  • Once Called America's Versailles, Newport, Rhode Island's Charm Still
    Once called America’s Versailles, Newport, Rhode Island’s charm still lies in its National Registered Historic Landmark District. It is a seaside city on Aquidneck Island, 37 miles southeast of Providence, Rhode Island. The population of Newport is approximately 25,000. Newport gives a picture of America’s Gilded Age with palatial mansions where the rich built summer homes that were more like hotels. The Breakers, Elms, Rosecliff and Marble House are on most tourists’ agendas when in the area. Other sites to see are Rose Island Lighthouse, Rough Point, Cliff Walk and Newport’s Rocky Coastline. When it comes to historic preservation, Doris Duke is remembered by locals with much admiration. Born in 1912, Ms. Duke was the daughter of an American tobacco tycoon. Her philanthropic interests were as varied as her world travels, social life and interest in the arts. Until her death in 1992, Doris Duke was a major player in preserving more than 80 historic buildings in Newport. Today the Duke Charitable Foundation still exists and sponsors many social and health concerns. Newport was one of the earliest settlements in Rhode Island, along with Providence and Portsmouth. Newport was founded in 1639. It began as a beacon for religious tolerance and political freedom. People who had been persecuted in Europe heard of Newport’s acceptance and came to live and work there. An important seaport town during the 18th century, Newport played an important part in what was known as the Triangle Trade (1739‐1760). From sugar and molasses converted to rum and shipped to Africa for slaves, fortunes were made by those in that business.

The purpose of the Che- vrah was "for worshiping God in the Hebraic Faith." The Charter was signed by the following men: Barnet Lewison, Lippman Harris, Jones (Jonas) Berman, Simon Silberstein, Shaye (Isaiah) Davidson, Aaron Andlor, and Isaac Smolenski.

  • By Rebecca Twersky
    THE FOUNDING OF A JEWISH COMMUNITY THE EARLY YEARS OF CONGREGATION AHAVATH SHALOM OF WEST WARWICK, RHODE ISLAND by REBECCA TWERSKY In the course of my research, I thought that my translation into English of the original Yiddish minutes of the Ahavath Shalom Con- gregation of West Warwick, Rhode Island should serve an historical and educational purpose. The story they record bears witness to the Jews' loyalty to our traditional roots and determination to pass on this heritage to their children, uniting them wherever they may live, even if their numbers are small. These minutes recorded from September ], 1919 to July 25, 1923 were carefully preserved in a ledger by the late Mrs. Abraham (Minnie) Sternbach of Plienix, West Warwick, Rhode Island, the wife of the first vice president of the congregation and an officer of the Hebrew Ladies Auxiliary. Their son, Professor Harold Sternbach, brought the Yiddish minutes to my attention. The original Yiddish minutes and the English translation will go into the Archives of the Rhode Island Jewish Historical Association. On December 17, 1919 the Anshei Shalom (Men of Peace) Congre- gation, was incorporated under the name of Ahavath Shalom (Lovers of Peace) Congregation of West Warwick, Rhode Island by a charter granted by the Secretary of State.* The seven founding members were: Barney Hirshfield, Abraham Sternbach, Morris Shafrin, Joseph Dress- ier, Harry Fishtein, David Frank, and one Glantz.** Abraham Sternbach, the only living founder of the Ahavath Shalom Congregation, relates that there was talk of even earlier settlers in West Warwick before 1919 (possibly late 1800s or early 1900s).

  • George Washington's 1790 Letter to Touro Synagogue
    Americans United for Separation of Church and State George Washington’s 1790 Letter To Touro Synagogue During a visit to Newport, R.I., in 1790, a year before the Bill of Rights was ratifie d, President George Washington received a letter from Moses Seixas, warden of the Touro Synagogue, seeking assurance of religious freedom for Jews. President Washington gave an unequivocal guarantee, returning a letter stating that the new government would “give to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance.” Below is the transcript of each letter. Original spelling, punctuation and capitalization have been retained. The letter from Moses Seixas to President George Washington To the President of the United States of America. Sir: Permit the children of the stock of Abraham to approach you with the most cordial affection and esteem for your person and merits ~~ and to join with our fellow citizens in welcoming you to NewPort. With pleasure we reflect on those days ~~ those days of difficulty, and danger, when the God of Israel, who delivered David from the peril of the sword, ~~ shielded Your head in the day of battle: ~~ and we rejoice to think, that the same Spirit, who rested in the Bosom of the greatly beloved Daniel enabling him to preside over the Provinces of the Babylonish Empire, rests and ever will rest, u pon you, enabling you to discharge the arduous duties of Chief Magistrate in these States. Deprived as we heretofore have been of the invaluable rights of free Citizens, we now with a deep sense of gratitude to the Almighty disposer

    Mapping the Newport Experience: A History of the City’s Urban Development by John R. Tschirch, Architectural Historian Detail. Charles Blaskowitz. A Plan of the Town of Newport, September 1, 1777. Courtesy of the Library of Congress. “Mapping the Newport Experience” is a research project dedicated to documenting the urban history of Newport, Rhode Island from colonial settlement to the present day. Through the use of period maps, paintings, illustrations, photographs and literary descriptions, the project examines the physical layout of the city’s thoroughfares and the cultural response to the urban environment over the past over three and a half centuries. 1 This project is made possible through a generous grant from the Rhode Island Council for the Humanities, an independent state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. I would like to thank the Newport Historical Society for access to their important historical archives and for providing superb research guidance.
