User:Abraham chan

My name is Lars Menk; my pseudonym, Abraham Chan, is the name of one of my Jewish ancestors. Born in Bremen, Germany in 1961, I studied social and economic communications (diploma degree). I have done genealogical research since 1981. In 2005, after nine years of research, A Dictionary of German-Jewish Surnames was published by a renowned publishing house in the USA.
