| 2014 | PHOTOGRAPH IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ BIOGRAPHY - Both long and short biographies in my collection. Anne Joseph ------------------------ The birth of Jacob is recorded in the prayerbook of his father, Henry Joseph: Jacob Joseph Born Wednesday Morning 14th Sept 1814, the last day of the year 5574 (i.e. 29 Elul) Named Monday 8 July 1816, 12 day of Tamuz 5576 by Doctor Joel Hart according to the Jewish Ritual ------------------------ Gravestone inscription for Jacob Henry Joseph at the Spanish and Portuguese Cemetery on Mount Royal reads:- "And of Jacob Henry Joseph, born in Berthier 14 Sep 1814, died in Montreal 28 Feb 1907. 'Mark the perfect man and behold the upright for the end of that man is peace'." b.14 Sept 1814 - Wed 29 Elul 5574 d.28 Feb 1907 - Thurs 14 Adar 5667 ------------------------ Jacob Henry's wife, Sara Gratz Moses Joseph, and 5 of their 7 children were also buried at the S&P Mount Royal cemetery. ------------------------ Jacob Henry and Sara registered their first two children, their daughters Rea and Lizzie Lee, at the Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue. They also registered their two sons Henry and Horace at the synagogue, but for some reason did not register their remaining three daughters, Ada, Matilda and Carrie. There is, however, a record of Carrie's birth in 1894, when she was into her 30s. ------------------------ From Military "C" Series (cards) at Canadian National Archives, Ottawa:- Joseph, Jacob H. - G.O. - Apptd Capt., 1st Battn, Volunteer Militia, L.C. Montreal. 6-12-1837 ... p.25 ... C.1203, 1/2P. ------------------------ DORCHESTER HOUSE The 1951 obituary for Henry Gratz Joseph states "He resided at 3507 Mountain street since the family moved from its Dorchester street residence in 1913 to make way for the C.N.R. mountain tunnel." ------------------------ In the collection of Ian Collins is a 5 x 8 inch page written on both sides. It is in unrecognized handwriting, on letterhead of St. Ermins Hotel, St. James' Park, S.W. (Telephones: Westminster 5707-8-9-10 - Telegrams: Erminites, London) . It reads: TRUE COPY SALE DORCHESTER ST PROPERTY Price $300,000.00 on account of which $50,000.00 has been paid - The balance of $250,000.00 to be paid as follows. $25,000.00 July 8th 1912 $25,000.00 March 8th 1913 Balance $200,000.00 within five years, with the right of payments at any time the whole balance of price or any portion, not less than in sums of $25,000.00, or given the Vendor at least 30 days previous notice in writing with interest on the said balance at 5 1/2 pc per annum - Payable half yearly " The original of this in filed in the binder for Jacob Henry Joseph. ------------------------ A partial clipping from the collection of Ian Collins, undated and unidentified, is filed in the binder for Jacob Henry Joseph. It states: "St. George's Home Next - Its Sale to C.N.R. Will Follow Joseph Property. The purchase money for the Joseph property on Dorchester street, said to be close to three hundred thousand dollars, was paid over yesterday by agents supposed to represent the Canadian Northern Railway. Retification is also expected to be given within a few days by the board of directors of St. George's Home of the sale of their property on Mansfield and Lagauchetiere street, for which" .................... (end of clipping). ------------------------ In a letter headed Montreal 1st April (but without a year!), Henry Joseph writes to his sister Rea. Judging by what Henry says, this letter seems to have been written around the time of the sale of Dorchester House, which would make it 1913, since it refers to the necessity for a lot of people to remove personal possessions. There is also a reference to "two Estates", which presumably refers to their parents Jacob Henry and Sarah Joseph. There is also an interesting bit about the difference in letter-writing comments and attitude between their sister Lizzie and Rea. The letter reads: My dear Rea - I was very glad to receive your letter this morning. There is no necessity for removing any of your things at once, only we have to send formal notices to all. We will look after them for you with pleasure. It is a pleasure to get such a nice letter from you, after the insulting ones Lizzie writes. I am alone here with Baby & Kathleen, as soon as we have arranged the succession duties with the government and paid the bills etc., will explain more fully your position. In the meantime I might say that as far as I can see you will have more than any of us out of the two Estates in spite of all the grossly exaggerated reports that one hears. With much love to you - Your affec brother, Henry. ------------------------ | Joseph, Jacob Henry (I2548)

