Notes

2021-07-06 - In the document "Jefferson County (Jewish) History" we read: "By the 1870s, there is evidence that that congregation was adapting to Reform Judaism (including working on the Sabbath, **purchasing an organ for the synagogue**, and the adoption of the Minhag America [American tradition].)"
