In 1993 the Working Party on Jewish Monuments in the UK & Ireland under its then Chairman, Dr Sharman Kadish, set up a project to survey the Alderney Road Cemetery, London E1, the oldest Ashkenasi burial ground in Great Britain, and which is still maintained by the United Synagogue.

Through ICOMOS (the International Council on Monuments and Sites) UK and ICOMOS ISRAEL two students, then recently graduated in architecture from the Bezalel Academy of Art & Design, Jerusalem, spent six weeks surveying the cemetery, its tombstones and, where legible, their inscriptions. They were Paula Palombo and Yael Turner and their original line drawings have been incorporated in this book. Their task was not easy, as anyone who has tried to decipher inscriptions on weather beaten stones will know. They were supervised by Dr Sharman, Mr Charles Tucker, Archivist to the Chief Rabbi's Office, Tina Murdoch of ICOMOS UK, and myself.

Generous financial support for the original survey project came from the Joseph and Hannah Turner Charitable Trust, the Jewish Memorial Council and the Sarah D'Avigdor Goldsmid Charitable Trust.

I am grateful to the Jewish Memorial Council, to Mr Edward Jamilly, the present Chairman of the Working Party, and all his co-workers for their help and support in seeing this record of Jewish Heritage in England through to publication.

My thanks go to the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England for enabling a photographic record of the tombstones to be made, and in particular to its expert Mr Derek Kendall for his advice. My thanks to Mr Geoffrey Behrman for taking the excellent photographs of every stone. A whole set has been deposited with the Royal Commission.

If I have unwittingly omitted to thank anyone who has an intellectual property right in any aspect of this work, or if I have not explicitly acknowledged any contribution, please bring it to my attention and D. V. I will rectify it in a later printing.

I thank Mr Elkan Levy, the current President of the United Synagogue for his help and encouragement to me when he was Chairman of the Burial Society, and my especial thanks to Mr Jonathan Fisher, the present Chairman of the United Synagogue Burial Committee, for his help and support, as well as for contributing a valuable Preface to the work. The United Synagogue has given me substantial financial support to enable me to bring this book to fruition, and I am very grateful to them.

INTRODUCTION

There is a little known cemetery near to London's Stepney Green Underground Station. It is the first Ashkenasi burial ground in England after the Resettlement in 1656.

The first Jews to live openly and freely in England qua Jews after the Expulsion in 1290 were mostly Sephardim, Jews emanating from Spain and Portugal. They had lived in London as crypto Jews, Marranos, from about 1630, but when war broke out between England and Spain in 1656 Antonio Rodrigues Robles successfully petitioned the Courts that as a Jew, although of Spanish birth, he was not to be regarded as an enemy alien. Once Robles was allowed to remain in England it was not long before his co-religionists 'came out of the closet'. They formed a Jewish community, worshipping and conducting itself according to the Sephardi rite.

When the first Ashkenasi Jews came to this country after 1656 they worshipped with the Sephardi community in small houses near Dukes Place, London, and when they died they utilized the Sephardi cemetery in Mile End which had been opened in 1657. As their numbers grew, the Ashkenasim established their own minyan and, according to Cecil Roth in his The Great Synagogue, London (the classic work on which any Anglo-Jewish history of this period must heavily rely), formed an organized community in 1690.

When Jewish communities later began to establish themselves in the first half of the eighteenth century in Provincial towns, often their first act of communal organization, even before building a synagogue, was to purchase land for a cemetery.1 In London, however, they first built for themselves a synagogue, but continued to rely upon the Sephardim to bury their dead.

The Sephardi authorities became anxious about the number of tudescos, as they called their Ashkenasi brethren, who were being buried in their cemetery, especially, perhaps, the number of poor dead who were a charge on their communal funds.

On 11 January 1692/32 David Penso, parnas of the Sephardim, called the attention of the Mahamad (its governing body) to 'the many tudescos who are at present in this city and increase every day' and they resolved to inform the Ashkenasim that they had to get their own cemetery within six months, for after that time only Ashkenasim who had paid their Burial Tax (finta de Bethahaim) would be buried. The six month ultimatum came and went, the Ashkenasim appear to have done nothing to secure a cemetery of their own, but no doubt pressure was maintained, and in 1695/6 a separate Burial Society (Hevra Kaddisha) was established. This was the forerunner of the present day United Synagogue Burial Society, which arose from an amalgamation of this and later the Burial Societies of the Hambro' and New Synagogues.3

The most prominent Ashkenasi in London at this time was Benjamin Levy who had arrived about 1669. He was the son of Moses Levy, a wealthy merchant of Hamburg. He was one of the twelve Jews out of 124 men licensed to practise on the Royal Exchange. Levy was endenizened in 1688, was one of the original Subscribers to the Bank of England and a figure of importance in the financial world. He was a member of the Sephardi congregation and, exceptionally, granted all the privileges of membership, including burial.

