Aliyah to Israel in the 1920's

[Yehuda Herskowitz]

X-No-archive: yes
Dear all,

I am trying to determine the genealogy of several persons who emigrated to Israel
in the 1920's. Can anyone point me in the right direction, where I could research
the genealogy of people who made aliyah in the 1920's thereabouts, give or take a
decade or two. Would there be any passport applications, or personal information
submitted to any civil authorities? Were there any organisations either in Israel
or abroad, which kept records of people who made aliyah? How about census lists?
Should I be looking for any other information?

Thank you very much,

Yehuda Herskowitz

Dear Yehuda,

Start with searching the AID All Israel Database. It included over one
million lines of records including many immigration files. The database is
searchable in English and Hebrew. Go to the Israel Genealogy Research
Association https://genealogy.org.il/ IGRA register for the site (it's
free) and then start using the database.
