Unlocking Archives: Finding personal treasures in the haystack

Hello, my name is Erez, and I have hundreds of hours of experience in searching for old documents, particularly in Central Europe. Finding a document isn’t complicated if you know exactly what you’re looking for. The challenge is that you rarely do. Usually, there’s a story or a need, but no clear way to turn it into a simple search. My expertise lies in taking a vague tale—something a person might have heard from their grandmother—and using the clues within it to uncover documents that shed light on the real events.
