| Question/Topic: |
I am looking for statistics on the population of Jews in
Alachua County. Specifically, I would like to know the
latest numbers and percentage of the population, the
numbers and percentage for 1900, and the numbers and
percentage for 1850. Can you help??

| Answer/Pointer: |
The Jewish Museum of Florida has put a page of Florida
Jewish history up at
http://www.floridajewish.com/history.html
There are some population figures there.
There is a law against asking people their religious
affiliation for census information. There are some other
sources of the information you require at