Benjamin Levy, acting from the highest motives of disinterest, for his own burial rights were secure, bought from Captain Nathanaiel Owen a plot of garden-land contiguous to the Sephardi cemetery in Mile End on 2 February 1696 (Old Style) or 2 February 1697 (New Style) on a lease for 999 years, at a peppercorn rent, for £190. The following day an Indenture was signed and sealed whereby Owen left £105 on mortgage.4 When Levy's (second) wife died in the spring of 1704 she was buried in this cemetery, and it is fitting that when he died a few months later he was laid to rest next to her. No doubt an impressive monument was raised, but all trace of it has disappeared, and the great community which he virtually founded is ignorant of the precise spot in which he was laid to rest.

By the middle of the eighteenth century it was necessary to purchase a further plot immediately adjacent. This was in Three Colt Yard which subsequently became Colt Yard and eventually, the present name, Alderney Road.

On Sunday 9 July 1939 Chief Rabbi Dr J. H. Hertz consecrated a Memorial Stone to commemorate the Founders, Rabbis and Lay Leaders of the Anglo-Jewish community in its early years.5 Dr Cecil Roth gave an address in which he brought to life the events of yesteryear:

A feature of the Cemetery in the old days was a sort of wheeled sentry-box, which was moved about the ground and from which new graves were watched for some nights after a burial had taken place., as a precaution against the activities of the so-called 'Resurrection men' who supplied Medical Schools with corpses for dissection. Members of the Congregation, in pairs and armed with blunderbusses, took turns to perform this cold and rather gruesome duty, and in the records of the Synagogue there are preserved rosters of the roll of duty 'for the guarding of the House of Life'.6

Roth continued by drawing attention to that delicacy of feeling which has characterised the United Synagogue Burial Society from its earliest days that:

Up to a time within living memory, all the near relatives attending a funeral were supplied with black "mourners' cloaks". These continued to be worn throughout the week of mourning, covering up any deficiency of dress, and thus, in accordance with true Jewish sentiment, protecting the feelings of the poor.

In this God's Acre lie the mortal remains of many of the founders and prominent members of the London Ashkenasi community. Here lie:

Benjamin Levy (founder of the Askenasi community, died 1705) and his second wife (died 1704);

Moses Hart (built at his sole expense the nucleus of the Great Synagogue, died 1756);

Elias Levy (AJ11, a benefactor of the Great Synagogue) and his wife

Judith Levy (AJ10, daughter of Moses Hart, an eccentric known as the Queen of Richmond Green, benevolent donor to the reconstruction of the Great Synagogue which was destroyed on 11 May 1941, died 1803 in her ninety-eighth year);

Aaron Hart (who died in the service of the community after nearly half a century of devoted service, 1709 - 1756, and was the first Chief Rabbi of England);

David Tevele Schiff (AE18, second Chief Rabbi of England, served 1765 - 1791);

The Baal Shem of London, Rabbi Hayim Samuel Jacob de Falk (AF1, 1708-82). The massive chest monument of the Baal Shem, the Cabbalist and mystic, familiar with Cagliostro, has become a place of pilgrimage largely for the Chassidic community of London. Every week two or three of the faithful keep vigil at his grave, on Tisha B'Av a crowd of several hundred come to pray and invoke the memory of England's most famous wunder Rebbe;

Another former Chief Rabbi's name, Hart Lyon, is also mentioned in this ground inasmuch as his son, Rabbi Saul Berlin (d. 1794), ended his troubled life within these shores. The original inscription has long been illegible, but a commemorative plaque has been affixed to the wall nearby (AQ22).

Here, too, were buried Joseph Eliahu HaCohen D'Azevedo, a Sephardi worthy who died in 1705, and whose inscription in 1939 was the oldest then legible; the benevolent Aaron Franks, who was one of the founders of the Board of Deputies of British Jews; Isaac Franks (d. 1734) who left an annuity for the 'keeper of the ground' (see CT1); Naphtali Franks, who collaborated with Sir John Fielding in correcting some of the 'inner city' problems which then confronted London; Phila, daughter of Aaron Franks, who married Moses Franks. She was one of the beauties of her day and her portrait was painted both by Gainsborough as well as by Reynolds. The latter also painted her husband in 1761 for a fee of £21.

