Conservation
When received by the Archives in 2012, Barney's letters and correspondence were arranged in chronological order in a badly degraded black paged scrapbook. The scrapbook pages were causing the documents harm through acid migration. The letters were removed and re-housed and the scrapbook discarded.
History / Biographical
Barney Weiss (b. April 21, 1891 - d. Ottawa, May 24, 1951) was born in Bucharest, Rumania and came to Canada as a youth with his parents. They first settled in Quebec City where Barney received his education. He later he went on to become a merchant. In 1912 Barney married Henrietta Reimer (b. unknown - d. November 2, 1967) in New York City where she was attending school. After their marriage, Barney and Henrietta moved back to Quebec City before settling in Ottawa in 1915. They had five daughters; Tessie (m. Max Zelikovitz), Beatrice, who also went by Bea or Bella (m. Abe Dubinsky, m. Mitchell Randall), Inez (m. Joe Zelikovitz) (b. 1917), Pauline (m. Hy Hochberg) and Lillian (m. Miller, Montreal). In 1954, daughters Beatrice and Pauline had a double wedding at the Chateau Laurier. In Ottawa the Weiss family first ran a confectionery on Elgin Street, then Weiss's Delicatessen at 221 Rideau Street. The family lived in a flat above the store. Henrietta ran the delicatessen in later years as Barney suffered from diabetes. At the age of 45 Barney lost his left leg due to complications with the disease and wore a prosthetic. Nonetheless, Barney was a prominent man in both the Jewish community and in the broader Ottawa community. He was a member of Adath Jeshurun congregation, was an executive member of Ottawa B'nai B'rith and the Zionist Organization of Ontario, and was president of the Ottawa Hebrew Benefit Society for 10 years. Barney ran Ottawa's Capital House Hotel on Rideau Street near Cumberland for 5 years, and sponsored the Ottawa Jewish Boys’ Softball team in 1939 (the Barney Weiss Team). For 25 years Barney served as vice-president of the Ottawa Liberal Association, and he was a personal friend and colleague of William Lyon Mackenzie King, and in December of 1942, he was named the first Jewish Justice of the Peace for Carleton County. Barney died in Ottawa at his home, on 24 Russell Avenue, after a short illness. He is buried in the Jewish cemetery on Bank Street. Henrietta was a staunch supporter of the Jewish national movement in Palestine and tirelessly fundraised for this cause both before and after the creation of Israel. She belonged to the Lillian Freiman chapter of Hadassah. Every Tuesday a tea was held at the Adath Jeshurun synagogue on King Edward Avenue and Henrietta would pick up women by taxi to ensure they came. Henrietta regularly bought the large dolls to raffle at the teas, outfitting them in hand crocheted dresses, booties, and a bonnets. In 1968, a year after her death, the Freiman family organized a new Hadassah chapter named the Henrietta Weiss chapter in her honour.
