Lynde was a nationally recognized authority in the field of social reform during the first half of the twentieth century. Much of Lynde's career was spent with the Associated Charities of Cleveland, Ohio, 1923-1933; then he became assistant director of the Family Welfare Association in New York. He returned to Cleveland in 1935 to head the Cleveland Welfare Federation (later the Federation for Community Planning) until his retirement in 1959. The collection consists of correspondence, newspaper clippings, and articles pertaining to Lynde's personal life and professional career, and genealogical materials relating to Lynde family members. The collection pertains to the private and professional life of Edward D. Lynde, particularly his involvement in the social service reform movement, and relationships between Lynde family members. Included are the Civil War letters and documents of Lynde's grandfather, Abraham G. Schermerhorn, letters from Myron H. Bent, a journalist with the Brooklyn, N.Y.

| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Eleanor Rosenfeld Gerson Family Papers
| | | | Creator: | Gerson, Eleanor Rosenfeld Family | | | | Dates: | 1817-1993 | | | | Abstract: | Eleanor Rosenfeld Gerson continued her family's tradition of activism in Jewish and other educational, philanthropic, and social service organizations in Cleveland, Ohio. She served as a trustee and chairperson of the School on Magnolia, an alternative school, from 1973-1982. In 1985 the school was renamed the Eleanor Gerson School. Other organizations she was active in included the American Civil Liberties Union of Greater Cleveland, the Women's Community Foundation, the Jewish Family Service Association, the Jewish Community Federation, Mount Sinai Hospital, the Free Clinic of Greater Cleveland, the Heights Area Project, and the Cleveland Scholarship Program. Eleanor Rosenfeld married Benjamin Gerson in 1937, and had four children. She was the great-granddaughter of Edward Lazarus and Henrietta Wilmersdorfer Rosenfeld, who had immigrated to New York City from Uhlfeld, Germany in the mid-nineteenth century. Their son, Louis Rosenfeld, married Frederica Fatman, daughter of Joseph Fatman, in 1874. Joseph Fatman and his brother, Aaron, were owners of the firm of Fatman and Company, tobacco dealers. In December 1862, they were among the thirty Jewish merchants ordered out of Paducah, Kentucky, in the Department of the Tennessee by General U.S. Grant's Order Number 11. Eleanor Gerson's parents, Edward Lazarus and Bertha Rosenfeld, moved to Cleveland from New York City in 1925. Edward was an executive in his father-in-law Emanuel Rosenfeld's firm, Grabler Manufacturing Company. He was also active on the boards of many Jewish social service organizations. Bertha Rosenfeld was a founder of the Council of Jewish Women's Jewish Big Sister organization, and was active in other Jewish and women's groups. Bertha's parents, Emanuel and Lena Rosenfeld, came to Cleveland in the 1870s from Germany and were members of Temple Tifereth Israel. Lena Rosenfeld was an active member of the Cleveland Section, National Council of Jewish Women and The Temple's Women's Association. The collection consists of correspondence, legal and genealogical documents, diaries, account books, and newspaper and other clippings of the Rosenfeld, Fatman, and Gerson family members. Of particular interest to Civil War historians are contemporaneous documents relating to General Grant's Order Number 11 which expelled Jews from areas in the jurisdiction of the Department of the Tennessee. | | | | Call #: | MS 4660 | | | | Extent: | 0.80 linear feet (2 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Gerson, Eleanor Rosenfeld, 1916-2000 | Rosenfeld family. | Gerson family. | Fatman family. | Fatman, Joseph. | Gerson, Benjamin S., 1911-1973. | Rosenfeld, Edward Lazarus, 1817-1891. | Rosenfeld, Louis, 1848-1901. | Rosenfeld, Edward Lazarus, 1875-1947. | Rosenfeld, Bertha, 1881-1959. | Rosenfeld, Frederica Fatman. | United States.

It initially focused on missionary and religious work. By 1880 the emphasis shifted toward character development and broadened to include boys as well as men, offering educational and physical training programs. During the 20th century the Y worked with the city's social settlements and welfare agencies, conducted fundraising campaigns during World War I, and increased its efforts to work with young boys. By the 1980s there were over 20 branches in the Cleveland area. The collection consists of minutes of the Cedar Avenue Boys' Branch, 1922-1977; also, general files of the Central YMCA, 1880-1975; publications and reports, including some issues of the Cleveland Red Triangle, the Association Boy, the Junior, News and Notes, and the West Side Boy; East End Branch scrapbook, 1929-1930; Cleveland surveys and studies, 1931-1962; Fenn College publications and reports, 1896-1938; War Work Week scrapbook, 1917; and miscellany. The collection pertains to the activities of the YMCA, including efforts at religious and missionary work, development of character in urban youth, war work, and alleviation of depression-era unemployment. The Cedar Avenue Branch records in particular document the Y's effort to serve Cleveland's black community, beginning in 1922. | | | | Call #: | MS 4458 | | | | Extent: | 3.51 linear feet (6 containers and 1 oversize folder) | | | | Subjects: | Young Men's Christian Association of Cleveland -- Archives. | Fenn College. | Boys -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Societies and clubs. | Men -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Societies and clubs. | Recreation -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Social work with youth -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | African Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | World War, 1914-1918 -- War work -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Social conditions.
