Notes (↵ returns to text above)
Jewish Year Books were
published annually from 1896/7 through 2015, except from the war
years 1941 to 1945.
Since 1909, the year books were generally published towards the end of the year
prior to year appearing in such year book's title (e.g. Jewish
Year Book 1920 would have been published in 1919). It has been assumed that the
term of office of an officer, as listed here, commenced in the year of
publication of the relevant year book and continued until the commencement
of office of his successor. However, it should be noted that this is
only an assumption and accordingly the actual years of office may
differ slightly from those shown here. However, it should be noted
that this is only an assumption and accordingly his actual years of office may differ slightly from those shown here.
In some instances, where the Jewish Year Books only provided initials, an officer's full name has been obtained from sources.