Illustrious Jewish physicians are buried here: Hart Wesssels (d. 1767); Nathan Mitchell (d. 1785); Hayyim ben Meshullam Bondi of Prague, whose tombstone proclaims the traditional Jewish epithet for a doctor of medicine, Rophe Bar, Pure Doctor (BH4, d. 1794); and probably also Meyer Low Schomberg, physician to the Great Synagogue, who was the father of the naval officer who covered Wolfe's landing at Quebec.

Most of these names are recorded by Lysons in his Environs of London (1795). He adds Abraham Franks, 1748, Jacob Hart, Gent. of New York, 1785, Joseph Levy, merchant, 1722, Sarah Phillips, aged 90, 1733, Judith Joseph, aged 90, 1771, Michael Adolphus, Esq, 1785, Naphtali Hart Myers, Esq, 1789, Lepy Reuben, aged 95, 1787. He also refers to 'Solomon Shiph, chief Rabbi', 1792.

Lysons, himself, noted that 'in the cemetery of the 'Dutch' (as he calls the Ashkenasim) Jews the rows are not kept so regularly, and the tombs resemble more those in our burial grounds'. Indeed, Mr Charles Tucker suggests that when a stone or chest tomb was needed, the family went to a stonemason who supplied memorials for churchyards and picked out what most closely matched their needs from what the mason had in stock. This would account for the wide variety of typical eighteenth century funereal motifs on the stones:- the grave-digger's tools and the hour glass (AH20, AN3, AN4, AQ5, CH5, CH7, CM1); skull and crossbones (AQ5, AQ7, CA6, CE2, CE4); curtains and ribbons, coffins, cut trees (AA11, AA12, AN8, AQ5, AQ6, CT3); cherubs and possibly dancing men (AL1, CM1); possibly flowers (AG4); as well as specifically Jewish motifs such as the priestly hands raised in benediction (AG16, AL1, BD3, BH8, CK6) and the ewer and basin of the Levites (AF9, AN3, AN6, CB7).

Only one or two examples of East European tombstone motifs are now extant though there may well have been more at one time: a pair of hares (AL1) and an open book (CM1). There is nothing remotely like the extensive folk art depicted in D. Goberman, Jewish Tombstones in Ukraine and Moldova (Moscow, 1993).

A notable addition to our knowledge of eighteenth and early nineteenth century London Jewish life is to be found on some tombstones. Apparently, Jewish Friendly Societies not only gave money to their members when they were sick or when sitting shivah but also erected tombstones (AQ19, BA1, BH5, BE1, BF8, BG2, CK8) for them. There was even a women's Jewish Friendly Society (BC7).

Unfortunately, acid rain and London's traditional atmosphere wreak havoc with tombstones. Cecil Roth writing to the Secretary of the United Synagogue in 1935 lamented that 'monuments perfectly recognisable thirty years ago have now decayed beyond recognition'. Regular visitors to the ground can see the stones disintegrating before their very eyes. Would that this work had been done a hundred years ago! A few inscriptions of outstanding people have been preserved in external sources, but for the most part they have disappeared for ever. One would like to know what the Baal Shem inscribed on his wife's tomb which Lysons declared to be 'so composed thatit has puzzled the most learned Rabbis', the tomb itself was not identifiable in 1903 when Chief Rabbi Dr H. Adler lectured to the Jewish Historical Society of England on the Baal Shem of London.

Today, the cemetery is like an oasis in a world of bustle and modernity. It is beautifully kept by the United Synagogue and it radiates an atmosphere of peace and tranquillity.

This cemetery, and the adjoining one of the Sephardim, are not only part of the history of English Jewry, but are now part of the history of England.

The following I ask for myself: no garment which I have upon me shall be taken away, just as they find me, they shall bury me in some forest, or in any place they find, only it shall be far away from the graves of other people. And I ask everybody whose heart has been touched by the fear of God, not to talk behind my coffin on account of my having asked for this, for he cannot know the reason for this stipulation; however, even those who speak blamingly about me, shall be forgiven - only if they do as I ask).

(The Hebrew abbreviation for 'as Sabbath began' is Heh, Caf, which stands for hachnasat callah, ie 'as the bride enters'. In Talmudic times we are told that on the Sabbath eve Rabbi Hanina used to sing, 'Come and we will go out to meet the Bride, the Queen!' (Baba Kama 32a-b). From the 16th century Psalms 95 - 99, and 29 were added as a Psalmic preface together with the poem Lecha Dodi Likrat Callah - Come my friend to meet the Bride. This poem, set to innumerable tunes, was composed by Rabbi Solomon HaLevi Alkabets, a member of the kabbalist coterie in sixteenth-century Safed. In 18th century English synagogues, this addition to the prayers was often accompanied by musical instruments and a full choir, especially at the dedication of a synagogue or some other notable occasion).
