C DJC RECORDS OF THE HULL JEWISH COMMUNITY 1767-2012

Accession Number: 11/27

Historical Background: The existence of a Jewish Community in Hull can be dated at least to the 18th century. More solid evidence can be found from the early 19th century and census estimates provided by the chief Rabbi suggest that in 1851 the Jewish population in Hull numbered 200. According to the Jewish Yearbook almost half a century later in 1898 the community was 1500 members strong. By 1900, just two years later, this figure had risen to 2000 and by 1910 stood at 2500, at which level it remained until 1935. By 1946, the Jewish community is believed to have numbered 2000 and remained so until 1955. Between 1955 and 1965 the population rose to 2500, again achieving its highest recorded levels. However, since the 1960s the Jewish community in Hull has seen a dramatic decline, and in 1990 stood at just 1120, with numbers falling even further to just 670 in 2004.

This 300 year history is documented by the records of a host of Jewish organisations and governing boards; in the records of individual congregations and synagogues that have existed at various times throughout this period, and in the records of societies, charities and clubs established by the community to provide for its leisure and social life. It is these records that constitute the Records of the Hull Jewish Community.

Congregations and Synagogues

The beginnings of a Jewish community in Hull can be traced to the late 18th century. The earliest concrete evidence dates from 1766 when an Isaac Levy was known to be occupying a property in Church Lane. Following the Gordon Riots of 1780, the community acquired a former Catholic Chapel in Posterngate ruined during the riots, and restored it for use as a synagogue, practicing the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual. This is the earliest known synagogue in Hull. Disagreement amongst the community in 1809 led to a rival synagogue being established at property in Parade Row, Princes Dock, under the leadership of Joseph Lyon.

The congregations of the two synagogues were re-united in 1826 with the building of the Hull Hebrew Congregation synagogue in Robinson Row. The first foundation stones were laid by Solomon Meyer (of the Posterngate Synagogue) and by Israel Jacobs (of the Parade Row Synagogue) on 27 February 1826. The synagogue opened on the 18 June 1827, was rebuilt and re-consecrated on the 26 September 1852.

Tensions amongst the Hull Hebrew Congregation at Robinson Row again arose in 1902, leading to the establishment of the Western Synagogue in Linnaeus Street by a break-away group of families. In September 1902 Mr O.E. D'Avigdor Goldsmid laid the foundation stone at Linnaeus Street, and the synagogue was consecrated by Chief Rabbi Reverend Dr Adler in May 1903. The Western Synagogue remained at this location until its closure in 1994, and continued to practice the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual.

The remaining community at Robinson Row synagogue renamed themselves the Hull Old Hebrew Congregation and established a new synagogue in Osborne Street, where the community continued to worship in accordance with the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual until 1993. The foundation of the synagogue at Osborne Street was laid in 1902. The synagogue opened on 10 September 1903 at which point the Robinson Row synagogue closed. The Osborne Street synagogue was enlarged in 1932, destroyed by German air raid in 1941, and reopened in 1955.

In addition to the Hull Old Hebrew Congregation and Hull Western Synagogues, a third Orthodox congregation, which came to be known as the Hull Central Synagogue, was established in 1886 at Waltham Street aka School Street. This congregation accommodated an expanding Jewish population in Hull resulting from eastern European immigration. In 1914 the synagogue moved from its initial location in Waltham Street to new premises in Cogan Street where it remained until destroyed during an air raid in 1940. A large house in West Parade was used for worship 1940-1951, and from 1951 the congregation worshipped at Synagogue premises in Park Street. The Hull Central Synagogue remained open until 1976 when it closed and congregants joined either the Western or Old Hebrew Congregations.

In 1992, following decades of discussions, the Western Synagogue and Old Hebrew Congregations officially amalgamated to become the Hull Hebrew Congregation. The old synagogues were subsequently sold and a new building was constructed at Pryme Street, Anlaby, Hull, to accommodate the new united congregation. The Pryme Street Synagogue was consecrated on 2 April 1995 by the Chief Rabbi and remains the home of the active Hull Hebrew Congregation.

