Jewish Community
Durham County Record Office holds no records of the Jewish community. Most records are held by synagogues, Jewish institutions and Jewish burial societies.
A collection of records of the Jewish community in the Tyne and Wear area is held by Tyne and Wear Archives.
You will find some useful information on Anglo-Jewish history 18th to 20th centuries in The National Archives and on the FamilySearch website which is sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
