Paulette Bronstein: Creating a family history book using MyCanvas

Paulette Bronstein was born in Augusta, Georgia, lived in Woodmere, New York for 56 years and has resided in Aventura Florida since 2003. She began a search for her missing father in 1994 and has been on an extraordinary genealogical journey since then. She has researched her family history during multiple trips to Alaska, South Carolina, Georgia, and Lithuania. A website for her grandfather’s shtetl, Salakas Lithuania, was created by her in 2013 (https://kehilalinks.jewishgen.org/Salakas/).

Paulette has been the President of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Greater Miami since 2019. She created four different family history books for her children and grandchildren using the MyCanvas program. Hoping that her children and grandchildren might one day be interested in their family history, Paulette decided that creating these books would be an appropriate culminating activity to her 25 plus years of genealogy research.
