I don't know about YEC but there are some Jewish anti-evolutionists. Dr.
Moshe Top from Ben Gurion University, Beersheva Israel wrote a letter to
the Creation Research Soc. Quarterly Sept, 1983, p.122 He is saying that
at a meeting of Orthodox Jewish Scientists a paper was well received which
said that Archaeopteryx was a fraud. He agreed with the assessment of
archaeopteryx. I have run into at least one other but I can't find the
reference.
