Nancy's sole motivation in authoring Nechama's List and her previous large database entitled Jewish Records in the Family History Library Catalog is to assist Jewish genealogical researchers in identifying their ancestors.
Nancy speaks of "the thrill of discovery, the joy of finding a new generation of names. This teaches us our heritage, our origins and our roots. Perhaps, with the use of Nechama's List, a great grandparent can whisper to us, 'Now I can be found'. This is the way we can honor and respect our ancestors by adding their names in their correct places in our family tree."
