| Abstract: | The Landy family traces its roots to Chaim Ephraim (Landesman) Landy and his wife, Esther Yudovitz, of Kovno, Lithuania. Six of their sons immigrated to the United States between 1880 and 1905. Jacob Landy (1850-1916) settled in Cleveland, Ohio and became the first sofer in the region. He also opened the first Jewish bookstore in Cleveland. The collection consists of approximately 60 black and white individual and group portraits and ten color individual and group portraits. |
