| | Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 1 | Title: | Shaarey Tikvah Congregation Records, Series III
| | | | Creator: | Congregation Shaarey Tikvah | | | | Dates: | 1928-2021 | | | | Abstract: | Shaarey Tikvah Congregation was founded in 1940 in Cleveland, Ohio, by a group of German Jewish refugees. In its first ten years, the congregation met in four different buildings in Cleveland. In 1950, the congregation purchased the Heights Presbyterian Church in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, and changed its name to Mayfield Temple. In 1970, the congregation merged with Hillcrest Synagogue B'nai Israel and moved to its building in Mayfield Heights, Ohio. The merged congregation was called Mayfield Hillcrest Synagogue, and had the Hebrew name Shaarey Tikvah - B'nai Israel. In 1986, the congregation moved to Beachwood, Ohio. It became the first conservative congregation in Beachwood and changed its name back to Shaarey Tikvah, which means "gates of hope." Shaarey Tikvah was associated with the Conservative movement in 1957. Rabbis who served the congregation were Hans Zucker, 1940-1942; Manfred Strauss, 1942-1946; Enoch H. Kronheim, 1946-1957; Jacob Shtull, 1958-1992; Gary Robuck, 1992-2003; Edward C. Bernstein, 2003-2011, David Kosak, 2011-2015, and Eddie Sukol (in an interim capacity). Rabbi Scott Roland is the current rabbi in 2022; he has served since 2016. The collection consists of albums, articles, blueprints, bulletins, cemetery certificates, correspondence, directories, flyers, membership lists, minutes, pamphlets, programs, reports, and speech texts. | | | | Call #: | MS 5505 | | | | Extent: | 11.3 linear feet (14 containers, including one Oversized Container, and 1 Oversized Folder) | | | | Subjects: | Congregation Shaarey Tikvay (Beachwood, Ohio) | Shaarey Tikvah Congregation (Cleveland, Ohio) | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Synagogues -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Conservative Judaism -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Jews, German -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Refugees, Jewish -- Ohio -- Cleveland

| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 2 | Title: | Hal Hanauer Myers Papers
| | | | Creator: | Myers, Hal Hanauer | | | | Dates: | 1938-2005 | | | | Abstract: | Born Hans Hanauer to a Jewish family in Karlsruhe, Germany, Hal Hanauer Meyers was one of the children at the French concentration camp Camp de Gurs who were rescued by Quakers in January 1941. He and his brother, Dieter, eventually were placed with Cleveland, Ohio, philanthropists David and Inez Myers. Hans stayed in Cleveland, attended Case Institute of Technology, and eventually changed his name to Hal Hanauer Myers. The collection consists of speeches, correspondence and envelopes, calendars, school notebooks, various identification cards, scrapbook pages, news clippings, photographs, and books. Of particular interest are his Nazi identification card, brief autobiographical speech given at Congregation Shaarey Tikvah, wartime correspondence with his sister and family, some of which is in German, and notebooks used in the Quaker (American Friends Service Committee) refugee camp to learn English and French. | | | | Call #: | MS 4986 | | | | Extent: | 0.80 linear feet (2 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Myers, Hal Hanauer, 1930- | Myers family | Hanauer, Ruth | American Friends Service Committee | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Jews -- Germany | Refugees, Jewish -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Refugee children -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Personal narratives | Holocaust survivors -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Kindertransports (Rescue operations) | World War, 1939-1945 -- Jews -- Rescue | World War, 1939-1945 -- Children -- Germany | World War, 1939-1945 -- Evacuation of civilians | Jewish children -- Germany
