Family Migration

Like many Jewish families our family came from the small shtetls  in Ukraine. Hundred years later we are all over the globe, uncles and cousins, brothers and sisters. Ukraine, Russia, Seattle, Philadelphia, New York, Los Angeles, Rome, Tel Aviv,  Yafa, Jerusalem and many more.
From one small shtetl in Ukraine to hundreds of cities. Do you want to see how it happened?
Year by year? City by city? Country by Country? Do you want to see how your family spread around the world?
Tsal Kaplun Foundation together with company Map4us is going to help.