Currently, Hull is home to two active Jewish groups: The Hull Hebrew Congregation at the Pryme Street synagogue, practicing the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual; and the Ne've Shalom Synagogue, established 1964 at Great Gutter Lane, practicing the Reform ritual.

Further synagogues, also practicing the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual, are known to have been located at Dagger Lane aka Ten Faith Lane (founded 17th century and demolished around 1700), Prince Street (founded 19th century), and Nile Street (founded 1878). Former Missions, also practicing the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual, are known to have been located at Great Thornton Street Synagogue (founded 1885 and closed 1900), Great Passage Street Synagogue (founded 1914), and Adelaide Street Synagogue (founded 1926). This collection does not contain records relating to any of these synagogues. References can also be found to a 'New Hebrew Congregation', formerly the New Hebrew Burial Society, (closed 1964), founded 1916, practicing the Ashkanazi Orthodox ritual, at Lower Union Street Synagogue, and formerly at 4 Beadle Terrace, Goodwin Street, Hull. Some passing references to this congregation are to be found within this collection.

Jewish Organisations

Over the centuries the Hull Jewish Community has been served by a vast number of voluntary societies and clubs, communal committees, boards and councils. Notable organisations governing the spiritual life of the community included the Communal Chevra Kadisha, a Jewish burial society founded in the early 20th century to oversee the correct burial of deceased members of the community. They have also included the Hull Board of Shechita which was established in the 1930s to oversee the provision of kosher food for the community and was composed of representative members of each of the congregations in Hull. In addition the Communal Chedar, or Talmud Torah, has provided for the spiritual education and preparation of Jewish children for participation in the Jewish way of life.

Organisations have also been founded to protect and represent the interests of the community in wider Hull Society. Such bodies have included the Hull Jewish Representative Council which was established in the early 20th century to speak on behalf of the Jewish population of Hull and was responsible for keeping the community up to date with matters affecting them through the publication of the Hull Jewish Watchman newsletter. They have also included the Hull Public Relations Committee and the Hull Trades Advisory Council established in the mid 20th century.

Numerous organisations have been established to promote the welfare of the community, most notably the Hull Hebrew Board of Guardians, which was established in 1880 to co- ordinate and oversee charity efforts on behalf of the Jewish poor, sick and elderly in Hull. These organisations have also included the Hull Hebrew Ladies Benevolent Society, a late 19th century society providing financial aid and support to poor Jews, the Hull Jewish Friendship Club established in the mid 20th century , the Hull Jewish Blind Society, the Hull Orphan Aid Society, and the Hull B’nai B’rith mens and women’s lodges and youth organisation.

The community was active in aiding immigrant Jews coming to Hull from eastern Europe and significantly aided the welfare of these people through the establishement of the Hull Hebrew Transmigration Aid Society and the Hull Jewish Association for the Protection of Girls and Women which sought to ensure the safe passage of Jewish females through the port whilst awaiting transport to onward destinations.

The Hull community has also been very active in participating in national and international issues through the establishment of various regional branches of wider associations. Such branches have included the Labour Friends of Israel, a political party aiming to promote co- operation between Labour parties in Britain and Israel, and the Women’s International Zionist Organisation, a voluntary organsation aiming to improve the social welfare and education of people living in Israel.

In addition to these organisations various societies have been established to provide for the social life of the Jewish Community in Hull. Such societies notably include the Hull Judeans Maccabi, a dramatic and sporting society incorporating cricket, football, rugby, table tennis and drama clubs amongst others. Other societies include the Hull Jewish Institute, Hull University JSOC, the Parkfield Centre, and the Hull Jewish Drama Club.