His case is thus described by Mr. Nurke, in a speech before the House of Commons, May 14 1781: "He had formerly lived on Rhode Island; and, because he had imported tea contrary to the command of the Americans, he was stripped of all he was worth, and driven out of the island; his brother shared in his misfortunes, but did not survive them; his death increased the cares of the survivor, as he got an additional family, in his brother's children, to provide for. Another Jew married his sister; and both of them following the British Army, had for their loyalty some lands given them, along with some other American Refugees, on Long Island, by Sir William Howe. They built a kind of fort there, to defend themselves, but it was soon attacked and carried by the Americans, and not a man who defended it escaped either death or captivity; the Jew's brother-in-law fell during the attack; he survived, and had then the family of his deceased brother-in-law, his mother, and sister, to support. He settled at St. Eustatius, where he maintained his numerous family, and had made some money, when he and his family were once more ruined bu the commanders of the British force."

| 2020 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The Edward Greene Malbone miniature of Rachel (Gratz) Solomon is reported upon by Hannah London in her 1926 book Portraits of Jews. At that time it was owned by Mrs. John Hunter of Savannah, Georgia. The Gilbert Stuart portrait is also reported upon by Hannah London in the same book. At that time it was owned by Henry Joseph of Montreal. ------------------------ The Gilbert Stuart portrait of Rachel was painted in 1806 on canvas, 28 x 24 inches. Hannah London writes that this Stuart portrait of surpassing beauty was (in 1926) in the possession of Henry Joseph of Montreal. He died on 31 January 1951. She continues by saying that it is almost impossible to set down in words the unusual charm of her face with its expressive eyes and delicate features, the graceful sweep of her blond curls, the contour of her neck and shoulders, all of which combine to make a portrait of surpassing loveliness. In comparison with her sister, Rebecca, she had no 'history'. She reared a large family and died at the age of forty in 1823. The miniature is by Edward Green Malbone. Source: Hannah R. London | Gratz, Rachel (I1840)

| 2021 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The George P. A. Healy portrait of Joseph Gratz is reported upon by Hannah London in her 1926 book Portrait of Jews. At that time it was owned by Henry Joseph of Montreal. The portrait of Joseph Gratz by George Peter Alexander Healy is unmistakably a rugged piece of work, a characterization of a dignified looking man in a dark suit and white collar. He was secretary of the Congregation Mikve Israel in Philadelphia for a long time, was a director of the Institution for the Instruction of the Deaf and Dumb in that city, and an early member of the first City Troop of the Philadelphia Club. Like his brothers Hyman and Simon, he remained unmarried. In view of the numerous and interesting details of the Gratz family, it is surprising that more of his life has not been recorded. In 1926, this portrait was owned by Henry Joseph of Montreal. Henry died on 31 January 1951. Source: Hannah R. London | Gratz, Joseph (I1842)

| 2022 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The Gilbert Stuart portrait of Judah Hays is reported upon by Hannah London in her 1926 book Portrait of Jews. At that time it was owned by Mrs. William C. Preston of Richmond, Virginia. The portrait was painted in Boston in about 1810, and measures about 18 x 23 inches. This portrait was partially destroyed, but has been restored. Mrs. Richard Frothingham O'Neil of Boston owns a copy of the original. Judah received a good education, which was further enhanced by the study of French in Europe, whither he set out in 1796. Subsequent trips were made there on business, and on the death of his father he inherited a fortune representing large real estate holdings. To him belongs the dinstinction of being one of the founders of the Boston Athenaeum. Possessed of wealth and culture, it is unfortunate that he did not live longer to enjoy its benefits; his life was cut short, while on a pleasure trip to Florida, by an accidental drowning. His portrait represents a handsome young man of romantic countenance, with wavy brown hair and blue eyes and regular features. Source: Hannah London ------------------------ Once again, there is a discrepancy in the dates of birth. Hannah London has him born in 1772, whereas Stern says two years earlier. Both agree that he died in 1832, which would have made him 60 or 62. | Hays, Judah (I1691)

