David Moltke-Hansen (at that time Director of the South Carolina Historical Society) coordinated 22 local cultural organizations into a group that could provide mutual assistance after storms or other disasters. The organization helped foster communication, local efforts of recovery, sharing of resources and expertise. CALM helped agencies, organizations, and institutions write disaster plans; sponsored workshops; and in general, raised consciousness about preservation and disaster preparedness and recovery needs. The statewide Palmetto Archives, Libraries and Museums Council on Preservation (PALMCOP) was then formed in Columbia in 1986 based on the successful model of CALM. CALM now provides an opportunity for participants in the archives, library, museum and records communities to interact in a supportive environment for the exchange of ideas and information. In 2001, CALM members created the Guide to Charleston Area Archives, Libraries and Museums to assist librarians, archivists, curators, and records managers in knowing “who has what,” and also to assist local researchers and scholars in their educational and academic pursuits. It was updated in 2004, 2008, and 2011, however, significant staffing and other changes have occurred in the last four years and this 5th edition reflects those changes.

  • The Story of Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim of Charleston, SC
    The Story of Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim of Charleston, SC Congregation Founded 1749 Religious School Founded 1838 Present Sanctuary Built 1840 A National Historic Landmark of the United States The Oldest Synagogue in continuous use in the United States Founding Reform Jewish Congregation in the United States www.kkbe.org 2 Beginnings The story of Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (KKBE) is one of faith, devotion, and perseverance in the American tradition of freedom of worship. Charleston was established in 1670; the earliest known reference to a Jew in the English settlement was in 1695. Soon other, primarily Sephardic, Jews followed, attracted by the civil and religious liberty of South Carolina. By 1749, these pioneers were sufficiently numerous to organize our congregation, Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (Holy Congregation House of God). Fifteen years later, they also 1794 Synagogue before fire in 1838 established the now historic Coming Street Cemetery, the South’s oldest remaining colonial Jewish burial site. At first congregants worshipped in private homes; in 1780 they used an improvised synagogue adjacent to the present Temple grounds. In 1794 they dedicated a new synagogue building described then as the largest in the United States, “spacious and elegant” which signified the high degree of social acceptance Charleston Jews enjoyed. This handsome, cupolated Georgian synagogue was destroyed in the great Charleston fire of 1838 and replaced in 1840 on the same Hasell Street site by the present imposing structure. The Interior before 1838 fire by colonnaded Temple, dedicated in early 1841, is Solomon Nunez Carvalho renowned as one of the country’s finest examples of Greek Revival architecture.

  • Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim: Rich Archival History Deserves Preservation
    Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim: Rich Archival History Deserves Preservation www.kkbe.org for more information Contributors: Kate Fortney and Brenda Braye Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (KKBE) in Charleston, South Carolina, is the oldest synagogue in continuous use in the United States. Its story is one of faith, perseverance, and tolerance in the American tradition of religious freedom. Charleston was established in 1670 and the earliest known reference to a Jew in the English settlement was in 1695. Attracted by the area’s civil and religious freedom, Jewish settlement continued to grow. By 1749, the pioneers living in this dynamic city were sufficiently numerous to organize KKBE. Fifteen years after KKBE was established, the congregation also established the Coming Street Cemetery, listed in the National Register of Historic Places as the oldest and largest colonial Jewish cemetery in the South. Coming Street Cemetery Long before there were distinctions between Orthodox, Conservative and Reform congregations, Coming Street was the cemetery for all of Charleston’s most distinguished Jewish families. It contains over 500 graves, some unmarked. The oldest identifiable grave is that of Moses D. Cohen, the first ritual leader of Congregation Beth Elohim, who died in 1762. The chief fascination of the Coming Street Cemetery is its rich archival legacy. Much of the history of one of the oldest Jewish communities in the United States and the contribution of Jews to South Carolina and America, can be deduced from these important records. Among those buried in the cemetery are 12 KKBE members who fought in the American Revolution, six soldiers of the War of 1812, two from the Seminole Wars in Florida, 23 Civil War participants, of whom eight died in the Confederate cause, six rabbis of the congregation, and 18 past presidents of the congregation.

  • David Lopez Jr.: Builder, Industrialist, and Defender of the Confederacy Barry Stiefel David Lopez Jr
    David Lopez Jr.: Builder, Industrialist, and Defender of the Confederacy Barry Stiefel David Lopez Jr. (1809–1884), a pillar of Charleston’s Jewish community dur- ing the mid nineteenth century, was a prominent builder in an age when Jews had not yet ventured into the building trades. In addition to residences, commercial and public buildings, and even churches, Lopez’s building credits include Institute Hall, where the Ordinance of Secession was signed in 1860. Lopez also served as South Carolina’s general superintendent of state works during the “War Between Figure 1: Portrait of David Lopez, Jr. the States,” as he would have called it. His (Courtesy Special Collections, College of most noteworthy accomplishment from Charleston Library) the perspective of Jewish history was the construction of Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (KKBE) in 1839–1841, the first synagogue built by a practicing Jew in the Americas. Throughout his adult life, Lopez lived and worked in the midst of a deeply divided Jewish community, where early reformers struggled against traditionalists to define what American Jewish identity should be. He too became engrossed within the conflict. His KKBE served as a stage on which the drama of the reformer-traditionalist clash took place. The life story of this extraordinary Jew, builder, and Confederate that thoroughly investigates the primary sources—separating fact from the accumulated myths in the handful of secondary sources that mention him—has yet to be written. His merchant (half) great-uncle, Aaron Lopez (1731–1782) of Newport, Rhode Island, has so far been the primary focus of this prolific family.
