- History / Biographical
- The Jewish cemetery in Gloucester Township, off of the Metcalfe highway, opened in 1893 upon the founding of one of Ottawa's first Jewish congregation, Adath Jeshrun. The establishment, maintenance, and preservation of a Jewish burial ground was one of the central concerns of the congregation’s founders. Abraham Sugarman, John Dover, Abraham Spector and Benjamin Silver acted as trustees for the Congregation of Adath Jeshurun during the initial purchase of land for the purpose of establishing a burial ground. As the congregation, and Ottawa Jewish population, grew it became apparent that the grounds of the original cemetery would need to be expanded. It was during this period that a second congregation, Agudath Achim, was founded. In conjunction with Agudath Achim, the cemetery grounds were enlarged in 1907 under the guidance of Abraham Kert, an Ottawa merchant, acting in trust for the Hebrew United Brethren of Ottawa (Agudath Achim). By 1942 these two congregations were joined by B'nai Jacob and Machzikei Hadas in expanding the cemetery grounds. Responsibility for the allotment and sale of plots rested with each congregation until June 2008. Maintenance, capital expenditures and supervision is undertaken jointly by the Cemetery Committee. By the early 1970's, the need for a new cemetery arose with the congregations of Young Israel and Temple Israel having no sections of their own, along with the Agudath Israel Congregation having only a few plots remaining. The Congregations of Agudath Israel, Beth Shalom, Machzikei Hadas, Temple Israel and Young Israel formed the New Jewish Community Cemetery of Ottawa, Inc. in 1976 for the purpose of developing and administering the new cemetery location in Osgoode Township. Israel Shinder, chairman, and his cemetery committee of Hy Gould, Harry Hecht, Max Sternthall and Norman Tenenbaum provided the leadership. The land was consecrated on Sunday, October 31, 1976. Separate committees operated each cemetery until 2008. Representatives of six Ottawa congregations, and the community-at-large, met in July, 2008 to officially create a new corporation to be known as The Jewish Memorial Gardens. It administers Ottawa’s two Jewish cemeteries on Bank Street and in Osgoode to facilitate funeral arrangements. The board includes three community representatives appointed by the Jewish Federation of Ottawa and one representative each from Agudath Israel, Beit Tikvah, Machzikei Hadas, Temple Israel and Young Israel. Beth Shalom is represented by three members on the board for the first five years, by two members for the next five years and then by one member in following years. In December 2008, JMG hired its first executive director, Shelley Fiennes.