| 2023 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The Gilbert Stuart portrait of Miriam (Simon) Gratz was painted in Philadelphia in 1802. It measured 28 x 24 inches. Miriam is shown with a dainty lace cap, worn by the mothers of that generation, a think white fichu about her throat, and hands folded in matronly fashion. Common sense gleams from those clear eyes and intelligent countenance, a thoroughly practical and livable character of dignity and calm, modelled with care and elegance. In 1926, Henry Joseph owned this painting. He died on 31 January 1951. Source: Hannah R. London - Portraits of Jews ------------------------ Mikveh Israel cemetery records note that Miriam was born Miriam Simons. The record also notes that she was 58 at the time of her death on 12 September 1808. | Simon, Miriam (I1798)

| 2024 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The Gilbert Stuart portrait of Solomon Moses is reported upon by Hannah London in her 1926 book Portrait of Jews. At that time it was owned by Henry Joseph of Montreal. ------------------------ In July 1805, Solomon and Hyman Moses visited Saratoga Springs, New York, at the same time as the sisters, Rebecca and Rachel Gratz, were there. In her biography of Rebecca Gratz, Dianne Aston describes Solomon on this occasion as Rachel's beau. But it seems that Rachel's sister, Sarah, did not like Solomon. Rebecca wrote to Sarah urging her to accept Rachel's choice for the sake of peace in the family. Rachel was afraid to confront Sarah, and asked Rebecca to intervene, which she did with these words in a letter "the whole of (Solomon Moses's) life will be to promote her happiness ... cheer her heart and be ... a comfort. I hope our parents won't be unhappy ... they shouldn't ... Sol is universally esteemed her ... and he really appears ... affectionate, kind, attentive and watchful." The 31-year old Solomon Moses married 23-year old Rachel Gratz in New York on 24 June 1806, and Rebecca stayed in New York throughout the summer to help Rachel get settled in her new home. Rebecca and Rachel remained close, and when Rachel died in 1823 at the age of 40, when their eldest child was only 16, it was the unmarried Rebecca who stepped into the mothering role for Solomon and Rachel's children. Solomon outlived his wife by 34 years, and so lived to see their children's many successes. In their wedding year, 1806, Edward Greene Malbone painted a miniature of Solomon Moses, having done one of the bride in 1804. In the painting, Solomon is wearing a black coat, white waistcoat, stock and tie. He is shown to have black hair and pale blue eyes. The background is white, with gray at the top and touches of blue, green and purple at the lower left and right. In 1953, when Hannah London wrote her illustrated book Miniatures of Early American Jews, the one of Solomon Moses was owned by Kathleen Moore. She had inherited it from her cousin (actually 1st cousin, once removed), the late Rachel Gratz Nathan of New York, whose mother, Rebecca Moses, was a daughter of Solomon and Rachel (Gratz) Moses. The miniature was lent by Miss Nathan to the Metropolitan Museum of Art for an exhibition in the spring of 1927. It was also in an exhibition of Malbone's work at the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1929. Kathlen Moore died in 1976, and the miniature was inherited by Nancy Erdrich. Nancy died in November 2003, but a few years earlier had donated the miniature to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

Celine JOSEPH | | Kathleen MOORE Sybil JOSEPH m.Wm. SEBAG-MONTEFFIORE | Nancy (Sebag-Montefiore) ERDRICH Interestingly, there was a drawing made of Solomon Moses dated 1798, when he would have been 23 or 24. There is no reason to doubt the authenticity of this drawing, but Solomon looks much older in the earlier image. The drawing, sent to Hannah London by a great granddaughter of Solomon Moses named Mary Porter Scott of Saint Louis, was signed by the artist "Volney 1798". Hannay London did some research, and stated "Doubtless this 'Volney' is Valdenuit who often assisted (Fevret de) Saint-Mémin, and the answer to Miss Scott's inquiry is found on the engraved portrait of Solomon Moses, reduced from the original drawing, in the Saint-Mémion Collection, Morgan Library, which reads 'St. Memin and Valdenuit No. 27 Pine St. N. York'." Perhaps the reason Solomon looks older in the earlier portrait is because his hair is long, light in colour and quite shaggy. Six years later he is spruced up with neat, shorter, dark hair. Maybe the bride did not like shaggy?? Gilbert Stuart painted Solomon Moses in 1796, on a canvas measuring 28 x 24 inches. In 1926 the portrait was owned by Henry Joseph of Montreal. Hannah London notes in Portraits of Jews that Solomon Moses was no less handsome than his beautiful wife, Rachel Gratz; indeed there are few Stuart portraits with which this one does not favourably compare. In the refined oval of the face, the glowing eyes, chiselled nose, mouth, and chin, the absolute freedom and life quality of the pose, is the quintessence of Stuart's art. Solomon was a merchant of no small importance in New York by 1796, and he and his wife had reared a large family. Their daughter Sarah married Jacob Henry Joseph and it is their son, Henry, who owned the painting in 1926. Henry died on 31 January 1951. | Moses, Dr. Solomon (I1841)