Description: This series contains records relating to the Hull branch of the Association of Jewish Ex-Service Men and Women (AJEX). AJEX is a national association of regional branches formed for the benefit of Jewish ex-service men and women, to commemorate fallen comrades, to provide aid for needy ex-servicemen and women, and to educate future generations against the horrors of WWII. The Hull branch of AJEX was originally formed as the 'Duveen Section' of the Royal British Legion in 1929, after a group of ex-soldiers from Hull attended a national Kaddish at Whitehall marking the erection of the Cenotaph to the memory of fallen Jewish servicemen. The 90th anniversary of the Kaddish was commemorated in Hull with a remembrance service arranged by Hull AJEX Branch Chairman Perris Coupland. The Hull branch of AJEX has been responsible for arranging annual Remembrance Day services on which occasions parades of members were held and attended by various civic dignitaries including the many Jewish Lord Mayors and Sheriffs of Hull. Note that the association's national headquarters is situated in London and is responsible for the founding of the Jewish Military Museum in London which hosts 'The Record of Honor', a database of Jewish ex-servicemen and women who served in the British Armed Forces during the period 1939-1960.

C DJC/1/2 Hull B'nai B'rith Lodges 1909-1990

Description: This series contains records relating to the Hull branch of the Order of B'nai B'rith. B'nai Brith is a worldwide Jewish brotherhood which was founded in New York in 1843 and which is guided by principles of benevolence, harmony, and brotherly love. The purpose of the order is to unite all Jews, promoting their interests, developing the moral character of the Jewish people, developing principles of philanthropy, honour and patriotism, supporting science and art, alleviating poor and needy, aiding victims of persecution, and providing for the aged, widows, and orphans. In Hull a men’s lodge was established in the 1930s, followed later by a women's lodge and a youth organisation. In the late 20th century the men's and women's lodges began to effect closer co-operation which eventually led to their amalgamation as the Hull B'nai B'rith Joint Lodge.

Description: This series contains records relating to the Board of Shechita, a management Board established to oversee the provision of kosher foodstuffs to the Hull Jewish population. According to Jewish Law only meat from certain animals can be consumed, and these animals must be killed and prepared in accordance with kashrut (Jewish dietary laws). This involves the slaughter of animals in accordance with the process of shechita by a trained and certified individual known as the shochet. In addition, only food prepared by Jewish persons using kosher utensils is permitted to be consumed under the limitations of kashrut. As part of its work the Board was responsible for appointing a shochet for the city, overseeing the import of kosher livestock and food stuffs such as bread, milk and cheese, licensing and regulating kosher butchers and food venders in the city, and approving public venues for kosher functions.

At this meeting the Councils of the Hull Central Synagogue, Hull Western Synagogue, and Hull Old Hebrew Congregations agreed to the formation of a communal chevra kadisha with the purpose of overseeing the management of the wider community's cemeteries, funerals, and memorials. Respect for the dead is an issue of great significance to the Jewish community and when a member dies the persons body must be properly prepared for burial during a ritual ‘tahara’ (purification) before being dressed in ‘tachrichim’ (white cotton garments). After dressing and placing in a casket watchers are assigned to guard the body until the funeral. Immediate family of the deceased undertake a week long period of mourning during which the appointed members of the community will provide sustenance for them. In addition, annual memorial observances are kept to mark the ‘Yahrtzeits’ (anniversaries) of deceased family members. The chevra kadisha receives contributions from community members in order that it might undertake the proper burial and memorialisation of deceased members.

Description: This series contains records relating to Hull Branch of the Council of Christians and Jews. In October 1942 a National Council of Christians and Jews was formed by Chief Rabbi Joseph H. Hertz and Archbishop of York and then Cantebury William Temple. Its aims were to counter religious and racial intolerance in Britain, to promote understanding and goodwill between Christians and Jews throughout society, to encourage fellowship between Christian and Jewish youth groups in education and cultural activities, and to promote co- operation directed towards post-war reconstruction efforts following WWII. Regional branches soon followed and a Hull Council was established on the 27 March 1949. An international Council was eventually formed in 1974, although discussion of the need for an international Council had initially taken place in 1946.

