| Manuscript Collection | Save | 1 | Title: | Warrensville Center Synagogue Records
| | | Creator: | Warrensville Center Synagogue | | | Dates: | 1925-1990 | | | Abstract: | The Warrensville Center Synagogue, an Orthodox Jewish congregation in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, was established in 1959 as a result of a merger between three smaller synagogues, the Tetiever Ahavath Achim Anshe Sfard Congregation, the Kinsman Jewish Center, and Congregation Nvai Zedek. In 1970, Sherith Jacob Israel, the Eddy Road Jewish Center-Memorial Synagogue joined Warrensville Center. This congregation was itself a merger of Sherith Jacob and Sherith Israel of Mount Pleasant congregations. In 1972, Shaker-Lee Congregation was absorbed by the Warrensville Center Synagogue. Shaker-Lee Congregation was the result of a previous merger of Ohel Jacob, Ohel Yavne, and Tifereth Israel (not to be confused with The Temple-Tifereth Israel, a Reform congregation) congregations. The collection consists of organizational documents, membership lists, newsletters, newspaper clippings, and program brochures. Included is the card file (1950-1989) of funerals of congregants maintained by Rabbi Jacob Muskin, leader of the Kinsman Jewish Center (1950-1959) and the Warrensville Center Synagogue (1959-1990). Also included is the Warrensville Center Synagogue membership card file (1959), arranged alphabetically by family name and coded to indicate the members' original congregational affiliation. | | | Call #: | MS 4758 | | | Extent: | 3.30 linear feet (6 containers) | | | Subjects: | Warrensville Center Synagogue (Cleveland Heights, Ohio). | Kinsman Jewish Center (Cleveland, Ohio). | Tetiever Ahavath Achim Anshe Sfard Congregation (Cleveland, Ohio). | Sherith Israel Congregation (Cleveland, Ohio). | Sherith Jacob Congregation (Cleveland, Ohio). | Nvai Zedek Congregation (Cleveland, Ohio). | Shaker-Lee Congregation (Shaker Heights, Ohio). | Orthodox Judaism -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Synagogues -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Organization and administration.
