**Sephardic World Meeting - Sunday 13th September 2020**## **THE AMSTERDAM NOTARIAL ARCHIVES***Note for the members of this FB Group: The Amsterdam Notarial Archives also have numerous documents on family and trade relations between the Sephardim of Amsterdam and those of Morocco.*The Amsterdam Notarial Archives (1578-1915) contain millions of documents with largely unknown details about Amsterdammers and their international networks. These include records of trade with Inquisition Spain and Portugal. It is speculated that almost every Sephardic Jew in Amsterdam during the Golden Age may get a mention. Often unremarked, the notarial archives also contain a lot of information on Amsterdam's Ashkenazi community. These documents are being digitized and indexed. Harmen Snel is an expert on the subject. He is an archivist at the Amsterdam City Archives and an eminent specialist on Jewish records, including those of the Portuguese-Jewish community of Amsterdam. Dutch and British audiences will recognize him from his appearances on TV genealogy shows. His early work with Dave Verdooner is foundational to modern Sephardic genealogy, including DutchJewry.org. Harmen continues to teach, work, and publish on the subject.Topic: Amsterdam Notarial Archives Time: Sunday, September 13, 2020, 07:00 PM London (This is 7pm British summertime; GMT +1, which is 2pm in New York)Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89324771091Our supporters on Patreon help cover our costs.
