I found a Jewish Family I believe wanted the Jewish roots project to be aware of him. He’s also listed few places as notable.

How do I join the Jewish Roots Project and get the badge for it on my profile? Also, is there a way to put the "... has Jewish Roots" sticker on a lot of profiles? Every family member that I currently have on WikiTree (going back to my 5x great-grandparents were all Jewish, and I would like to add the badge to all of them. Thanks, Seth
To join the Jewish Roots Project, all you need to do is ask to join. You just did! I’ll put a badge on your profile. Near the bottom of our Project page (https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Jewish_Roots), you’ll see how to add the Sticker and/or the Category. Welcome aboard!

Best, Jim
See my last post. Guess that why I have 12% Scandinavian DNA. I have your connection too, but would not be part of my 'Y' DNA, since its through mother.
I just saw some research done on my Scots/Flemish ancestors. Seems that that line of Counts of Alost and Ghent in Flanders , were Counts of Holland before that, as their female line from Flanders married into and then carried the Countcy of Holland into Flanders. In fact they used the tittle in Flanders along with their local Alost and Ghent. Gilber de Ghent was a third son of the line. Companion to William of Normandy who had married his 1st cos. Was awarded 172 Manors for his service. His third son Walter de Lindisia on the Council of David I move to Scotland 1104. Founder of the Clan Lindsay. Walter took that name from the holding where he was living in Lincolnshire in his fathers holdings. In ancient times the 'Kingdom of Lindisia'. Now called LindsEy. Best Joseph
