A bibliographic index of more than 5,500 rabbis from the 18th to early 20th centuries compiled from such noted biographical dictionaries as Ohalei Shem, Eleh Ezkerah, etc. Numerous indexes include given name, surname and town. Each entry cites its source, which can then be utilized to glean detailed information about the individual. A number of the individuals cited died during the Holocaust and immediate post-war period. This work is included among the sources indexed by the popular Jewish genealogical reference work: Where Once We Walked.
