  • Jewish members of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee

    The article below, whilst interesting in its own right, caught my attention as it names the Jewish members of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee (WVC). The article states that the committee had 16 members and names the Jewish members as:
    J Aarons
    John Cohen
    Henry A Harris
    M Isaacs
    M Mitchell
    B Barnett
    S Jacobs
    B Harris


    The article is from the Jewish Standard of 14 September 1888:

      Thanks for posting these articles. It's interesting that this identification of the writer of the Evening News letter (which was published simply as from "G. H. H.") as G. H. Hutt (P. C. George Henry Hutt) was published in an American Jewish newspaper on the same day as in the (London) Jewish World. Presumably there was a common source.
