City Toronto State Ontario Country Canada Comments: As an Egyptian, it warms my heart to see this website, the attempt to make that part of history alive again... I am a muslim and I've only learned about the the history of the Jews who left Egypt in my adulthood.. I have no doubt in my heart that the diversity that existed in the 40s before the jews left Egypt was a beautiful time of love regardless of our religious differences...and while we can't change history, we can keep the heritage and history alive in our hearts... with love and solidarity to all my jewish brothers and sisters...

City San Francisco State CA Country USA Comments: Hello all! I visit this wonderful site every time I feel nostalgic for my home town Alexandria. I attended L'école de la communauté Isrealite de L'Alexandrie 1955-1965. Wonderful childhood memories of life that will never come back except in quick flashes of our memories. If any one on this site went to my school or lived in Alexandria near Navi Daniel synagogue, Mahatet el Raml, I would love to hear from you. All my love to all of you and our beloved Alexandria the way it was during our childhood.
City Toronto State Ontario Country Canada Comments: I am looking for any history of member of my mother's family. She and her family lived in Alexandria, Egypt and later my mother moved to Cairo during WWII. Her family name was Ades (father's name) and her mother's family was Heffernan or Heifetz. The Heifetz's came from Aleppo, Syria and after 1956 they moved to Jamaica and then to Florida in the USA. Edouard Ades is my uncle. My great uncles were Michael and Abraham Heifetz. Do you have any records of these people?

City Cairo State Cairo Country Egypt Comments: Dear all, I am a student at the American University in Cairo and I am writing my thesis about the events of 1967 in Egypt. I understand that on the first day of the war, Jewish men were arrested and taken to prison, and only released when they agreed to give up their Egyptian citizenship. I am interested in speaking to anyone who has any memories of this event, which deserves to be documented and remembered. Please contact me by email at katie_halls@hotmail.com if you would be willing to speak to me. Best wishes to all,
