| | Manuscript Collection | Save | | 1 | Title: | Cleveland Jewish History Sources
| | | | Creator: | Cleveland Jewish History Sources | | | | Dates: | 1819-1956 | | | | Abstract: | The Cleveland Jewish History Sources Collection is a card file assembled between 1954-1956 by the American Jewish History Center of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, to support a planned volume on the history of Cleveland, Ohio, Jewry. This intention was realized with the publication of History of the Jews of Cleveland by Lloyd P. Gartner in 1978. Source material for this card file, which covers the span from the early nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth, includes both the national Anglo-Jewish press and local Cleveland sources, including the general press, the Anglo-Jewish press, and Jewish communal records. Rabbi Jack J. Herman and Judah Rubinstein were the local Cleveland researchers for the project. The collection consists of 16,000 index cards containing information about Cleveland's Jewish community that was obtained primarily from newspapers. These cards have been arranged into fourteen broad categories: Arts; Charities; Clubs and Societies, Various; Community Services; Economic Life; Education; Political Affairs; Population; Sermons and Lectures; Social Life; Synagogues; Synagogue Related; Umbrella Organizations, and Zionism. Within these categories, primary and sometimes secondary sub-headings are arranged alphabetically and then chronologically. As prescribed by the AJHC, each research finding was typed on 4x6, un-ruled index cards and described in the following top-down order: top left, the city and chronological period; top right, topical classification; single line description of the finding; excerpt(s) from the finding. In many instances, the researchers stapled to the card photocopies of pertinent portions of the source material. The collection, however, contains exceptions to this general procedure: a number of 3x5 cards with handwritten entries (evidently, unprocessed research findings) and a number of 4x6 cards with attached paper negative photocopy, i.e., white-on-black and mirror-image text. | | | | Call #: | MS 4621 | | | | Extent: | 7.50 linear feet (15 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Kalisch, Isidor, 1816-1886. | Hahn, Aaron. | Mayer, Jacob. | Gries, Moses J., 1868-1918. | Machol, Michael, 1846-1914. | Jewish Theological Seminary of America.

| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Ratner Family Papers
| | | | Creator: | Ratner Family | | | | Dates: | 1891-2007 | | | | Abstract: | The Ratner (formerly Ratowczer) family has been prominent in the Cleveland, Ohio, area since the mid-twentieth century. The family immigrated to the United States in 1920 and settled in Cleveland in 1921. Leonard Ratner began his business career by opening two creameries in the Glenville neighborhood. He then formed the Buckeye Material Company in 1924, later merging it with his brother Charlie's business, Forest City Material Company, in 1929, to form the B & F Building Company, a major builder of prefabricated homes in the east side suburbs. The family consolidated their business interests into Forest City Enterprises, Inc. in 1960. Leonard Ratner married Lillian Bernstein in 1924 and had two children: Ruth Ratner Miller and Albert B. Ratner. Leonard Ratner held many important positions on community boards during his lifetime, including the positions of honorary life trustee at the Jewish Welfare Federation, the Jewish Community Federation, and Mount Sinai Hospital. His children were also heavily involved in philanthropy. The Ratner family was particularly instrumental in establishing the Cleveland Jewish Archives at the Western Reserve Historical Society in 1976. The collection consists of advertisements, annual reports, census reports, certificates, correspondence, reports, lists, newspaper clippings, newsletters, programs, scrapbooks, ship manifests, songs, and speeches. | | | | Call #: | MS 5044 | | | | Extent: | 9.00 linear feet (2 containers, 14 oversize volumes, and 1 oversize folder,) | | | | Subjects: | Ratner, Leonard, 1896-1974. | Miller, Ruth Ratner, 1926-1996. | Ratner, Albert B., 1927- | Ratner family. | Forest City Enterprises, Inc. | Lillian and Betty Ratner School (Pepper Pike, Ohio) | Jewish businesspeople -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jewish women -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Philanthropists -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Building materials industry -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Architects and builders -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Real estate development -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Real estate developers -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Genealogy. | Białystok (Poland) -- Genealogy.

| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 3 | Title: | Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland Records
| | | | Creator: | Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland | | | | Dates: | 1839-1982 | | | | Abstract: | The Jewish Community Federation is a central policy making and fundraising agency for the Jewish community of Cleveland, Ohio, which traces its origin to the Federation of the Jewish Charities of Cleveland (founded 1903). The Federation of the Jewish Charities of Cleveland changed its name to the Jewish Welfare Federation of Cleveland in 1926, and in 1930, added a fundraising arm, the Jewish Welfare Fund of Cleveland. In 1951 the Jewish Welfare Federation merged with the Jewish Community Council to become the Jewish Community Federation. The collection consists of correspondence, trustee and committee minutes and reports, annual reports, surveys, membership lists, newspaper clippings, publications, research papers, and scrapbooks. The collection also includes material pertaining to the Federation and its antecedents, as well as to local, national, and international organizations with which the Federation was involved; and subjects of concern to the local Jewish community including the Jewish Welfare Fund. Also, there are numerous surveys, as well as a wide range of material relating to local, national, and international Jewish history. | | | | Call #: | MS 4563 | | | | Extent: | 44.30 linear feet (61 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Benesch, Alfred A.
