with 206,731 records, the Israel Genealogical Research Association (IGRA) collection with over 5 million records, and Israeli marriage and divorce records with 428,426 entries. The page showcases a sample record of Emanuel Goldberg, a physicist and inventor who arrived on October 11, 1937, demonstrating the type of detailed information available. The database is offered as a free resource, making it accessible to anyone researching Israeli or Jewish family history, from casual family historians to professional genealogists and academic researchers.
