    Have you created a profile at Jewish website www.geni.com?

    You can create your account, fill in the names of your parents and grandparents and their parents and with any luck if someone has dig through archives here and has written all the past church and baptism and marriage records the system will recognise it
    and link it.

    Geni is an American commercial genealogy and social networking website, founded in 2006, and owned by MyHeritage, an Israeli private company, since November 2012.

    As of 2021, MyHeritage has kept its genealogical website separate from Geni's website, though you can still match Geni profiles to trees on MyHeritage and to other family tree sites and digitized records.



    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyHeritage

    MyHeritage is an online genealogy platform with web, mobile, and software products and services, introduced by the Israeli company MyHeritage in 2003. Users of the platform can obtain their family trees, upload and browse through photos, and search
    through over 19.9 billion historical records, among other features.

    Headquarters
    Or Yehuda, Israel

    The company is headquartered in Or Yehuda, Israel, with additional offices in Tel Aviv, Israel, Lehi, Utah, Kyiv, Ukraine, and Burbank, California.



    Now you see that Russian borderlands is a place of key importance for Jews as well. They project their interests there as well.

    Naturally, since they had lived there for thousands of years, basically it's all bunch of eastern European Jews who settled Israel.

    What impressed you more, Dallas or Dynasty?

    Dallas is kinda male oriented while Dynasty is all about fashion and drama so I guess you preferred Dallas?

    Dallas was the best, Larry Hagman as the baddie... Sue Ellen/Lind Gray
    drunk wife, Charlene Tilton as little sex bomb Lucy...... Bobby, Pamela/victoria principal (there was even a song in Finland about her).
    Cliff Barnes.... haha, it was just priceless.
    JR's secretaries etc... there was A LOT eye candy in that series.

    Just a classic.

    Dynasty was ok, not as good, always felt like an imitation. Joan Collins
    was good in her role. Heck I hardly recall any other actors from the
    series just now, while could keep on listing the Dallas characters and
    their cousins...
    Oh yes, John Forsythe (played Charlie's voice in original Charlie's
    Angels)... ummm... Heather Locklear?

    far as I can recall.The series I liked best was Deadwood. Saw it well after the initial run, maybe only two years ago.Couldn't really connect with The Wire, Breaking Bad, The Sopranos. There was initial interest but somehow they didn't really connect
    with me...and you?


    Watched bits of Sopranos, it was ok but it felt like TV Godfather. Generally mafia movies bore me with all those Italian clichés so I never became a fan.

    The Wire felt as sci-fi, I watched it tio but didn't really enjoy it.

    This was all in TV era, you watched what was on. Breaking bad was later I already moved online and stopped watching TV.



    I never watched Dallas and I know Dynasty being a phenomena from late 1980s in Yugoslavia.

    But on paper those two shows seem very similar (oil?) so I wondered what's the difference for natives.

    Was JR sorta like an early Trump-like character? A sorta high-end macho winner?


    A winner and macho yes. Also very crooked & cunning & almost completely
    lacking morals. In contrast his brother Bobby was like the nicest guy
    ever. Cliff Barnes (Ken Kercheval real name to my recollection) usually
    got the short end of the stick against JR. Cliff was like JR's business competitor number 1... and was the brother of JR's bother's wife. :)
