Abstract:
Chartered in June 1900, the United Brothers Synagogue, Chevra Agudas Achim, provides the focus for understanding the migration of a predominately Eastern European Jewish community from Long Island to Rhode Island at the turn of the 20th century. This study illuminates the acculturation process of Eastern European Jews into American society and documents the historical foundations of a changing small Jewish community in Rhode Island.