| 2025 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The portrait by Charles Peale Polk of Barnard Gratz is reported upon by Hannah London in her 1926 book Portraits of Jews and the miniature in her 1953 book Miniatures of Early American Jews. The portrait at that time was owned by Dr. I. Minis Hays of Philadelphia and the miniature was owned by Dr. Jacob R. Marcus. Hannah London writes: "Barnard Gratz was born in Germany in 1738. He went to Philadelphia when he was about seventeen years of age, and entered later into a business partnership with his brother Michael. Together they engaged in many financial enterprises including the exploitation and development of western Pennsylvania, Virginia, Illinois and Kentucky. ".....From the beginning of hostilities between the Colonies and England, the Jews took an active part in the patriotic cause. Gratz was one of the merchants of Philadelphia to sign the Non-Importation Resolutions in 1765. After the outbreak of the Revolutionary War, he took the oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Mr. Gratz became a trustee of Mikveh Israel Congregation, Phiadelphia. He died in Baltimore, April 20, 1801. "The unframed miniature of Barnard Gratz is a tiny piece of work (1 7/8ths x 1 1/2 inches). An inscription on a bit of paper on the back of the miniature indicates the name of the sitter, and the artist as Charles Peale Polk. It came from the estate of the late Albert Rosenthal, a well-known artist of Philadelphia, and was bought at auction in New York from Mr. Benjamin Rosenzweig." In her write-up, Hannah London continues: "The sitter is shown wearing a plum-colored coat, with white stock and frill. He has gray hair and blue eyes and the background is in blue-gray. "Charles Peale Polk, 1767-1822, also painted a large portrait of Barnard Gratz, which is reproduced in Portraits of Jews....." | Gratz, Barnard (I1784)

| 2026 | PORTRAIT IN SCRAPBOOK ------------------------ The portrait of Rachel (Levy) Seixas is reported by Hannah London in her 1926 book Portraits of Jews is attributed to John Wollaston by Mr. Lawrence Park. At that time, it was owned by N. Taylor Phillips of New York who is said to have been Rachel's grandson (AJ Note: I have not yet established this lineage). She is represented in a life-size painting to the waist, turned to her right and facing the spectator. She wears an exquisite ivory-white satin gown. The tight-fitting bodice is trimmed with wide lace, very delicately rendered. The short sleeves with bands of satin at the elbow are finished with wide white lace. Her dark hair, over which a dainty lace cap is worn, is brushed back from her forehead and worn low at the neck. Her portrait, Mr. Phillips says, has often been greatly admired for its beauty. Source: Hannah London ------------------------ According to Malcolm Stern, Rachel Levy was born on 27 February 1719. This is the date I believe to be most likely the accurate one. (For some unknown reason, FTM insists of recording 1718/19.) Hannah London gives the year of her birth as 1710, but I doubt that this is true, that would have made her 30 at the time of her marriage to Isaac Mendes Seixas in 1740, and age 46 at the time of her youngest child's birth. ------------------------ Rachel Levy was the oldest of seven children born to Grace Mears Levy, second wife of Moses Raphael Levy. Rachel Levy was well loved throughout the entire Levy-Franks circle, even though the children from Moses's first marriage hated their step-mother. Rachel caused a social uproar in the New York Jewish community when she married London merchant Isaac Mendes Seixas, who was of Sephardic descent, in 1740. Their union crossed contemporary social, status and ethnic lines that divided eighteenth-century Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jewry. The young couple moved to New Jersey where Isaac opened a "Small Country Store". The happy pair eventually produced eight children.