C DJC/1/9 Hull Hebrew Board of Guardians 1912-2010

Description: This series contains records of Hull Hebrew Board of Guardians, registered charity number 227049. The Board was a governing body established in 1880 to co-ordinate and oversee charity efforts on behalf of the Jewish poor, sick and elderly in Hull. It worked in much the same way as the English Boards of Guardians established by local authorities to oversee poor relief in the localities. The Hull Hebrew Board of Guardians was officially registered by the Board of Deputies' Charities Registration Committee at a meeting on 2 Feb 1953. By the late 20th century much of the Board’s work focused on the provision of care to the elderly through the maintainence of a care home and many of its original functions were no longer relevant. A a major reorganisation took place in 1996-1997 under which the Board retained its charity status and registered charity number and continued its existence as Hull Jewish Community Care. From this point the Board's work focused on the maintenance and management of a residence providing care for the Jewish elderly. This residence was established by the Baord in 1954 and has been known variously as the Hull Jewish Flatlets, the Jewish Aged Home, and Menorah House. The home was managed by the The Flatlets/Aged Homes Management Committee, under the auspices of the Board of Guardians. The running costs of the home were funded by members contributions and by appeals to various charitable trusts. Major planning for re-building and modernisation work was initiated in 1995 and appeals to various charitable organisations for donations to fund the work were made in 1995 and then again in 1997. At this time a Building and Maintenance Committee was established with Conrad Segelman as Chairman, and with other committee members including V. Appleson, A. Collins, E. Pearlman, S. Pearlman, H. Rose, J. Rose, L. Simmons, G. Silver, S. Burnley, and Mrs A. Segelman. Due to dwindling numbers and financial troubles the home closed in 2012 and the work of the Board in this respect was wound up.

C DJC/1/14 Hull Jewish Association for the 1910-1914 Protection of Girls and Women

Description: This series contains records of the Hull Committee of the Jewish Association for the Protection of Girls and Women (JAPGW). The Association had its roots in the work of the 'Jewish Ladies' Society for Preventive and Rescue Work', established in 1885 by Lady Constance Battersea, daughter of Sir Anthony de Rothschild. The Ladies' Society sought to provide aid and protection to immigrant Jewish girls and young women arriving in London where many arrived alone and vulnerable to trafficking. In 1889 a gentleman's committee was formed under the Chairmanship of Claude Goldsmid Montefiore, cousin to Lady Battersea, to supervise anti-trafficking work at the ports and docks of London, and it is this Committee that formed the basis for the development of the JAPGW over the following decade. The Hull Committee of the JAPGW was formed at the end of 1912 as a Sub-Committee of the Hull Hebrew Board of Guardians. The Hull Committee consisted of B.S. Jacobs, Esq., Chairman, Alderman H. Feldman, J.P., Vice-Chairman, I. Harris, Esq., Treasurer, M.V. Gosschalk, Esq., Honorary Secretary and Honorary Solicitor, and Mr. W. Schultz, 2 St. James' Square, Hull, Investigating and Dock Officer.

Description: This series contains records of the Hull Judeans Maccabi Association, formerly the Hull Judeans Sports Club, incorporating the Hull Judeans Cricket Club.

Members were involved in fund raising events for charitable causes, both Jewish and non-Jewish. The organisation continued throughout WWII despite shortage of members due to service, and a junior branch was set up at this time.

Description: This series contains records of Hull Hebrew Congregation, later Hull Old Hebrew Congregation, formed in 1826 with the building of a Synagogue in Robinson Row to house the re-united congregation of two formerly rival synagogues. The first foundation stones of Robinson Row were laid by Solomon Meyer (of the former Posterngate Synagogue) and by Israel Jacobs (of the former Parade Row Synagogue) on 27 February 1826. The Robinson Row Synagogue opened 18 June 1827, and was rebuilt and re- consecrated on 26 September 1852. In 1902 the Congregation removed to premises in Osborne Street and the new Synagogue was officially opened on 10 September 1903. The Osborne Street Synagogue was enlarged in 1932, before being severely damaged during a German air raid in 1941. Repairs were undertaken at length and the synagogue reopened in 1955. The Congregation continued to worship at Osborne Street in accordance with the Ashkenazi Orthodox ritual until 1993. At this time the premises were sold following the amalgamation in March 1992 of the Hull Western Synagogue and the Hull Old Hebrew Congregation to form the currently active Hull Hebrew Congregation.

