History / Biographical
The first official meeting of Adath Jeshrun was held on December 9, 1891 with the express purpose of establishing an orthodox congregation for the growing Jewish Community of Ottawa. Congregation Adath Jeshrun was founded in 1892 when its first president, John Dover, received the official charter. John Dover, Abraham Kranf, Morris Adler, and Michael Fine served as the first official executive committee. During the 1891 meeting it was agreed that the congregation was to be overseen by a committee of elected officials which would make up the executive committee. Executive offices included a President, Vice-President, Secretary, and three Trustees with office terms of one year. The structure of the governing body of Adath Jeshrun continued in this manner for the duration of the congregation's existence, with minor alterations, as it gained additional members. The 1914 congregation by-laws show an expansion of the governing committee. The committee grew to include a President, Vice-President, Parnass, Treasurer, and 9 trustees. The by-laws also established a number of active committees including the Education, House, Choir, Membership, Seat, and Cemetery committees. In 1929 Chevra Kadisha societies were established and additional rules of decorum were added. The by-laws subsequently recorded the religious officials who were to serve as part of the congregation. Religious officials included Rabbi, Chazan, Assistant Chazan, Shamas, and a Choir Master. Between 1890 and 1895, religious services were conducted at the homes of Moses Bilsky and John Dover, or at the homes of the leading members of the day. In 1893 a plot of land was bought on the East side of King Street for the congregation. The first Adath Jeshurun Synagogue was housed in a small building at 264 Murray Street from 1895-1904. The corner stone for the new synagogue was laid July 25, 1904 by A. Rosenthal. The congregation later moved into the King Edward Street shul, located at 375 King Edward Avenue. The Synagogue Building Committee was chaired by Archibald Freiman, then only 21 years of age. He presided over the Congregation from 1904 until 1930. Wolfe Abelson was the vice president throughout the early part of the congregation's history, serving continuously from 1905 to 1930. In 1910 the Hebrew Institute was added with the establishment of the Talmud Torah Board of Education. In 1917 it was decided that the King Edward Institute, owned by the congregation, was to be leased in order to facilitate the amalgamation of all Talmud Torah's in the area. During the first half of the twentieth century the congregation of Adath Jeshrun served as the principal orthodox congregation of the Ottawa Jewish Community. When the Diamond Jubilee was celebrated in 1952, two of the original congregation members, Jacob Freedman and Bernard Smith, were part of the festivities. Ottawa-born David Petegorsky, Executive Director of the American Jewish Congress, was the guest speaker at the anniversary banquet. In 1956, Adath Jeshurun Congregation, along with Agudath Achim Congregation, joined together to form the Beth Shalom Congregation on Chapel Street. At this time the synagogue building became the Jewish Memorial Chapel, also known as the Chevra Kadisha. The congregations first Cantor and Shochet was Reverend Jacob Mirsky who served from 1892 until 1942, followed by Reverend Joseph Rabin (1929-1956), and Reverend Harry Weissbord (1944-1956). Rabbi Simon Fyne served from 1912 to 1920, followed by Rabbi Max Mintz (1924-1926), Rabbi Dr. Julius Leikin (1927-1928), Rabbi Nathan Kollin (1929-1932) and United Synagogue Rabbis Abraham H. Freedman (1931-1636), William Margolis (1937-1938), Oscar Z. Fasman (1940-1946), Emanuel L. Lifschutz (1946-1951) and Simon L. Eckstein (1952-?). Vice-Presidents included Wolf Abelson (1910-1923, 1925-1930), Samuel Katz (1923-1925), Laz Greenberg (1930-1937), Dr. Samuel Mirksy (1937-1938), Leon Petegorsky (1938-1942), Hyman Gould (1942-1948), Samuel Caplan (1948-1952), and Isidore Stone (1952-1956). Benjamin Pearl served as Congregation Secretary from 1912 to 1948 and was succeeded by Herman Roodman. Lillian Freiman established the Adath Jeshrun Sisterhood and served as its first president from 1910 until 1929. She was succeeded by Mrs. Slone (1929-1931). Subsequent Presidents were Mrs. S. Brodie (1931-1938), Mrs. M. Pearlman (1938-1940), and Mrs. S. Lepofsky (1940-1944), Mrs. G. Caplan (1944-1947), Mrs. L. Frieman (1947-1949), Mrs. H. Gould (1949-1952), Mrs. S. Torontow (1952-1953), Mrs. R. Berke (1953-1955), and Mrs. M. Freedman (1955-1956).
