Mapping Jewish life in Edinburgh
Below is a record of the business addresses and homes of Jews living and working in Edinburgh. The majority of the information is derived from the Edinburgh & Leith Post Office Directory 1894, 1911, 1939, 1969* and J. S. Harfield, Commercial Directory, Jews of the United Kingdom, 1894. Other sources are anecdotal, derived from individual family histories, published memoirs and from Mark Gilfillanʼs PhD thesis, Jews in Edinburgh: 1880-1950 (University of Ulster 2012).
* Names with business addresses only have been published to ensure privacy for those still resident at the same address today.
This is by no means a comprehensive record. Many businesses and individuals were not included in the directories. If you can help develop this piece of research by contributing any names, businesses and addresses in Edinburgh between 1894 and 1970 please contact: The Research Network in Jewish Studies at the University of Edinburgh at: http://jewishstudies.div.ed.ac.uk.
