Beverly’s Jewish History, Part II
Jews passed through Beverly on their way to somewhere else. That changed in 1898 with the arrival of Nicholas and Bessie Zelinsky, who settled into their home at 71 Park St. They were followed by Barnet and Annie Albert, whose son, Samuel, was born Jan. 24, 1899, at their home at 61 Park St. This was the beginning of a permanent Jewish community in Beverly.
At first, Shabbat and holiday services were held in various homes. As the number of families grew, community gatherings were held in Burnham Hall on Cabot Street from 1905 to 1908. Outgrowing Burnham Hall, the community found a larger space in the rear of the Wood Building on Rantoul Street. It was here that the “local Hebrew colony,” as the press called it, formed a congregation known as the Sons of Abraham, incorporated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on June 4, 1908.
Before 1912, there were three Jewish congregations in Beverly: Sons of Abraham, Sons of Israel, and Sons of Abraham and

Life as a Jew in Poland: Pogroms and instability
By Roni Roseberg
My grandmother, Cecilia, was known by various names—Shesha, Tillie, Ma, and Grammy—attesting to her various roles in life.
She was born in Poland, undoubtedly at home, and probably in the same village where she bore my father. But, I’m getting ahead of the story there.
Like most Jewish girls born in the late 1800s, her financial security depended on a viable, if not wealthy, match by the local matchmaker, not unlike the matchmaker character, Yenta, in Fiddler on the Roof.
Grammy’s family did not have a lot of money, and life in Poland was unstable due to the longstanding tradition of pogroms against the Jews.
