JCR-UK is a genealogical and historical website covering all Jewish communities and
congregations throughout the British Isles and Gibraltar, both past and present.

Officers of the Synagogue
from 1824 to 2002

The scroll-down table below lists known lay officers of the Bristol Hebrew Congregation. The table has been assembled from the pre-1900 information provided by Judith Samuel (Jews in Bristol, Redcliffe Press of Bristol, ISBN 1-900178-16-8) together with post-1900 data extracted from the Congregation's Minute Books. In a number of instances the dates are approximate.
