Collection Overview

From the Collection:

The collection contains materials pertaining to the Solomons and Weinberg families. Materials primarily relate to sisters Maude C. Solomons, Kate Cecile Solomons, and Augusta I. Solomons. The majority of the collection consists of correspondence among the sisters, exchanging news on their health, daily lives, family updates, and birthday wishes, as well as assorted ephemera, including receipts, prescriptions, and obituaries. Also included is the typescript "The Solomons Home for the Aged. Something about the Misses Solomons," providing background on the three sisters and the home Maude C. Solomons founded, as well as a copy of Maude's will. Items pertaining to the Weinberg family include an 1874 marriage contract between Rose Levi and Aaron Weinberg, a family tree beginning with Milton Weinberg (son of Aaron and Rosa Weinberg), the obituary of Rosa Weinberg, and a letter written from Rosalie to Ethel "Monkey" Weinberg discussing the Weinberg and Levi families. The Solomon and Weinberg families are related through the marriage of Horace Harby to Emma Henrietta Solomons (1847-1913), and the marriages of his niece, Flora Levy Moses (1880-1948) to Jacob Albert Weinberg (1879-1952).