C DJC/2/3 Hull Central Synagogue 1888-1962

Description: This series contains the records of Hull Central Hebrew Congregation, more often referred to as Hull Central Synagogue. The congregation was initially established in 1886 at Waltham Street aka School Street to accommodate the expanding Jewish population resulting from Russian immigration. In 1914 the congregation moved from its initial location in Waltham Street to new premises in Cogan Street where it remained until the Cogan Street Synagogue building was destroyed during an air raid in 1940. A large house in West Parade was used for worship 1940-1951, and from 1951 the congregation worshipped at synagogue premises in Park Street. After a prolonged period of decreasing membership Hull Central Synagogue closed in 1976. At this time most members of the former Central congregation joined Hull Western Synagogue, though a number became members of Hull Old Hebrew Congregation.

C DJC/2/4 Hull Hebrew Congregation 1990-2012

Description: This series contains the records of Hull Hebrew Congregation, the current active Jewish Orthodox congregation based at Pryme Street Synagogue. The congregation was officially formed on 31 May 1992 when members of the Hull Western Synagogue at Linnaeus Street and Hull Old Hebrew Congregation at Osborne Street agreed a constitution for the new united congregation. This was the result of long decades of negotiations regarding the possibility of a united synagogue, and was driven by a decreasing Jewish population in Hull and the need for more suitable accommodation for worship. In 1991 an 'Ad Hoc Planning and Collaboration Committee' was established to co-ordinate the work necessary to achieve the establishment of the new congregation. The committee operated under the leadership of Richard Bermitz, Philip Daniels, and Max Gold, and aided by Cyril Rosenston, Barry Donn, Anthony Rowland, Edward Pearlman, and Conrad Segalman. Sub- committees for Finance under the leadership of Anthony Rowland and Edward Pearlman, and for drafting a new Constitution under the leadership of Conrad Segalman and Max Gold were also formed. The committee undertook the work of commissioning and preparing proposals and options relating to housing the new congregation, to establishing its charity status, and to drafting a constitution to govern the management of the congregation once established. The work of the committee came to fruition on 2 April 1995 when the newly built Pryme Street Synagogue, Anlaby, was consecrated by the Chief Rabbi. An opening and consecration ceremony was held and Rabbi Shalom Osdoba was inducted as the community's first Rabbi. He remained in post until June 2011 when the position of full time Rabbi was abolished due to the declining financial situation of the Congregation and falling membership numbers.

Description: This series contains limited records relating to Hull Reform Synagogue, also known as Ne've Shalom, donated by various members of the Jewish Community in Hull. Please note that the official records of the Hull Reform Synagogue remain with the officers of the congregation. Significant interest in Reform Judaism existed in Hull from the early 1960s when a number of individuals travelled to the Leeds Reform Synagogue for services. In 1966 five families, the Bermitzes, Levys, Rosenbergs, Barnetts and Gordons, met to form a committee to establish a Reform Synagogue in Hull. In 1968 Anlaby House was used to hold the first Reform Congregation Service in Hull, and in 1971 the Hull Reform Congregation became a constituted Synagogue. In 1981 the Synagogue was granted full membership of the Reform Synagogues of Great Britain when membership numbers passed 40. As membership slowly increased in the 1980s Anlaby Methodist Church Hall, followed by Cottingham Civic Hall were used to hold services. In 1991, Henry Goldstone purchased a site and a Synagogue was built at Great Gutter Lane, Willerby. The first formal service was held on 18 February 1992 led by Ian Sugarman, and the consecration ceremony took place on Sunday 26 April 1992 led by Rabbi Rodney Mariner, Chairman of the RSGB Assembly of Rabbis, Rabbi Walter Rothschild and Rabbi Danny Rich.
