== Polish Aliyah Passports == | |||
In the 1930s, thousands of Polish Jews left Europe and traveled to what was then British Mandate Palestine. The passports of those Polish emigrants have been preserved in the Archives of the Jewish Historical Institute of Poland. The collection consists of 3,754 Polish passports that include photos and signatures, and information about emigration route. They also include date/place of birth, last place of residence, occupation, marital status, and information about children. JRI Poland has extracted the surnames, along with the towns of births and residence that apply to those surnames. The list of Jewish surnames can be found '''[https://jri-poland.org/jhi/aliyah-passport_surn_new.htm here.]''' Copies of the passports should be ordered from the archives of the Emanuel Ringelblum Jewish Historical Institute. Click '''[https://jri-poland.org//jhi/jri-jhi-aliyah-passport.htm here]''' for more information about ordering an original and to see examples of passport scans. | |||
