The term ''Holocaust, Jewish (1939–1945)'' is used in this outline and the FamilySearch Catalog to describe various records and publications that document the genocide of European Jews during World War II. Before WWII over 80% of the world’s Jews lived in Central and Eastern Europe. During WWII Jewish communities in these areas were systematically destroyed. The Holocaust, migration issues, and naming patterns are three major obstacles in Jewish genealogical research. | The term ''Holocaust, Jewish (1939–1945)'' is used in this outline and the FamilySearch Catalog to describe various records and publications that document the genocide of European Jews during World War II.
