- History / Biographical
- Founded in 1903 by Boruch “Benjamin” Applebaum (b. approx 1887, Russia - d. October 3, 1953, Ottawa), B. Applebaum & Son was a tinsmith and sheet metal business located on Murray Street. Benjamin Applebaum immigrated to Canada from Russia in 1902, along with his family. His parents Moses Applebaum (b. approx. 1863, Berezna, Russia - d. October 2, 1937, Ottawa) and Ethel (nee Baker) Applebaum (b. approx. 1866, Russia - d. approx. 1934, Ottawa) had 3 other children: Jacob Gershon Applebaum (b. July 18, 1890, Russia - d. November 14, 1983, Ottawa), Rachel Baker, Pinchus “Pinhey” Applebaum (b. July 15, 1895, Russia - d. September 23, 1971, Ottawa), and Motel “Michael” Applebaum (b. Unknown, d. February 12, 1970, Ottawa). In 1908, Benjamin Applebaum married Henrietta “Yetta” (nee Siegel) Applebaum (b. approx. 1885, Russia - d. October 19, 1960, Ottawa), the daughter of Sam Siegel and Hannah (nee Shanker) Siegel. They had six children: Rose “Rosie” Applebaum (b. September 13, 1909 - d. June 5, 2000), Anne “Annie” Segal (b. May 15 1911 - d. unknown), Bessie Applebaum (b. February 8. 1913 - d. August 2, 1998), Jennie “Jean” Shaner (b. October 2, 1914 - d. unknown), Fanny Applebaum (b. October 12, 1916 - d. unknown), and Harold “Harry” Applebaum (b. approx. 1917 - d. February 2, 1990). The Applebaum family lived at various locations on Murray Street. They also owned and rented properties at 302-304 and 306-308 Murray St., 262-268 Nelson St., and 51-53 Douglas St., which mainly consisted of second and third-storey apartments located above businesses. B. Applebaum & Son specialized in making baking pans, garbage cans with corrugated sides, stove pipes, and furnace metals. In the 1950s, they also branched out into the air conditioning business. The business was family run, and Benjamin and Yetta’s children worked there as well as Benjamin’s brother Pinchus “Pinhey” Applebaum. In addition to her work in the family business, Yetta Applebaum was involved in charity work, and was a member of the local Hadassah chapter. The business did a significant amount of contract work with other Ottawa businesses. They were responsible for supplying all of the bread pans used by the Standard Bread Company bakery in 1925, and they completed all of the tinsmithing and duct work for the Minto Rink in 1952. B. Applebaum & Son was located on Murray Street, and the Applebaum family lived above the business. After Benjamin Applebaum’s death in 1953, his estate of approximately $52,000 was left to his six children, and his will specified that Harold Applebaum, his only son, have the opportunity to purchase the business if he was interested in doing so. Harold Applebaum continued to run the family business until 1970, when improvements in automated technologies drove them to bankruptcy.
